Thanks to Barry for providing the graphic for the comet Neowise in yesterday’s post. It will be visible through July 23rd before you need binoculars or a telescope. After that, it won’t be visible again for 6800 years. I hope you enjoy our weather lady Abby in the Weather Center graphic. If she can wear […]
The land has turned soggy and cooler air is making its appearance known to all. I actually pulled out my Carthartt coat last evening when I went outside to play with the dogs and walk the cat – yup, walk the cat – he knows when 7pm comes around and makes sure I have his […]

One person was injured and three buildings were heavily damaged. September 23 2006: Small tornadoes […]
Can’t get much better than this weather-wise. We had 79° for our high yesterday with relatively dry air – our low temp this morning is 57°. Once again most of the U.S. is free from warnings and advisories with the exception of Maine and most of New England where there are frost and freeze advisories […]
