Is It Winter?

As I sit here tonight the temperature is 24 degrees and fog is settling in again. Tomorrow there will be light snow falling in the afternoon and evening, and it will probably stack up to an inch or a little more, especially in the higher parts of the area. Today's high temperature was only 35 degrees, and tomorrow will be about the same so you might say that winter is getting an early foothold. Looking a little farther ahead it appears as if any snow that does accumulate won't hang around all that long. After a chilly, and mainly dry weekend milder and wetter weather will be here for early next week and temperatures will climb back into the 40s. That's not warm, but it is an improvement over what is out there right now.

It is almost Friday, and as usual the day will start off with a trip to the tennis court, indoor of course, for my usual Friday morning humiliation. After that I will be taking my meteorology class out to the National Weather Service office for a tour of the facility. With the weather that is expected tomorrow it should be an interesting excursion. The class had a test today, and tomorrow the second research paper of the quarter is due, so I will have lots of papers to grade over the weekend. Throw in 3 basketball games to officiate on Saturday and all of my regular church duties and it will be another busy weekend...just the way I like it!
