Another storm front will move through the Lower Mississippi Valley and
Ohio Valley at the start of the week. While this front will not be intense
enough to produce the amount of severe weather that occurred last week,
the Storm Prediction Center forecasts a slight chance of severe weather from
eastern Texas through southern Arkansas. Severe thunderstorms along with
tornadoes are possible in this area.
Meanwhile, a storm will move out of the Upper Midwest and into Canada. This
storm brought very strong winds to the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest
on Saturday and will continue to do so much of Sunday.

Rain will spread through the Upper Mississippi Valley and Ohio Valley as well,
producing possible areas of heavy precipitation.
The West will remain dry as a high pressure system dominates, while
the strong winds that blew through the area Saturday will weaken.
Temperatures in the Northeast will rise into the 70s, while the Southeast
will see readings in the 80s and 90s. The Northern Plains will rise into the 40s
and 50s, while the Southern Plains will see temperatures in the 80s and 90s
and the Northeast, into the 60s.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states ranged Saturady from a morning
low of 5 degrees at Monarch Pass, Colo., to a high of 95 degrees at Falfurrias,
Texas.

I think it will be the same as today. But it might be slightly
warmer. It seems like it will rain for the whole week.

Discussion
There is a 300 mb trough positioned over the Central
Plains. We also have a 300 mb jet core set up just to our north
and west. This will aid in keeping the majority of disturbances
out of our area for the time being. The worst of which will be a
few afternoon showers or thundershowers Today and Tuesday.
The 300 mb trough will finally swing through Wednesday.
A shortwave disturbance riding along it will give us some
clouds and showers on Wednesday.
High pressure over the Ohio River Valley in conjunction
with the passing storm system will set up a fairly tight
pressure gradient over Connecticut on Thursday. This will keep
conditions breezy. Along with the gusty winds will be a few fair
weather cumulus clouds.
A weak shortwave will try to make its way into Connecticut
from the north and west on Friday. However, it will have to
deal with low dew points to make it here. It appears that the
bulk of the moisture associated with it will dry out before
reaching Connecticut, although a chance shower is not out of
the question on Friday.

~*~*~*~

Observations:
• Very humid
• Slight Drizzle

~*~*~*~

My Prediction:
I think that it will rain because on this map it looks like the rain
will start to move our way. Since today was not so warm I think it
will be a little cooler.

More wet weather is anticipated across the Eastern Valleys on Tuesday, due
to a front stretching from the Northeast to the Gulf of Mexico.
A low pressure system in eastern Canada pushes a trough of low pressure
over the Great Lakes and New England. Southward flow around the back side of this
system will allow for a cold front to develop to the south. This system will slowly
move eastward, over the Mississippi River Valley, and reach the East Coast by
evening. The system will produce more scattered showers and thunderstorms, as
ample moisture from the Gulf and Atlantic Ocean feed energy into it. If storms turn
severe, they will most likely develop across New England, the Ohio River Valley and
Mid-Atlantic states. Expect rainfall totals to range from 1 to 2 inches, with up to 3
inches likely in areas of thunderstorm development.
Behind this system, a ridge of high pressure builds over the Plains and Central
U.S. This creates another sunny day across the Plains, which allows for warmer
temperatures. Highs will reach into the 50s and 60s across the North, while the
South will remain in the mid-60s, a few degrees below normal for this time of year.
 Farther West, a low pressure system and associated cold front continue
moving over the Pacific Northwest and into the Northern Rockies. This will push rain
and high elevation snow showers into the Northern Rockies, while a few light rain
showers will linger over Oregon and Washington.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Monday ranged from a morning low of 3
degrees at Leadville, Colo., to a high of 93 degrees at Tampa Vandenberg, Fla.

~*~*~*~

Observation:
• Was a little chilly out
• Drizzled a little

~*~*~*~

My Prediction:

I think that tomorrow will be a warmer day. It seems like it

will be nice weather, with no rain. Maybe at night there will be
a little rain but the ground will dry till we go to school.

A cold front will move up the East Coast by Wednesday morning and
bring light to moderate rain across the eastern states.
Steady rain in the Northeast will increase flood threat for Upstate New York
and New England through Thursday. Moreover, some wet snow is possible for
the higher elevations Wednesday night into Thursday over northern New
England. Lingering rain and showers are likely over the eastern Ohio Valley
and central Appalachians Wednesday morning. The front is expected to move
off the mid-Atlantic Coast by midday, while the southern portion of the front
will become nearly stationary across central Florida. As a result, rain should
be diminishing over the Mid-Atlantic Coast Wednesday morning, but showers
and thunderstorms will continue over the Florida Peninsula, with possible
severe weather Wednesday afternoon.
In the mid-section of the nation, a cold front will advance eastward into
the northern and central Plains, producing light to moderate rain with high
elevation snow Wednesday morning over the high Plains. Precipitation will
increase in coverage and intensity Wednesday evening and Thursday
morning as the front moves through the Upper Midwest.
Out West, high pressure will build across the West on Wednesday,
bringing fair skies along with mild to warm temperatures. This will be short-
lived as a Pacific system arrives early Thursday.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Tuesday ranged from a morning
low of 10 degrees at Leadville, Colo., to a high of 93 degrees at Carlsbad,
Calif.

~*~*~*~

Observation:
• A little warmer
• Got more sun today
• The sky was full of big clouds

~*~*~*~

My Prediction:

I think that tomorrow will be a warm day without rain. I

think it will be like this for about 2 days. The weather might be
in the higher 60s.

The strong cold front that brought active weather to the Northeast on
Wednesday will move offshore into the Atlantic Ocean on Thursday as its
parent low pressure system stalls in Maine.
Wrap around winds associated with this low will usher moisture onshore,
creating scattered showers from Vermont through Maine and chances of
precipitation in eastern Massachusetts. Temperatures near the freezing mark
will allow for some wet snow development in the higher elevations. While
rainfall totals in this area are expected to remain low, expect some rivers to
remain flooded due to previous soaking rains.
Behind this system, another low pressure system in the Central Plains
will lift northeastward into the Upper Mississippi Valley on Thursday. Periods
of light to moderate scattered showers are expected to develop from parts of
central and southern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin through parts of
northern Missouri during the day.
Finally, the ridge of high pressure over the West will start to give way to
a trough of low pressure moving into the Pacific Northwest. A cold front will
approach the Pacific Northwest coast Thursday, bringing small chances of
rain to primarily the coast of northern Washington. Expect chances of rain to
increase in the region as we enter the weekend and this trough pushes
ashore. To the south, warming along the California coast will wind down
Thursday as winds become onshore again. Inland areas of the state see
continued warming.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Wednesday ranged from a
morning low of 14 degrees at Pinedale, Wyo., to a high of 97 degrees at Palm
Springs, Calif.
