Good Tuesday all-
Today is going to be rather miserable, I'm afraid, as rain will be developing throughout the day. The rain will steadily get heavier and more widespread through the day until it's pouring everywhere for later tonight, by the end of which most areas should recieve .5-1" of rain. This is in association with a coastal low that...had this been January...would have produced 5-10" of snow...we're not that far off from the big ones now! Moving ahead, another rainstorm is likely for Thursday night. By the end of the week, we'll have been totally drenched...but we'll dry out for the weekend- though it'll be rather nippy as temps won't be anywhere near 60...in other words, it'll be almost exactly average for mid-November.
My eyes are watching for the first major snowstorm of the winter, but nothing catches them at the moment.
WSI has released the winter outlook for the year, forecasting above normal temps and precip. What this means is likely that areas along and north of I-84 (where the elevation is 500ft+) will likely experience above average snow, while the shoreline will likely have below average snow as rain falls there instead of the white stuff.
In the Atlantic- Tropical Storm Kate formed yesterday, and now packs 60mph winds as it moves away from the Bahamas and poses no threat to land (because of the storm we're getting today).
The Pacific remains quiet.
Today in weather history- November 10, 1988- An unnaturally strong low in Ontario buffets western New York with extreme winds, which gust as high as 70mph in Niagara Falls, NY. Four people are injured in Rome, NY when a tree falls on their car.
