Well, it's much colder than yesterday. I was correct in my wind and precipitation prediction but it started raining/snowing later than I thought. This large cool down in temps because of the location of the low pressure system. As the wind from the system spins counter clockwise we first experienced warm tropical air yesterday and now we are getting the northern continental air which is much colder but won't be too bad for us here in the valley. For tomorrow expect warmer temps and lower wind speeds with more clouds as a high pressure system moves in from Canada.

Look for this cold weather to linger into the early parts of tomorrow but should soon move on and warmer temps will move start moving in, again. Winter just doesn't want to end this year but I highly doubt there is anything significant about it. One year out of hundreds isn't significant and two years ago we had an extremely short and warm winter. I suspect that this may be the beginning of a trend but I hope I'm wrong.
