Meteorological winter cometh…

After a tranquil and mild November with little precipitation, things are about to change.  Colder air will work in for Thanksgiving, with non-accumulating snow flurries or light snow showers possible for the end of the week.

Conditions will improve a bit over the weekend, but this is ahead of a major weather system forming for the first week of December.  While it is too early to be too specific, be aware that much colder air will again invade next week and snow may develop.  It is not clear if this snow would target Cincinnati or other areas.  In fact, St. Louis and Memphis are even possible targets.

For now, just be aware that next week is the first week of December and the first week of meteorological winter and it will look and feel like it.

Wet Fridays, nice weekends

After comments last week by Ron Wilson and Brian Thomas about wet Fridays this month, I went back and looked and found the following rain totals for October at the 7 AM CoCoRaHS observation at my Cheviot 0.9 SSE location:

 

Sunday: T

Monday:  0

Tuesday:  0

Wednesday:  0.82

Thursday:  0.25

Friday:  2.98

Saturday:  0.83

 

They were right!  Please note that the rain totals ended at 7 AM, so we have actually had mostly beautiful weather for the weekends.  Have a nice one!

If you are anywhere near Faith Fellowship Church at 6734 Bridgetown Road on Saturday, don’t forget the Fall Family Festival from 10 AM to 2 PM.
