  • NASA's Astronomy Picture Of The Day today features an amazing weather pattern, lake-effect snow. The pic of the day will change soon, so here's the picture itself.

    The pic is of the North American Great Lakes. Nothing like knowing that the snow that's falling on you used to be in a lake to the north.

  • I'm seeing the bottom of this scene right this minute. I'll see it almost every day from now until the end of March. It's what we get for being 20 degrees cooler than Milwaukee on the hottest summer days and 20 degrees warmer on the coldest winter days. The amazing thing though, is how it fluctuates through our 'microclimes.' Right here on the coast we'll get 15 inches overnight. ten miles further inland they'll get 5. 20 more miles, a light dusting.

  • that is a favorite bookmark of mine...
