Photo at bottom was taken by Art Rangno looking south from Catalina before the storms got to the mountains. There was a very pronounced shelf cloud leading the storms and it had a very low cloud base. So my guess about all this is that the photo at top shows the shelf cloud impinging onto the mountain. The Doppler velocity at the same time (below) indicates radial velocities were all outbound – note that the height of the 1st tilt is well above what is shown in the photo at top. Brides would contact him about the suitability of dates for outdoor weddings; the local newspaper owner checked in with him about returning to Richmond from Florida at a time when a major storm was predicted. There was some discussion among local weather watchers as to whether this might have been a wall cloud – a feature often associated with severe thunderstorms with rotation.

First of all, the next 10 days will all feature temperatures which are mostly above freezing during the day since the pattern fundamentals appear very warm. Instead, following some freezing rain/rain and a few hours of sun and mild weather on Thursday, more rain will move in courtesy of fast moving front Thursday night. I would expect at least one extremely mild day ahead of the rain late next week either next Thursday or Friday. We will get some wind ahead of the front accompanying both the mild weather/rain and this combined with the high dewpoints will do some damage to the base by the time it dries out Friday. The period beginning Friday and ending early Saturday appears to be the time frame where the region will be in between the two jet amplifications. There were definitely thunderstorms occurring – below is CG flash density for 24-hours ending at 07:00 am this morning. If we can convince the powers that be at MRG to stay open later than Easter Sunday, there could another big easter egg discovery courtesy of mother nature.

Please help them here if you can. So with that little tangent fully exercised I can continue with a forecast. The forecast may say 30’s for the valley locations but temps will be substantially colder on the mountain (20’s). Thanks to all the readers for the interest in both the blog and skiing at MRG. And Sony will use it’s Award Ceremony in December to announce next gen games for the PS5. But what we promise is to use our diverse prediction methods to get today’s football predictions from the experts. Sbobet prediction is totally different from other prediction sites. The National Weather Service, stung by its relatively poor performance on Hurricane Sandy and publicity about inferior computers, was given tens of millions of dollars to purchase a world-class weather prediction system and to support forecast model development. On Monday, this strong storm system will eject east and likely make a big splash, weather wise.

The powder days, and they will be powder days by the way given the intensity of this very impressive April cold, given this forecast will be Friday, Sunday and Monday. I looked at as many things as I could Thursday morning and decided that the snow should fall heaviest Thursday (the time of this update) and Thursday night and then again beginning late Saturday through Sunday and Monday. Saturday will feature morning temps below freezing but the snow should quickly respond to above freezing temps before noon. We will ramp it up again for another season late this upcoming fall. With the cold weather now becoming firmly entrenched the big question now becomes when and how much terrain induced snow will fall. 6-12 of these inches may very well fall by first tracks time on Friday. By the first of April the overall picture appears changed and the sustained above normal temperatures may come to an end.

Tourists and visitors to Nigeria and other countries that experience Harmattan should first check with the necessary authorities before proceeding on their journey to these countries. 1. Check the antifreeze. Radar (base scan at 01:00 pm) above shows the line of strong echoes from I-10 north to west side of the mountains. Records (the warm version) in northern and central Vermont in January are defined by 40’s across the mountains and 50’s in many of the valleys. As far as commutes go, I am anticipating an incredibly messy one for Wichita and Amarillo, where blizzard conditions are expected, especially in the latter city. It would still be a little early to be too definite but record warmth is a big possibility at least on one day late next week. The longest United Nations climate talks on record ended in Madrid on Sunday with no decision on how to regulate global carbon markets, postponing the debate for another year. Sunday appears a bit more overcast but again, mostly above freezing and with only a very slight chance for some light rain.
