This is what the sun currently looks like. If you notice the sun is completely free of sunspots. If there were sunspots you would see some small dark circles forming on the surface of the sun. This is important for a few reasons…sunspots go through cycles where there can be several sunspots on the sun to where we are now with almost none. When there is a lot of sunspots there is also many solar flares or burst of radiational energy that comes off the sun. When they come in contact with the Earth they can disrupt tv and radio signals. But they can also affect climate in the fact that it can warm the Earth. When there is little sunspot activity it can actually be a precursor to the Earth cooling. The sun has been like this for about 6 months which is pretty long. In fact astronomers have been saying the longest time period they have recorded a prolonged sunspot drought was around the time of the Little Ice Age in Europe in the 15 and 1600s. So if this continues we might be talking about colder winters and cool summers. Something to keep an eye on.

Very happy to be in Nebraska tonight. I’ve been following this ice storm that is paralyzing a good part of the country from Texas to Washington D.C. Arkansas and Kentucky have been hit the hardest with ice amounts from 1.5 inches to as much as three in northern Arkansas where it’s being described as a blackout tonight. Nearly 200,000 people over six states will be without power tonight, and who knows when it will be fully returned. Trees were toppling at the rate of 100 per hour.
This story will be continued tomorrow to be sure as snow and ice will be reaching New York City and Boston by tomorrow morning. What a mess.

We have a couple of bands of light snow still hanging around central and southern Nebraska as of 7 am but for the most part we’ve received about all we are going to get from this round of snow. In fact we should even see some sunshine later today and have chilly highs in the mid teens. Here are some snowfall totals courtesy of the Hastings and North Platte national weather service observers.

Another round of light snow has developed. A long, thin band running from northwest Kansas into south central Nebraska. During the overnight light snow will be possible on either side of a Beaver City to Hastings to York line.
Accumulations will again be small. With snow fall rates only about a tenth of an inch per hour, total accumulations will range from one half inch to an inch and a half on the high end of the scale.
Long term, it appears we are finished with our nuisance snows for awhile. After a cold night tonight and highs on Tuesday only in the upper teens we’ll enjoy a moderation to our temperatures with low 40s by the weekend.

It’s been a while since we’ve had a white ground but many parts of Nebraska have it now. So far reports have about an inch to 3 inches for most of the state of Nebraska, with heavier amounts of snow in the central and northern parts of the state…about 3-6 inches.
Today the best chances of snow will be north of i-80. We could pick up an additional inch throughout the day. The snow should wrap up there by tonight…however another system is going to come out of the Rockies and the better chances of snow will be south of the interstate tonight and tomorrow morning. We could pick up another inch or two around the tri-cities. In northern Kansas and southeast Nebraska those areas could see 2-3 inches.
After tomorrow morning that’s pretty much it for snow for a while. It looks dry with slowly warming temperatures throughout the week.

For those kids out there that don’t feel like they’ve gotten enough sledding in, it looks like this week will be a great week for it. We’ve had some decent snow over the weekend. An inch or two in the tri cities. 3 to 6 north of highway 92. It looks like we could add on a tad more during the day Monday and into Monday Night. But after that, some milder air will finally return. We’re not talking 50’s or 60’s like last week. But 30’s and 40’s will have to do for now. I guess the groundhog will tell us how long we’ll have to wait for some warmer air. That’s only a week from tomorrow. Enjoy the last week of January.

It has been an amazing month of January with above average temperatures for 19 of the 22 days. Of those 22 days only 5 have been colder than 40 degrees. We have effectively kept winter at bay for nearly an entire month. Nearly.
It all changes later tonight with a cold front passing through after midnight with north winds picking up to 15 to 20 mph. For the rest of tomorrow the thermometer will peak in morning, drop anchor, then slowly fall in the afternoon.
There is also snow to talk about. There is nothing very distinguishable about this weekend’s weather. No single, big upper level storm to point to and focus on. We will be trying to time upper level features including a series of fast moving disturbances which makes the forecast precarious. Friday, snow will likely develope in western Nebraska and spread southeastward into the south central part of the state with the best snow chances south of Interstate 80 on Friday. It will take some time for the atmosphere to saturate preventing snowfall from reaching the surface so accumulations will be minimal.
For the weekend, snow bands will occur more northward, mainly along and north of I-80. Still tough to pinpoint with the models but preliminary estimates indicate 2-4″

As much as I like to be right in predicting the weather, at times I will get something wrong and it reminds me to work even harder to become a better forecaster. Yesterday we didn’t get as warm as I thought…in fact we were off by 7 degrees. That happens sometimes, warm air doesn’t come as quickly, the winds come out of a slightly different direction, clouds hang around longer than you think. Any one of these factors can throw off a forecast, so while 48 in late January is pretty warm…it’s nothing like the 55 I predicted.
What has been the pattern though is the sunshine and light winds lately….and even today and tomorrow we should have that. I’m thinking temps will make it into the 50s today since we are already at 35 as of 10 AM. But keep an eye to this weekend, as it may be pretty snowy especially in the northern parts of the state. I’ll have more on this probably Friday as we get closer to the weekend.

This IS truely an amazing country. Like most Americans, I shoulder some of the guilt for taking America for granted but as i watched the inauguration today various images fostered reflections long over due.
One of the most poignant images that struck me was watching the Obamas accompanying the Bushes down the steps of the Capitol to Marine 1, the helicopter waiting to wisk the former President away from Washington. It is the formal transition of power. Where else in the world would we see this occur? Two men, diametrically opposed in their political ideologies, one taking over leadership of the richest, most powerful country in the world from the other with a hand shake, followed by a wave as the other peacefully takes flight returning to his home. All of this occuring after morning coffee, a tradition started in the Roosevelt administration. No coups, no covert wranglings, no shots fired. It really is an amazing thing.
