3.9.24 Slight chance of evening showers, then showers late tonight.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is a “Pseudo-Cold Front?”  Here is the correct answer.  A Pseudo-Cold Front is a boundary between a supercell’s inflow region and the rear-flank downdraft (or RFD). It extends outward from the mesocyclone center, usually toward the south or southwest (but occasionally bows outward to the east or southeast in the case of an occluded mesocyclone), and is characterized by advancing of the downdraft air toward the inflow region. It is a particular form of gust front.

__________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) is keeping the Pacific Northwest dry.  The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system approaching the coast today then moving in by Sunday. The graphics for days 3-7    Tuesday through Saturday show increasing frontal activity through the period.
NOTE: Daylight Saving Time officially begins at 2 AM this Sunday March 10th. Don’t forget to “SPRING AHEAD” at bedtime tonight by setting your clocks ahead by one hour. The authorities recommend that everyone check home Smoke Detectors, CO Detectors, and RADON Detectors to make sure they are in working order. Depending on the type you have and how old they are you can replace bad batteries or replace the whole Detector.

Here is my new weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is a “Pseudo-Cold Front?”

__________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) is keeping the Pacific Northwest dry.  The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system aspproaching the coast Saturday. The graphics for days 3-7    Monday through Friday show increasing frontal activity through the period.
NOTE: Daylight Saving Time officially begins at 2 AM this Sunday March 10th. Don’t forget to “SPRING AHEAD” at bedtime Saturday night by setting your clocks ahead by one hour. The authorities recommend that everyone check home Smoke Detectors, CO Detectors, and RADON Detectors to make sure they are in working order. Depending on the type you have and how old they are you can replace bad batteries or replace the whole Detector.

NOTE: Daylight Saving Time officially begins at 2 AM this Sunday March 10th. Don’t forget to “SPRING AHEAD” at bedtime Saturday night by setting your clocks ahead by one hour.

Here is my new weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is a “Pseudo-Cold Front?”

__________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) is keeping most of the Pacific Northwest dry.  The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system moving eastward through Northern California. The graphics for days 3-7    Saturday through Wednesday show increasing frontal activity through the period.
NOTE: Daylight Saving Time officially begins at 2 AM this Sunday March 10th. Don’t forget to “SPRING AHEAD” at bedtime Saturday night by setting your clocks ahead by one hour. The authorities recommend that everyone check home Smoke Detectors, CO Detectors, and RADON Detectors to make sure they are in working order. Depending on the type you have and how old they are you can replace bad batteries or replace the whole Detector.
