I Love This Stuff...

From the National Weather Service Forecast Discussion:
(who reads this stuff besides me and meteorologists?)


.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
SOME DIURNAL STRATOCUMULUS WILL LINGER INTO EARLY THIS EVENING.
OTHERWISE EXPECT ANOTHER MOSTLY CLEAR NIGHT WITH
DIMINISHING WINDSAND A VERY DRY AIRMASS.
THIS WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER NEARLY IDEAL
RADIATIONAL COOLING NIGHT WITH FRIGID
LOW TEMPERATURES EXPECTED.

ONLY FLY IN THE OINTMENT COULD BE A SHORT WAVE
DISTURBANCE SEEN ON THE INFRARED SATELLITE PICTURE
LOOP APPROACHING FROM JUST SOUTH OF HUDSONS BAY CANADA.
HOWEVER THIS SHORT WAVE IS EXPECTED TO PASS WELL
NORTH OF THE REGION WITH LIMITED MOISTURE.
LOWS TONIGHT SHOULD BE FAIRLY SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHTS.

"DIURNAL STRATOCUMULUS?" I love it!

They're talking about clouds, right?

"Only fly in the ointment"? Is that a technical phrase?

So, there's going to be some clouds sometime and it's going to get
wicked cold and then we might see some precipitation, likely snow.

I'm pretty good at this, don't you think?
One undergrad course in meteorology and I'm ready for the big time!

I think I'll keep my day job, though. Just in case things don't work out.
