Monsoon's Weather Update for Tuesday, 19 February 2008

A note for those of you who may not be familiar with my little forecasts here: I am an amateur meteorologist (fumbling and self-taught, but nonetheless supremely confident); as I continue to learn more and more about meteorology, I am slowly becoming a nearly mediocre forecaster. My forecast area is central and southern Berks and northern Lancaster Counties (where I and many of my peoples live and work), sometimes addressing weather in surrounding areas such as central Pennsylvania, the Lehigh Valley, and Greater Philadelphia. Enjoy!

Tuesday 2/19: Quite windy and much colder; clear throughout the day with increasing cloudiness late. High 37, low 22.

Wednesday 2/20: Cloudy and cold with light snow showers developing by late morning, becoming more frequent and steady throughout the afternoon and evening. Perhaps an inch of snow will accumulate before ending by 9 or 10pm. High 34, low 19.

Chance of cancellation Wednesday: 10%

Chance of early dismissal Wednesday: 20%

Thursday 2/21: Sunny to partly cloudy, windy and cold with snow mixed with sleet possible in the evening. High 31, low 22.

Friday 2/22: Mostly cloudy and cold; some snow is possible Friday, but track and amount are still unclear. Stay tuned for updates (I’m going to hold off on more detailed predictions or delay/cancellation percentages for now). High 34, low 25.

Saturday 2/23: Cloudy with snow showers or flurries possible; clearing in the afternoon. High 37, low 28.

Sunday 2/24: Partly cloudy and a bit milder. High 44, low 29.

Next week: Highs generally in the low to mid 40s; lows in the upper 20s and low 30s. No real chance for winter weather that I see.

Next weekend: Cloudy and rainy with highs in the upper 40s.

Beyond: Colder the following week with perhaps our last good chance for accumulating snow around March 5th or 6th.

Have a great week!

Monsoon
