As expected arctic air will stay entrenched across the region through the weekend with lows for Saturday and Sunday morning in the upper teens to lower 20s. Wind chills will again be in the 8-14 degree range Saturday morning but winds will be less of an issue for Saturday night into Sunday morning. Sunny skies will make it feel a little better this weekend with highs in the upper 30s Saturday and mid-40s Sunday. One more hard freeze is in the offing for Monday morning then a gradual moderating trend is expected through the middle part of next week. It looks to get on the wet and stormy side later next week as the long range models have been consistent in indicating a whopper of a storm in the Gulf for the 15th. So next week we will say goodbye to the arctic air and say hello again to an active weather pattern.

Rob, I have noticed you are pretty consistent answering on this blog. I have a question and maybe others have the same question. Is this weather due to global warming? Is the warming the name conducive ? I would think warming means things would be warmer than the norm. Thanks.

I prefer global “climate change”! Not going to get into here. but like everything else, it’s how you spin it. There is and always has been global climate change…and there’s decent evidence of warming…but whether it’s a runaway problem is still up for debate…there are many more pressing problems such as clean water, disease, food shortages, population explosion etc that our globe will have to face well before any climate change impacts us directly. I just worry about severe weather events, hurricanes etc as they will continue to be our pressing problems (global climate change or not) in our lifetime.
