Mild Weather Continues
TODAY'S NUMBERS:
HIGH: 42
LOW: 33
In the last 31 days... 30 of them have been at or above average. The one day we were below average was January 10th... but we were only ONE degree below average... not far off at all! The point is... we are still in the MILD part of the pattern, and still awaiting the arrival of colder air. (See Gary's blog below!)
Meantime, the clouds were slow to lift today, and once they did... the sun was already on its way down! But we were able to jump up to our high of 41 degrees. Tomorrow, look for more clouds, as a storm passes to our south. You can see it on this evening's NAM:

We shouldn't see any rain from this one, but you can already see the clouds advecting into our area tonight:

The high temperature on Sunday will pretty much be determined by how much cloud cover we see. The thicker the clouds, the cooler the temps. Right now we are shooting for 40 or the lower 40s... another cool day. But still above average!! :)
I hope you are enjoying your weekend!

P.S. I think Gary taught Mags how to jump on the couch... because this is her new favorite trick... ;)

you mean you don't let Mags on your couch? labs *love* to be on the couch :)

So I'm learning!! :) We are now letting her on the couch as long as we have a blanket down. I just hate for people to sit on our couch and get hair all over themselves!
(Ok, and I might be a little bit of a neat-freak!)

Hi Jamie!! While the weather is kinda slow I have a question or two to ask you. There was a day early january or late december when in the northern US it was warmer than the southern US. Can you tell me how it is that happened. Also is Jeff Penner kinda the man behind the scenes?? I have seen him do a weather forecast before, but usually he does not do what you, Gary and Brett do. So is it normal that he is not seen but helps with graphics and getting it all together for you guys to put out there for all of us to see?? Monica
MONICA:
Hello, and thanks for blogging with us! To answer your question... Meteorologist Jeff Penner is our weather producer. He helps Gary make the forecast Monday-Friday. He also puts most of the graphics together for the weekday weathercasts. AND he fills in when needed... usually on Saturdays.
I will look into your other question later this week... I think Gary took home our 500mb charts! :)
