Friday, September 17th


TGIF! We have made it through another week and the weekend is upon us! The weather has been very tranquil for the last few weeks and appears to continue to be the trend through the weekend and into early next week. The NWS is calling for mostly clear skies with temperatures in the 60's during the day and the 30's overnight.

I have borrowed this excerpt from the NWS's Forecast Discussion that was posted at 5:00 a.m.:

LEGITIMATELY COLD AIR IS PROGGED TO MOVE SOUTH FROM THE NORTH POLE
AND THEN SLIDE DOWN THE WEST COAST BY THE END OF MID RANGE WITH A
520 LOW SUPPLYING THE ENERGY. THIS IS A CHANGE FROM THE PREVIOUS
MODEL RUN FROM THE GFS. THIS IS ACTUALLY MORE IN LINE WITH THE
ECMWF. THIS OF COURSE REMAINS TO BE SEEN BUT IF THIS DOES PAN OUT
THEN IT WILL BECOME A QUICK TRANSITION FROM INDIAN SUMMER TO FALL.

If this holds true, we could be in for some cooler temperatures at the end of the mid-range forecast. I must say, while I have been enjoying the sun and warm weather, I am ready for some fall-like temps!

Current Conditions at 6:30 a.m.:

Temperature: 31 degrees
Skies: Partly Cloudy
RH: 86%
BP: 30.15 and steady
Sunrise: 7:19 a.m.
Sunset: 8:09 p.m.
