The Big 2015 TV Switch
Among things being dropped from New York tonight: WISH-TV‘s CBS affiliation. Mrs. Poteet has changed her 12:30pm DVR setup from 8 to 4, so I guess our switch is complete around here. I was excited at first to read about a new WISH prime-time show called “Jane The Virgin,” because I thought they were bringing […]
Today In Weather History
March 29, 1848 – Niagara Falls eased to a trickle during the late afternoon, then was “silent” for 30 hours. An ice jam at the neck of Lake Erie and the Niagara River entrance between Fort Erie, Ontario, and Buffalo, New York, was caused by wind, waves, and lake currents. March 29, 1921 – The […]

Indiana’s Weather For Tuesday
Today’s Indiana weather will be suddenly colder, but the near future is much milder. I think the great philosopher Paula Abdul put it best in 1990: “Two steps forward, two steps back.” Dry air builds in behind the weather maker that made some snow showers appear for awhile Monday night. The Indy Airport reported a […]
Indiana’s Weather For Friday
Fog is a factor again Friday morning, but the fog and low clouds shouldn’t last as long today. One reason will be an increase in wind speed by midday and afternoon. It will be a gusty weekend, with Saturday afternoon breezes to 25mph, and Sunday wind gusts up to 30mph. Expect warmer degrees in the […]
Indiana’s Weather For Thursday
November begins with more sun and less wind. So far, I like it. The Sandy/SuperStorm remains are sliding into Canada, leaving us with a clear morning start and the possibility of a few afternoon and evening clouds. Friday is looking good. If you’re running the Indy Monumental Saturday…sorry. I am now putting in a slight […]

Indiana’s Weather For Tuesday
Tuesday morning fog is connected to good news. More recent rain. (Combined with a light wind and a clearing sky above the cloud at ground level.) As promised, yesterday’s makes August the (TA DA!) wettest month of 2012, so far! The .28″ of an inch at the Airport gives us a 4.20″ total for August. […]
