30's for lows?

Sorry about yesterdays blog, I put in a bit of wishcasting in the bottom half. As far as I am concerned, that system is still on track to get us but its pretty far off and its the GFS model which always makes things over dramatic. Bit of pessimism kicking in, but I will still keep my fingers crossed. Ok, so this morning hit 36 degrees, brr that's chilly! The morning before it got to 38! So whats going on here? Well, we have what we call Radiational Cooling, if the night is clear, the heat has no where to go but up! So now we have longer nights, and the skies have been clear, expect a pretty cold night. I put the low tonight as 35, we have clear nights so we will see if I can get this right. Low temperatures are particularly hard to predict, so I use the dewpoint to help me set a target low. If the dewpoint, any time of the day, usually around the 5:50 time period is in the 30's, we have a good chance to see our temps reach in the 30's. So I look at that, last night it was in the 29 degree area but I assure you that it will not get that cold for awhile as a low. Take care!
