Technical Discussion

Model runs seemed to agree that we'll be clear until Wed/Thurs. We're a bit worried about the presence of a weak warm front that might peak through on Wednesday night and keep nighttime temperatures warm. Other than that, we think most of the rain will keep off until Thursday afternoon where a few storms might fire ahead of a weak disturbance. We decided to focus our precip forecast on Thursday. Friday's temps appear that they will be warmer than model forecasts if we have a partly cloudy sky. Humidity will return on Fri/Sat and more rain is expected Saturday as the front begins to move closer.

[A more detailed discussion will come next week. This is Monday Night's first meeting; we spent most of our time teaching the basics of forecasting.]
