Happy Birthday, Mom!!!

Some of you know her, some of you don't, (she is like the Katherine Jackson of meteorologists) but it is my mom's birthday today.  Feel free to post her a happy birthday if you wish.

As your meteorological bartender, I get to say that we have another day of beautiful weather on tap.  Clear, sunny skies will dominate today's picture as a ridge of high pressure is well in control.  Still a little breezy with winds out of the west around 10-14mph.  But the temperatures should be even warmer today than yesterday.  My predicted high of 67 was off by 1 yesterday (d'oh), but I was closer than my comrades.  Today highs should be in the low-mid 70s, right around average for May 29th, my mom's birthday.

Unfortunately, for my mom, Duluth will not be so nice.  They will see a very likely chance of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms that will extend into early tomorrow morning and highs in the low 60s (63 is my guess).  But that will just give her more of an excuse to stay inside and party.

Today: Sunny and clear.  High 74.  W winds @ 8-14mph.
Tonight: Clear.  Evening lows in the upper 60s down to 59 by morning. NW winds @ 5mph.
Tomorrow:  Sunny w/ clouds in the afternoon.  High 79.

Who's Katherine Jackson and how am I like her? Is she the "hottie" of the meteorological world? :-)

I have the day off today, so I don't really care if it's nice out or not. (Like they say, a bad day at home is still better than a good day at work, right?)

Thanks for the personalized forecast though. I love you.

Mom

Happy Birthday Auntie Linda! (And I would also like to know who Katherine Jackson is... I'm assuming it was a compliment that you were compared to her!)

Sam, I love your blogs... can you start forecasting Bemidji, MN weather too?!? It would be really helpful to know when we should take the day off to go fishing... ;)

Katherine Jackson is Michael Jackson's mother. Sam wanted to compare you to a famous mom- I suggested Blythe Danner (the lovely and talented mother of Gwyneth Paltrow) but Sam didn't think anyone would know who she was- silly Sam.

Anyway, I hope you're having a wonderful birthday!
