Yesterday brought us a mix of rain and snow which became mostly snow as the day wore on.  It did leave a light covering which has melted since then.  Today is just damp and chilly, but temperatures are still above average.  At least we aren’t getting flooded like the west coast is.  I’m just wondering how all of this rain will affect Lake Mead, which was 27 ft. below normal level at one point.  I’d like to hear from those of you in the western part of the country to perhaps give some info on this.  According to my weather advisor, Ryan Hall, there are more of these storms on the way, so I hope that everyone there stays safe.

Our 1:15 PM temperature is 37°F, the humidity is 89%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the west at 4-8 mph, and the wind chill is 30°F.  The pressure is 30.06 in and steady, and the dew point is 32°F.  Yesterday’s high was 37°F and the overnight low was 32°F.  Average temps for this date are 30°F / 18°F.  Record highs for Jan. 5 are 57°F / -15°F.  Sunrise was at 8:08 AM and sunset will be at 5:17 PM.
