Cold Gone For Now...

Sorry I have not blogged, but I was in Indiana on a family emergency. High pressure has shifted to the east and south winds are bringing back warmer air & the Gulf muggies. Over night fog is likely to become a problem in spots thru the weekend as several fronts approach but fail to push thru us. In fact, the upper flow will keep the current bitter cold far to our north with no real cold likely for the next 7-10 days. There are signs that the first 2 weeks of February could bring back the east coast trough and a return to colder conditions down to the Gulf Coast. Still plenty of time to get some of the white stuff before Spring arrives. Be patient you snow freaks!

The American Meteorological Society is coming to town next week and they have invited me to be on a panel discussing Climate Change. I'm sure the deck will be stacked against me. Sunday noon to 4 PM at the Convention Center will be the AMS WeatherFest, a science fair that kicks off their annual meeting. Come by and say hello.

Sorry to hear about the emergency, hope all is well now! Re: the AMS and climate change, according to Anthony Watt's blog, a George Soros-funded activist group is pushing hard to get meteorologists to start preaching climate change. You are listed as a "denier" on the site, so congratulations. :-) But as the post suggests, you might want to let the legal department know you are being defamed professionally.
