Weather is here (perhaps)
Nov. 29th, 2008 07:24 pmOf course it has been sunny and clear pretty much the whole week. Tomorrow, though, we invited some friends to dinner, so the forecast calls for a 90% chance of snow with two to four inches of accumulation. Given the poor reliability of NWS forecasts over the past few years, I almost wouldn't worry about it. We could actually get nothing, or a foot. There's no way of telling. Odds are, since they predicted it, we'll get nothing.
But there's Murphy's law too, which says that since snow is undesirable on Sunday, we'll be sure to get it, and more than we want. Add to that the fact that much of the food is already prepared, and we cleaned house more thoroughly today than we have in months. That calls for a blizzard, just to interfere with our plans. ;p
At the moment it's heavy clouds, but nothing falling. There's a grand conjunction tomorrow right after sunset, SSW, lowish in the sky. The crescent moon will pass right between Venus and Jupiter, both of which are extremely bright. It should be spectacular, but of course won't be visible here. Those of you who have clear skies at sunset tomorrow should have a look, though.
