We have a winner! Congratulations to Karl Bonner who was  the first person to post the correct answer.

________________

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is “fulgerite?” Here is Karl’s correct answer. “Fulgerite is a form of glass created when hot lightning (1800 degrees C or hotter) hits sand; the grains of quartz melt together and cool into a tube-shaped piece of fulgerite.” A record-large piece of fulgerite was found some years ago in Michigan that measured 15 feet in length and had a white-green-gray color. All Karl has to do is mail m at the address listed in my contacts section an we can discuss how h will us his week of personalized forecasts. I’ll have another weekly weather question for you starting next Monday. Please remember to post your answer as a comment by clicking on “no comments/comments” in the upper right hand portion of this page under the caption, then add your comment. The first person to post the correct answer will win a week of free personalized  weather forecasts tailored to your needs. The answer has to be a comment to win. An email answer will not count. Good luck.

A high pressure ridge (“Arch” shape) moved away from the Pacific Northwest and a trough of low pressure (“U” shape) slid in behind it sending some serious moisture our way. A cold front pushed through Oregon bringing back our chances of getting wet. The upper level low will move across the Pacific Northwest allowing a high pressure ridge to clear us out and warm us up just in time for the long holiday weekend.
