9:55PM: At long last, we are back in action! The trend has been towards cool weather across the country. It’s in the 40s for highs along the northern tier, and if it isn’t down there yet, it will be soon. A particularly effective cold front is coming for New England. Even without prodigious rain, it will bring temperatures down to something more autumnal. Sorry!

11:06PM: Just think, in a few weeks, this would all be snow. Well, actually not. All these light radar returns are actually upwind from the Great Lakes, which, as any local might be able to tell you, is not how Lake Effect Snow works.
