No winner this week. Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. Define “Sunset.” Here is the correct answer. Sunset: The phenomenon of the sun’s daily disappearance below the western horizon as a result of the earth’s rotation. The word is often used to refer to the time at which the last part of the sun disappears below the horizon in the evening at a given location. I’ll have a new weekly weather quiz question for you starting 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.

An upper level high pressure ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) will be clearing us out but not until a warm front (shown in red) spreads more moisture and the next warm front behind it passes. Then we’ll start to clear out.
