"Red Sky at night, Sailors delight. Red Sky in the morning, Sailors take warning."

This saying has to do with CIRRUS clouds.

How early do you wake up ? LOL.

I want a 24/7 camera on the weather center at FOX 29 so I can see them prepare the weather....

and what in Red Skies name is David Aldrich doing up at 1:57 in the morning and then appearing on Good Day?

Temperatures from March to May were the 36th coolest on record for the contiguous United States, according to NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center. May alone was the 34th coolest on record

The March-May temperatures were cooler than average from the Northwest and extending throughout the central Plains and upper Mississippi Valley. In all, 19 states had a cooler-than-average spring.
Twenty-five states were cooler than average for May. Pennsylvania was much cooler than average and ranked eighth coolest.
The unusually cool temperatures kept the nation’s overall temperature-related residential energy demand for May above average. Based on NOAA’s Residential Energy Demand Temperature Index, contiguous U.S. temperature-related energy demand was approximately 3.5 percent above average in May, but near average for the spring season.

This year may set records for tornadoes and tornado-related deaths. “We’re only halfway through the tornado season and we have already seen 111 tornado-related deaths, making this the deadliest tornado season since 1998,” said Greg Carbin, a meteorologist at NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla.

TO REACH THE MID 90S DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY. THESE TEMPERATURES...COUPLED WITH INCREASING HUMIDITY...
WILL ALLOW HEAT INDEX VALUES TO TOP OUT AROUND 100 DEGREES DURING
THE HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY, ESPECIALLY IN THE HIGHLY URBANIZED
AREAS. LOW TEMPERATURES AT NIGHT WILL NOT DROP BELOW THE LOWER TO
MID 70S.

ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY, TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN
THE MID 90S WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES AROUND 100 DEGREES. HOWEVER,
SINCE MONDAY AND TUESDAY ARE A FEW DAYS AWAY AND CONDITIONS CAN
CHANGE...THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH HAS BEEN CONTINUED FOR SUNDAY
NIGHT AND MONDAY, AND EXTENDED THROUGH TUESDAY. IF CONDITIONS
DEVELOP AS EXPECTED, THEN AN EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING WOULD BE
NEEDED ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS WELL. A WEAK COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO SLIP THROUGH THE AREA LATE TUESDAY OR BY WEDNESDAY,
CAUSING A SLIGHT DROP IN TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY FOR WEDNESDAY.

THIS IS THE FIRST EXTENDED PERIOD OF HOT AND HUMID WEATHER THIS
SEASON. AS A RESULT...AREA RESIDENTS ARE NOT ACCLIMATIZED TO THE
EARLY SEASON HEAT. THE FOLLOWING IS A REVIEW OF SOME HEAT RELATED
SAFETY TIPS. DRINK PLENTY OF NON-ALCOHOLIC FLUIDS...WEAR LIGHT
COLORED AND LOOSE FITTING CLOTHING...STAY OUT OF THE SUNSHINE AND
SPEND AS MUCH TIME AS POSSIBLE IN AIR CONDITIONED FACILITIES.
ALSO...BE SURE TO CHECK ON ELDERLY RELATIVES AND NEIGHBORS. PLEASE
LEAVE PLENTY OF WATER AND SHADE FOR PETS AND LIVESTOCK.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA
OUTLETS FOR THE LATEST WEATHER INFORMATION.

A LARGE AND STRONG BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL ESTABLISH
ITSELF OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES SATURDAY...AND CONTINUE INTO
NEXT WEEK. AS THIS OCCURS...AN INCREASINGLY HOT AND HUMID AIR
MASS WILL BUILD ACROSS OUR REGION. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED
TO REACH THE LOWER AND MID 90S DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS
SATURDAY. THESE TEMPERATURES...COUPLED WITH INCREASING
HUMIDITY...WILL ALLOW HEAT INDEX VALUES TO TOP OUT AROUND 100
DEGREES DURING THE HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY.

I think Doug owns this blog. LOL.

I like that website...I think I will actually use it frequently.

And I agree with Doug's comment...you should put a camera in the FOX 29 Weather Center. LOL.

And what are you doing up at 1:57 AM and then being on Good Day 3 hours later ?

Interesting site. A lot going on. Bet It's fun keeping that site up.

Bandwidth.

Doug is getting fired up for carbon belch day.
