Outstanding

Jason Samenow @ 8:32 AM

Today marks the first mostly sunny day in two weeks. In addition to the beautiful sunshine, we'll have much above average temperatures -- with highs in the upper 70s. You will notice a bit of a breeze, as northwesterly winds of about 15mph kick in this afternoon.

Tomorrow will remain sunny but be about 8-10 degrees cooler than today as the departing Northeast storm pulls down some Canadian air.



If you look at the 7-day forecast above, looks like a fine stretch of weather over the next week.

Tropical Update

A disturbance near Jamaica continues to show signs of development and could become a tropical depression at any time. The system has the potential to become a hurricane and will be named Wilma assuming it develops into a tropical storm.

Wearing the Weather?

Glarkware has developed a "Weather Forecast Button Set" in their apparel line. Yes, you are supposed to wear these buttons:
Glarkware's Weather Forecast Button Set allows you to turn your outfit into a moving billboard for the day's weather forecast -- and if your fashion-based broadcast cause passersby to strike up conversation and you to make friends...you're welcome.
Maybe a set of these should be a prize for our forecast contest? Thanks to CapitalWeather.com contributor Andrew Freedman for the link.
