WARM AGAIN with CHANGES AHEAD
Another warm day on tap for us in Middle Tennessee. We'll see 72° here in Cookeville while locations to our west near Nashville will hit 75°-77°. Thunderstorms move in after midnight here in the Upper Cumberland. We'll stay in the rain producing pattern all the way through Saturday. Possible activation of spotters for Friday night and Saturday.
WEATHER RADIOS
Speaking of severe weather, now is a GREAT time to get a weather radio. Come to Kroger today, Tuesday, in Cookeville and purchase one for 29.95 and we'll program it for you. Thanks to News Channel 5 for doing this in conjuction with Kroger. Charlie Neese, News Channel 5 meterologist, will be on hand as well.
MEASURING THE WRONG WAY
How Not To Measure Temperature, Part 85 has just been released by our friend, Anthony Watts, on his website Watts Up With That! This particular site is down in Pascagoula, MS where Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005. Apparently, when the operation was rebuilt, the folks in charge took little consideration on how/where to site the weather equipment.
WILD WEATHER MONDAY
From the Accu-Weather.com blog comes this great piece of information. According to Jesse Ferrell, Cherry County, Nebraska had a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, Tornado Warning, and Blizzard Warning yesterday at 2:15 pm. WOW! Cherry County is an unusally large county though.
Speaking of yesterday, 160 severe weather reports across the country.

Congrats to your parents. My Dad passed away two months from their 50th. In my mind they made it 50 years. We are both blessed to have that inheritance.
Thanks Mike...I agree your parents had 50+ years with each other! And yes, we are blessed to have those examples...no doubt about it!
