"All good things..."

Hopefully you enjoyed today's sunny start as the day looks to wrap up in a very different fashion. This morning, although chilly at -3 degrees, saw yet another sunny start...something we've seen a lot of lately. The Thanksgiving long weekend was incredible weather wise and this morning's sunshine was a great way to cap off a very nice stretch of weather. Unfortunately all good things must come to an end. As you can see from the latest NAM run (above), that area of high pressure responsible for the recent sunshine is making an exit today. Cloud cover continues to develop ahead of that front even as I write this blog. This front will likely result in overcast conditions and a few showers this evening. Ironically, the cloud cover this "cold" front is responsible for will at least give us a much more mild overnight low. A nice layer of cloud cover is like throwing a thick blanket on the bed as it literally traps in the heat gained during the day. Tonight's low of +6 degrees is at least one silver lining to the wet weather ahead over the next few days.
