At Home in the Huddle 2009: Friday

A very brief post, this morning,
mostly to let those blog readers who had an interest in when the beaver tree would fall and where it would land:

IT'S DOWN!

The wind was really whipping.

I found "voice mail" recorded at 10:38 telling me that the tree had fallen in the road and that the Township crew had been there with chain saw and muscle to get it out of the way.

Will the beaver appreciate it?

We'll see!

WKTV's forecast:

Dense fog advisories for Oneida, Madison, Chenango, and Otsego County until 9AM this morning

Good morning Central New York! A return to nice and quiet weather today, but more unsettled weather as we head into the weekend.
Yesterday's cold front has now pushed well to the east. An area of high pressure is expected to build into the region today, and give us pleasant weather today. For this morning, some fog has settled across the region. Dense fog is expected in spots this morning before lifting between 7-9AM. Expect plenty of sunshine this afternoon. High temperatures will reach 68-73.
Clouds will be on the increase late tonight, as our next weather maker approaches the region. Overnight lows will be quiet mild, in the low 50s.

Some sunshine to start out Saturday morning. Temperatures will climb into the upper 70s during the afternoon before a cold front sparks off showers and thunderstorms. We expect the chance of showers and storms in the afternoon and evening, and some of these storms could be on the strong side. Thunderstorms may be accompanied by gusty winds and/or small hail.

Much cooler weather expected on Sunday, if not downright chilly. Highs on Sunday only expected in the low 50s with the chance for some rain showers. Better weather is expected for next week. A return to sunshine, with temperatures warming up into the 60s and 70s by mid week. By the end of the week, temperatures may approach 80 degrees or better. Have a great weekend!"

Right now it's 42 degrees and pleasant.
