Whether The Weather

Its the first of the year, which among other things is the time I reset my weather station’s statistics. For your geek edification, here are the weather stats for 2005 at the Turner household (North Raleigh near Durant and Capital):

Coldest temperature: 12.4 F, January 11th, 7:21 AM.
Hottest temperature: 104.2 F, July 28th, 1:32 PM.
Highest humidity: 100% (any rainy day, duh)
Lowest humidity: 20%, November 1st, 2 PM.
Highest wind gust: 20.6 MPH, August 31st, 2PM (a MT.Net record)
Total measured rainfall: ~ 29.11 inches (sensor was inoperative during some storms)

Speaking of weather, tomorrow promises some rough stuff. A “vigorous” front will roar into town, possibly even spawning a tornado. Keep an eye on conditions – and stay close to your Weather Radio if you have one (and if you don’t have one, get one)!
