Weather rollercoaster
April 14, 2008
Our forecast:
Today: Clouds increase with a 15% drizzle chance, high 63, 65 at the beach. A dip in the Jetstream will bring unusually cold weather this way. A trough just ahead of the chilly air could produce some sprinkles.
Tuesday: A low east of our coast and strong high pressure to the north will keep us chilly again and breezy. We could see a record low and a minimal high. Low 40(record 39), high 63 (record 63). Wednesday we start in the upper 30s again with a high near 70.
Thursday we start to warm up with highs in the mid 70s and even warmer Friday and Saturday.
The unusual and unpredictable weather this month finds us sunning on the beach one day and searching for a jacket the next. I never know when to put the plants out or bring them in since it has been changing day-to-day!
