4/14/11

47.5 out there, not much colder than I had anticipated.  12 mph wind, but from the East, not the Northeast like I thought; also, it's overcast, not partly cloudy.  Ugly weather, I say, especially for spring.  Nebraska is getting storms right now, including snow, so at least we're not Nebraska.  There's a high pressure system to our north.  There's a stationary front coming down the extent of the Rockies; in Oklahoma the warm air has won out over the cold, and there's a bulge of a warm front extending just south of Indiana; at Ohio it becomes a stationary front once more.  Seriously interesting jet stream map; the lines are pretty horizontal over us, but before they reach us, they take a severe dip such that over Kansas and Missouri the stream moves in a counterclockwise circle.  What do you call a through that tilts sideways? And what does it all mean?
For our neck of the woods tomorrow, temperature stays constant, clouds stay constant, but the wind; oh, the wind; East (blah blah blah for man or beast): 18 to 24 mph.
