GOOD AFTERNOON: Greetings from Starkville, Mississippi and Mississippi State University, site of the fourth annual Southeast Severe Storms Symposium. Hold on just a minute. It is a day of gurus talking about all kinds of tropical and severe weather. Wait a minute. I get to go speak about my storm chasing adventures last Spring. For thirty minutes, we will go from gurus to a yahoo. Be right back...
A BIT WINDY OUT THERE: Can you say breezy? I knew you could. It is so funny how accurate those weather truisms can be. After all, it is early March. You know, the roaring in like a lion thing. Winds have been gusting to over 25 mph at times across the area, prompting the issuance of a Lake Wind Advisory. An early season boaters or fisherpeople should exercise caution in the gusty winds today.
TONIGHT: Temperatures have been nice today, with readings in the 60s over the area. That fast moving cold front that is zipping across the state will bring in some slightly cooler and drier air for tonight. Readings overnight will dip into the middle 30s in most locations.
TOMORROW: Sunday promises to be a nice day with lots of sunshine and mild temperatures after that somewhat chilly start. Highs tomorrow will top out in the lower 60s.
TO MONDAY AND BEYOND: Alabama will continue under the influence of an amplified upper air pattern through much of the coming week that features a large trough over the East Coast. This puts our area on the edge of a northwesterly flow aloft. We call those little low pressure systems like the one passing to our northeast today Alberta Clippers, because they originate over that Canadian Province and dive southeast over the Great Lakes. They can be quite the potent little cyclones.
Our next weather maker will be another of these Clipper systems. By Sunday night, it will be showing up on weather maps over northern Minnesota. It will dive southeastward during the day on Monday, propelling another cold front our way. Showers will break out Monday afternoon across the area, with a good area of rain and some embedded thunderstorms moving across the area Monday night. It does not look like things will get out of hand with any severe weather. Tuesday will be blustery and cooler behind the front. Another system will deliver more rain chances late on Wednesday, followed closely by another system on Friday.
ON THIS DATE IN 2001: Much of the Northeast braced for a heralded storm that was supposed to bring up to 3 feet of snow in the corridor from Philadelphia to New York City, but the storm fizzled. Flights were cancelled and schools closed but only a few inches of snow fell in New York City and even less in Philadelphia. Up to 30 inches of snow did fall in some inland locations of New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island, but for the most part, the noreaster was a non-occurrence. The missed forecast called for one New Jersey mayor to call for meteorologists to be held accountable for missed forecasts. Conan OBrien reported the story, saying that there was only a 30 percent chance of that.
