Wednesday Post...

>> Wednesday, February 14, 2007

My apologies for not having any posts Monday or Tuesday. Those days were dedicated primarily to my family.

Back in the saddle at work today, and a few thoughts on my mind today.

  • Wow! The wedge yesterday evening and last night was impressive. I kept watching the temp at our house drop, then drop some more, and then drop some more. We ended up at 35 by early evening....no model anywhere had as close to that cold. The wedge held for most of the area. Good news since it kept us safe from all of the severe weather to our south and southwest.
  • Big winter storm rolling through the Northeast today. Some places seeing over a foot of snow.
  • I have to say...that system was handled more poorly by the models than any I can recently remember....and in turn, us meteorologists really struggled with this one as well. This is one to learn from our mistakes after all of the data us evaluated, dust ourselves off, and try again next time.
  • Lots of cold weather through Monday for us. Highs and lows will be well below average...on many days, at least 10 degrees below average. That is impressive stuff!
  • Clipper system will move through this weekend. I still am going with the idea of some light snow or snow flurries being possible mainly Saturday night.

"no model anywhere had as close to that cold."

...then again, when do the models get CAD right in these parts?
Answer: almost never
