    Something about the weather predictions for next Monday and Tuesday is bugging me -- First the temps for both days:

    Monday
    High Temp - 4F
    Low Temp - 1F

    Tuesday
    High Temp - 31F
    Low Temp - 20F

    So is the weather service saying that the temps will jump 16 degrees at 12:01 am on Tues? Any weather experts out there think this is a strange condition?

    The highs are the highest projected during that 24 hour period and the lows are the lowest prjected in the same 24 hour period. Looks like he was so used to putting the higher numeral with the high temp that he forgot that this is not always the case when the temps get around zero or below.

    One joke about knowing you're from Ohio is that you've used the heater and air conditioner in the same day. So it doesn't sound strange to me.

    Oh, and what Jim said.

    Its a strange sight when the highest temp for one day is much lower than the lowest temp for the following day. They must be expecting a very abrupt temp change.

    Over the past week, we've had...

    10+ Inches of Snow
    1/2 Inch of Ice
    Sunny Day - 30 degrees plus
    Thunderstorms
    Single degree temps
    And thick soupy fog

    Strange weather this year
