Temperatures Are Still Running Above Average. But Green Snow Is In The Forecast! Where? When? And What The Heck Is "Green Snow?"

Well, I have gone through the latest temperature models and some agree while others are showing temperatures sky high! lol. Right now I'm looking for slightly above average temperatures through out this week into next week. But will we see 90s? Well, not all this week! Right now I believe from today through Friday we will look for highs in the low to middle 80s. However heading into the weekend I see temperatures going back up into the upper 80s! And the MOS models showing possible 91* degrees back in the forecast come this Friday into Saturday! However the MOS models have been running a few degrees higher then what the real time temperature has been reaching. So here is a quick look at what some models are expecting our weekly temperatures to be below.

WED, HIGH 85°

THU, HIGH 86°

FRI, HIGH 88°

SAT, HIGH 86°
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now on both Friday and Saturday the MOS models are calling for highs in the upper 80s to low 90s possible. However like I said above the MOS models have been running a few degrees above what the real temperature has been reaching. So with that being said I have gone with another model which is calling for the highs posted above. I think they will be much closer to the real time temperature as of the latest model data. So yes, currently we are cooler then we were this time last week however not as cool as we would like to be! So in that case I found something that I feel may help cool you all off if only for a moment! ;)

It's called "Green Snow". And it's in tonight's forecast in Antarctica!! Take a look below.

GREEN SNOW: Tonight's weather forecast in Antarctica calls for a 35% chance of green snow. Yes, green. It turns that color during geomagnetic storms, as shown in this August 1st photo from Nick Roden of Australia's Davis Station on the Antarctic coast:



"We've had some fantastic aurora displays lately--bright enough to reflect from the snow," says Roden. In addition to the green auroras, there is also a green laser lancing up from the research station in the background. "That's our LIDAR, which we use to study the upper atmosphere."

A new episode of green may be in the offing. A coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to deliver a glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field on Aug. 17th or 18th, and NOAA forecasters estimate a 35% chance of polar geomagnetic activity when the cloud arrives.

Temperature Cast Developing..........

Hey bloggers be sure to stick around for the latest temperature cast coming your way in just a few! How long will the 90s stay away? I'll let you know!

Stay tuned.

Looking Good Weather - wise.

I checked out a little more data and yes these storms are in fact weakening as they continue to move closer to the Indiana state line. The Echo tops that were reaching 500ft have dropped to 450ft and falling. This is a good sign!

Still we will look for light to moderate rainfall through the overnight hours. A rumble or two cannot be ruled out, but "Nothing" strong / severe. Maybe a few breezy winds but nothing to gusty to worry about. Over all weather - wise things look good!
