The Monday morning video is on the server:

By the way... Bill Murray has a litte typo in his article below this one... the new NCEP computers will take them from 450 billion calculations per second to 1.3 trillion calculations per second. He just missed the "t" in trillion! That blows my little pea picking mind.

Coming attactions:

*After a few lingering showers this morning, there is a good chance the sun returns later today as temperatures soar into the 60s. If the sun comes out early enough we might even reach the 70s.

*We DO go into the 70s tomorrow. I have 71 in the forecast package, but I think J.B. will be pushing that number into the mid 70s on his afternoon update later today. Have to wonder if some records might be in danger. I fully expect some major spring fever cases tomorrow. Should be the warmest day so far in 2005.

*A little rain arrives on Wednesday with the next cold front, and that will bring us back to reality for the rest of the week. We will struggle to reach 50 degrees on Thursday and Friday, and we should drop into the 20s Friday morning. Your typical temperature roller coaster in late February.

*The weekend ahead looks wet. Trying to tell you exactly when it will rain and how much rain will fall is hard to do in this kind of pattern. We mention periods of rain both Saturday and Sunday, and maybe some thunderstorms on Sunday.

*No cold air really showing up for the latter half of February at this point. But, winter is far from over.
