Forecast Insight For Thursday, November 5, 2009
Today:
Synopsis of Weather Conditions:
Today high pressure centered to our west will keep us dry while producing a light northwest breeze. The northwest winds will help to limit some of the daytime heating, but we’re still looking a seasonable Thursday as the normal high for November 5th in Evansville is 60 degrees. Enjoy the pleasant yet slightly cool day.

Tomorrow:
Synopsis of Weather Conditions:
Tomorrow is another gloriously boring day with high pressure still imposing its will upon the viewing area resulting in sunny skies. A readjustment in the position of the high pressure system to our southeast will help to create a more southerly wind helping the temperatures rise into the 60’s and certainly make for a milder afternoon compared to what’s expected for your Thursday. This warming trend will continue into the weekend when high temperatures near 70 are forecasted.

*What someone deems to be unseasonably warm or unseasonably cool is entirely subjective and also depends on the typical temperature variability of any given location. For the purposes of the chart above, unseasonably warm will be defined as having a high temperature greater than 10 degrees above the seasonable average for that day at KEVV (The Evansville Regional Airport). Likewise, unseasonably cool will be defined as having a high temperature 10 degrees below the seasonable average for that day at KEVV.
**It’s important to note that Ron’s temperature forecasts may significantly differ with the other forecasts from time to time. There are two reasons for this. First, Ron is working with older model data than myself when I come in during the morning hours and produce my forecast. Model forecasts can vary significantly between issuances. Second, Ron may see reasonable meteorological evidence to vary his forecast significantly from the models and myself. His forecast is added to the temperature forecast grids to provide additional perspective into the forecast.
