Sat. May31, 2008, long, lingering contrails being produced all day, lite west wind pushing cloud to our horizon leaving lite milky haze overhead. Google and NASA stats agree. Thank g-d for cloud, eh.

<BR /><DIV>
But on days like today, a DC-9 flying overhead can give you a pretty good forecast. Just watch the jet contrails!</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>
We're expecting clear, blue skies today. Chances are the contrails will fade very quickly. That means the upper atmosphere is pretty dry and there aren't any storm systems trying to move our way.</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>
But by tomorrow afternoon, those contrails should start to stick around longer and even thicken up a bit. That means some humid air is pushing in to the region and we can expect some storms this weekend. We'll see how our contrail forecasting holds up.</DIV>

With those blue skies today, expect high temperatures in the lower 70s.</DIV>

Expect clear skies tonight with low temperatures in the low-to-mid 50s.</DIV>
Warmer weather returns tomorrow.
