We might have a slushy mix of rain and snow across parts of the state tonight, but how do we get the different types of winter precipitation?
It's more than the air temperature at the surface - it matters what's above ground too.
More warm air, less snow - more sleet and rain.

I'm starting to gain confidence in a potentially stormy finish to November which could feature more than one opportunity for organized severe thunderstorms and heavy rain from the Southern Plains to the Ohio Valley in the last ten days of November:

Couldn't have said it any better myself
The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

1. If passengers book a flight from the EU and it is canceled or significantly delayed, they are entitled to cash compensation — $300 to $700.
In the US, flyers were supposed to get similar rights soon.
But those plans have been scrapped by the Trump administration.
Here's how it happened.

125 years ago today: the Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900... 4th deadliest natural disaster in US history.
A major hurricane landfall in TX that was well-forecast by the Cubans, and ignored by the US Weather Bureau. Not a shining moment in international relations, and with terrible consequences.
