A Storm Develops...
TODAY'S NUMBERS:
HIGH: 52
LOW: 39
Hello there!
Perhaps you noticed how we went from mostly sunny... to mostly cloudy as the day went on. This happened when a cold front moved through the region. On the backside of the front, the clouds spilled in... as did slightly cooler temperatures.
Now our attention turns to a developing upper level storm. It is developing RIGHT OVER US!!! You can see it on the 500mb chart below... this is looking up 18,000 feet above us:

Because the storm will stay near us all day Sunday, we will stick with mostly cloudy skies. A spotty light shower or sprinkle is not out of the question through Sunday morning, too. MAYBE even a few flakes mixed in... but that would be it!
This storm will become a MAJOR storm as it heads East through the week. Here is a look at Tuesday afternoon... travel will be messy in the Eastern part of the country:

Another storm is getting it's act together... this one in the tropics. It is TROPICAL STORM GAMMA... the 24th named storm of this record-breaking hurricane season! Here are the latest numbers:
MOTION: ERRATICALLY NORTHWARD.... MOVING SLOW.
WINDS: SUSTAINED AT 45 MPH...WITH HIGHER GUSTS.
PRESSURE: 1004 MB...29.65 INCHES.
And here is the forecasted path of the storm:

Tomorrow... we have a special treat for you!! If you watched last weekend, you saw reporter Chris Hernandez's piece on the 80s. Well we got to talking... and we decided to post old pictures of all of us from the 80s! Right now, me, Keith King and Michelle Liobner are set to go.... we are still working on Cynthia! She CLAIMS she doesn't have any pictures from the 80s... I don't know if I believe her! ;)
And why don't you join us? If you have any really tell-tale 80s pics... send them our way! I want to see BIG hair, and BAD fashion trends! Send them to:

Have a great day!

Excellent discussion!!! Thanks for the response the toher day-the flakes were great even if they didn't amount to anything. It figures this strom would develop over us and then intensify as it moves east-story of the past 15 winters!!! With the positive pna, we will prob. see this for a while-cool shots with all the fun to the east. At least we won't have sunny and 75!!!! Again, excellent discussion.
BILL:
Thanks for posting, and for the nice comments! We really do enjoy blogging with all of you! :) It looks like our boring weather will continue most of the week. And maybe not sunny and 75... but sunny and 60, perhaps?? Wednesday is looking pretty warm. We'll see what happens!
