Tuesday, November 13, 2012 7:05 P.M. Hey everybody! I hope everybody had a nice Veteran’s Day weekend. I didn’t do much… besides sleeping of course. Funny story actually… I was going to bed last night (at my house) and our dog was already asleep on my bed. I tried to move him… but that guy […]

I Am Actually Looking At Weather Models

Thursday, October 11, 2012 2:52 P.M. I’m a weather fanatic, and most of you know that. But during the last 80 days, I’ve been out of touch with my meteorological side. Back in September, if you asked me what the weather was going to be a week from now, I would have no clue. All […]

So Long, Treadmill

Saturday, October 6, 2012 4:02 P.M. It’s been a pretty boring run, but we are approaching the end I love running, but I absolutely hate treadmills.

Bye Bye Dry Streak

Saturday, September 8, 2012 9:07 P.M. As I write this blog, I’m listening to Miles Davis’ and John Coltrane’s famous rendition of “Bye Bye Blackbird.” It’s a wonderful song, but as I listen to Miles’ soulful tone, I can’t help but feel a bittersweet sentiment in my soul.

Actual Pattern Change!

December 20, 2011 4:55 P.M. A week and a half ago, I posted a big blog about how things were gonna change. We were gonna get out of this inversion, get some rain in the lowlands, and start building some serious snowpack in the mountains. Like Obama, not much ended up changing. I love Obama […]

Pattern Change?

Wednesday, December 7, 20111:05 P.M. The weather around here for the past ten days has been incredibly boring. I’d venture to say it has been even more boring than hundreds of left turns on the Nascar track. Sorry Nascar fans. But there is some good news!

Yesterday’s Weather, Turning Colder

Saturday, November 11, 2011 1:59 P.M. Before I elaborate on what I think the weather will be like, I’d like to point out the strength of the front we saw yesterday.
