You Can Still Enjoy The Snow In All This Mild Weather.. Massage To Winter! HURRY AND BRING THE COLD SNOWY WEATHER TO LAFAYETTE, INDIANA! Please.....

Where is the COLD? That is what I have been going CRAZY to figure out!!! I know a lot of you have really been enjoying this mild weather however I NEED COLD WEATHER lol. This is Indiana, not Texas. :) We are not even at an average temperature! We are way above where we should be for this time of year. The average temperature for November 10th is around 54 degrees. With the average low around 36 degrees. Where are we expected to be today? A good seven degrees above average! Yes, we are looking for highs once again today in the low 60s around 61 degrees. Lows tonight will be a good 10 or 11 degrees above average! This is just crazy don't ya think? But nature is like a rubber band when it comes to weather. The more we see these temperatures pulled outta whack! The harder they will SNAP back into place! The question is "When?" And that is what I'M keeping my eye out for! Right now it is looking like we will go through this week with above average temperatures in the low to middle 60s then as we head into the late weekend into next week we will see the 50s try and return. Then also as we get closer to Thanksgiving we will see temperatures start to fall. Once we see the Jet stream start to drop more south then we will really see the cold weather kick into high gear.


And for all the cold weather fans I wanted to point out that I have been talking with a few weather experts trying to tweak our winter outlook and they seem to agree with the bitter cold start to winter at this time. We expect to see the jet stream try and dip south as we get closer to December which means cold cold weather will over take the area. Could we finally see a white Christmas this year? We will keep HOPE! :)



Until the cold weather gets it's butt in gear lol, I have another way for you all to keep cool and keep the holiday spirit.
That's right Jim Carrey's, A Christmas Carol. As you know I went and seen this over the weekend and I have to say it was good. Even better in 3D that's for sure. I had not been to the movies in some time so seeing the difference in the 3D from then to now is amazing. It really looked like you were in the screen. The falling snow looked like it was falling in your lap. I was amazed. Yes, there are some scenes that may scare little kids however Jim Carrey, did a great job. This was just what I needed with all this mild weather. It took my mind off of the above average temperatures and made me feel like I was in a Winter Wonderland...
Now we move onto something that many people have been talking about this week. Yes, we are talking about IDA. This Tropical Storm IDA is expected to make landfall early early this morning sometime after 1:00am. (Tuesday / Today)
Tropical Storm IDA, has been packing sustained winds of 70 mph. IDA, is moving north at around 17mph. Right now the national weather service has issued a Tropical Storm Wind Warning for pretty much the whole golf coast. Here is just a little something from the National Weather Service below.

.SITUATION OVERVIEW...
EVEN THOUGH IDA IS WEAKENING AND BEGINNING THE PROCESS OF BECOMING
NON TROPICAL...THERE WERE STILL BE SOME SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS TO THE
REGION. THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE TO BOATERS DUE TO DANGEROUS WINDS
AND SEAS. SIGNIFICANT BEACH EROSION AND POSSIBLE FLOODING OF LOW
LYING AREAS AND ROADS IS IS LIKELY ALONG PORTIONS OF THE FLORIDA
PANHANDLE AND BIG BEND. SOME INLAND FLOODING IS POSSIBLE TONIGHT
AND TUESDAY WHERE THE HEAVY RAIN BANDS SET UP. WIND DAMAGE IS
EXPECTED TO BE PRIMARILY LIMITED TO NEAR THE COAST AND ISOLATED.

This just goes to show you that even though it is a Tropical storm it is still a dangerous thing and it needs to be watched closely!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Quick cast.............................

Today we will look for partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies over the WLFI viewing area. Some models are showing some really light sprinkles moving through the area as a weak cold front pushes through. At this time I cannot rule out some light scattered sprinkles. Good news is it will not be a wash out in the least bit. Rainfall looks less then a tenth inch. Highs today will be in the low 60s with lows tonight in the upper 40s. Winds will be between 10 and 20 mph. Chance of rain 15% to 25%.

Wednesday / Veterans Day we will see nothing but clear sunny skies over take our area. Highs will again be above average in the low 60s with lows also above average in the upper 30s. Winds will be between 20 and 25 mph possible. Next chance at rain won't be until closer to next weekend...

I will check back soon....................
