Sunset Today: 7:47p.m. Sunrise Thursday: 7:06 a.m.
Map Discussion: The cold front that passed Bryan-Coilege Station last night,
with an intense low pressure system over the Central Appalachians, will produce
widespread showers and thunderstorms in the eastern United States. The air
mass behind the front in the northwest is maritime in origin; thus, expect no
significant snow. Locally, we will experience decreasing cloudiness, but it will be
somewhat cooler today, tonight and tomorrow. As the high pressure cell in the
Texas panhandle moves rather rapidly eastward, we will start a warm trend again
Thursday afternoon.
Forecast:
Today: Mostly cloudy early with decreasing cloudiness through the day. High of
75. Winds north at 12 to 20 mph, with a slight chance of a post-frontal shower this
morning.
Tonight Fair and mild. Low of 47. Northeast wind at 3 to 8 mph.
Thurssday.Part\y cloudy and warm. High of 81. Winds will return to the southeast
at 7 to 12 mph.
Weather Fact Ionization — In atmospheric electricity, the process by which
neutral atmopheric molecules become electrically charged. The main sources of
atmospheric ionization are cosmic rays and emanations from radioactice gases.
