2006 Ends On A Warm Note.

Average highs this time of year are only in the upper 40s, and today we're looking at topping out in the lower 60s. If I look back on the weather of 2006 here at home I'm glad to say there were not any major problems this year. Sure we had our usual bouts of thunderstorms from time to time, but overall we were fortunate weather-wise this year. And believe it or not I'd say our top weather story was awesome Fall Foliage we had this year, and the conditions to enjoy it all. Just yesterday I was speaking to someone from the Atlanta area who spent some time in New England this past Autumn. She said the color was much more spectacular here this year, and lasted much longer.
We'll wrap up the old year with warmer than normal temperatures and wet weather. No big drops in temperatures for the New Year though. In fact if you're looking for Winter fun and games nothing is imminent.......but stay tuned around the 11th of January. The models have been hinting (in a big way) that something may stir Snowbird out of his hibernation. That's way out there, but fun to keep an eye on.
