...Happy New Year!...

GOOD MORNING! Well, yesterday felt a little springlike. Just a
little. Not quite completely springlike, just yet. How do I define
springlike? I just have to feel it. That are no real criteria. Perhaps if
the high clouds had been missing and temperatures had been a couple of
degrees warmer. Not quite springlike, but nice!

OUR WEATHER: It sounds like I have been singing the same song all
week. But at least it has been a pretty nice one. Nothing much has changed
in the forecast department. It should be unseasonably warm through at least
Wednesday with a strong southerly flow. Temperatures will be some 15 or so
degrees above normal. As a matter of fact, overnight lows will be very near
the average daytime highs. The southerly flow will also maintain a moist
airmass, making us prone to shower development. That chance today is very
slight, but will increase a bit tomorrow. Predicting exactly which periods
will be wet is difficult, but Monday looks to have one of the better
chances. Western sections will generally have a slightly better chance.

The front should arrive on Thursday, meaning a good chance of
showers and storms late on Wednesday through Thursday. The front should
hang up to our south. This means that we will turn cooler, but not sharply
so behind the front. In addition, rain and clouds may be slow to leave.

RECORD TICKER: The old ticker of weather records has been busy the
past cwouple of days with all of the unseasonably warm air across the
eastern half of the country. Records were set on Friday afternoon across
parts of Nebraska and Kansas, It was 65 in Lincoln and 63 in Topeka.

ON THIS DATE IN 1997: Heavy rains over northern California spawned
mudslides and swelled rivers. Four to six inches of rain fell north of San
Francisco as another in a series of Pacific storms came ashore. Flooding
near the Russian River was expected to be severe, but not as severe as the
1986 crest of forty nine feet. It was the most destructive storm ever in
the history of Yosemite National Park. Seven inches of rain and melting
snow washed out bridges, roads and facilities. The park was closed for an
extended period.
