19/11/2008 "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)"
Ann Peebles' hit, I Can't Stand the Rain, climbed the Billboard pop chart to #38 in 1973. The wistful song, written by Peebles, Don Bryant and Bernard Miller, has been covered by artists such as Tina Turner and Seal.

18/11/2008 Q: How often does it snow more than an inch in Chicago?
A: The best resource for snow is the National Climatic Data Center’s Snow Climatology site. You can get a variety of historical snowfall information in Chicago by clicking through that site. I found the average number of days at Chicago Midway with a daily snowfall amount greater than 1 inch on this page. For example, February averages 2 days with at least 1 inch of snow or more each year. -- Doyle Rice This question...

Frosty start in the Southeast -- It was a chilly night across much of the East, with freeze warnings remaining across the Southeast through mid-morning. After a full day of cold air advection from the northwest, tonight will be even colder as high pressure settles across the Southeast. The coldest temperatures since late last winter will be likely for the region. Freezing warnings, with even some hard freeze warnings, will be in effect for parts...



17/11/2008 Q: Why is Houston so humid?
A: Since humidity is essentially a measure of how much water vapor is in the air (actually, relative humidity is a percentage measure of the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water vapor which would saturate the air at a given temperature and pressure), it is the proximity of Houston to water (namely the Gulf of Mexico) which makes for such a humid climate. Here is a link to...

Many locations will receive at least 6 inches of snowfall, with isolated spots getting a foot or more through tonight....



16/11/2008 Q: How can there be tornadoes in November?
Q: Tornadoes can actually occur any time of the year, given the right conditions (the right conditions being an ample supply of warm, moist air to generate thunderstorms and a favorable weather pattern to have sufficient wind shear to produce rotation within the thunderstorm). These conditions are most often met in the late spring and early summer, which is why that period is typically thought of as “tornado season.” The main supplier of warm, moist...

Red flag fire warnings...



15/11/2008 Q: When can North Georgia's first snow be expected?

However, I was able to skim through this climate narrative from the National Weather Service office in Peachtree City to come up with some general snow climatology: Northeast mountains -- Snow falls an average of 5 days each year, producing average seasonal total snowfall of...
