    Philly Weather Forecast Change- Sat Eve [2]
    Yet another change in the forecast for Sunday. The latest NAM data just became available and it shows the rain holding off until Sunday evening again. Additionally, it holds off the heavier rain until the early hours of Monday and Monday morning.

    Unfortunately, my source of GFS Grib2 live data hasn't been available over the past week, so will have to wait for the end of the model run to get the update. This won't be available until after midnight.

    The bottom line is that the weather during the day Sunday may be drier than previously predicted.

    Sun 1/24: Partial sun very early, then thickening clouds. Rain develops very late in the afternoon. Mild. High 51.

    With the slowing of this system, the January Thaw may be with us through Wednesday. Temps are expected to go below normal for next weekend.

    Solar Climate Discussion: This past summer (see post), I suggested that this upcoming winter would be unusually cold due to a lull in solar activity. The sun remains at a prolonged minimum sunspot activity, although there has finally been a long expected uptick in activity over the past two months indicating the beginning of Solar Cycle 24. Total Solar Irradiance is about 1 watt/m2 lower than it was during the peak of the last solar cycle in April 2000. Continue to expect below normal temperatures on average for this winter and early spring.
