Finally Feeling Like Spring Again

Observation time: 10:45 am

Precipitation: None
Sky conditions: Partly cloudy
Wind: 9 mph from the northwest
Temperature: 44 degrees

Surface analysis from Intellicast reveals the high pressure front that is sagging into our area from Canada, bringing with it some fairly nice weather today. High pressure is also in control of much of the country, except for the east coast.


Today's Rant

Long gone (mostly) is the snow that piled up last Thursday/Friday and better spring-like weather has returned. Right now we have mostly sunny skies, temperatures in the mid-40's, and a slight wind from the north. An area of high pressure has been pushing its way down in our direction from Canada in the past 24 hours, resulting in the relatively nice weather today. All of the real weather action today is along the east coast, as rain and snow stretch all the way from Florida to Maine, and there isn't much to speak of anywhere else at the moment.

Forecast for Tomorrow

A southwest wind should make for some great weather for tomorrow. Since we are already in the mid-40's today, I would expect a warmer wind to push us easily into the 50's, if not the 60's tomorrow. The way the fronts should be lining up tomorrow, we really shouldn't see any precipitation either, although off to our west there will be some rain. We will just have to wait and see where everything ends up.
