Weather, Climate, and Other Science Topics
Wednesday, July 4, 2012 12:06 A.M. Us meteorologists like to joke that summer starts on July 5th. Well this year, that actually looks like it will be the case. Independence Day won’t be bad at all. We’ll start off with some clouds in the morning but quickly warm up to around 70 or so. The […]
My, my my! It certainly has been a long time. Well, I could enamor you with excuses, but I’m not here to justify my actions (or lack thereof). I’m here to predict the weather. To say that June has been rather chilly is an understatement. To quote Scott Sistek of KOMO, “Today marked the 20th […]
Monday, April 30, 2012 10:49 A.M. I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Sorry. I actually haven’t been doing a whole lot of weather related things lately. The weather has been pretty boring around here (and it probably will be until October), so I’ve been focusing on other earth sciences that interest me. […]
Thursday, April 5, 2012 9:43 A.M. Yes, it may not be Friday, and the weekend may actually be two days away, but I’m still pretty darn excited. Besides it being Easter Sunday, which is always in style, the weather is expected to be nicer than it has been in a while. It certainly won’t be hot […]
Wednesday, April 4, 2012 11:00 A.M. I have a love-hate relationship with Accuweather. On one hand, I love some of the blogs and posts up there, and they are fun to look at. On the other hand, their forecasts are generally pretty inaccurate and they tend not to focus on the West Coast. Today, Accuweather […]
Tuesday, April 3, 2012 1:06 P.M. This has to be a super speedy post, cause I have a chem lab orientation I have to be at by 1:30 and it takes around 10 minutes to walk over there. But hopefully I can get some stuff down before then. I might as well give you guys […]
Monday, April 2, 2012 10:46 A.M. So, my post yesterday was an April Fool’s prank. You gotta admit though, it was pretty good. Anyway, looking over the models this morning, it appears as though some warmer weather will soon be affecting us in the Pacific Northwest. Take a look at the latest model extraction from […]
Sunday April 1, 2012 6:24 P.M. Waterspout over the Florida Keys. Retrieved from NOAA. When I was looking at the radar today, I definitely noticed some rather heavy rain showers. I have a house in Cultus Bay on South Whidbey Island, so I wasn’t too surprised when my neighbor called me to tell me the […]
Friday, March 30, 2012 10:42 A.M. The Mega-Millions jackpot is, as of 10:43 A.M., 640 million dollars. I’ve never bought a lottery ticket, but I’m pretty tempted to do so. Even though it’s somewhat of a long shot, it definitely makes for interesting conversation material. What would you do with 640 million dollars? I don’t […]
Thursday, March 29, 2012 10:33 A.M. I’ve yet to go skiing this year (I know, it’s pretty bad), but I’m honestly going to try to make an effort to go up this weekend. We are seeing some incredible amounts of snowfall in the mountains for late March. In fact, as of March 25, we were […]
