WARMING UP!
PLEASE CONSIDER WHAT YOU'RE GETTING...
I hope you are aware of how far ahead of the competition TSwails has been in catching the trends of our early winter weather pattern. It takes a heck of a lot of commitment, passion, and knowledge to do that. This is now my job and that's why I'm asking for a voluntary subscription fee of $12 dollars a year, one dollar a month to keep TSwails going. Together we can create one of the best, most unique, and reliable weather sites in the Midwest. Your contribution of 3 cents a day, allows me to stay free of the corporate world and pour my energy into doing what I do best, forecasting the weather! We hope you see the value and hard work that goes into the site everyday. You support in any way is sincerely appreciated. Thanks and roll weather. To donate click on the secure green box below.
MONDAY'S FEATURED POST
We had back to back days above freezing this weekend which allowed for much of the snow to melt across the Midwest. The warm up will continue through the upcoming week. Here's a look at the start of the week, Monday's high temperatures:
The day will be fairly quiet with the chance for some light rain coming late Monday night into Tuesday morning. This is as a weak system moves into the area.
Temperatures will be near and slightly below normal Monday and Tuesday. Then a stronger storm system comes in Wednesday and bumps temperatures above normal - finally.
This system will not be bringing snow (this time!) and just plain old rain to much of the Upper Midwest late Wednesday into Thursday.
Colder air will eventually move in behind this system and temperatures will be back down below normal Friday afternoon -
Temperatures will likely remain near and below normal through the end of the month. We'll see what lies ahead in December! RK

The opening bell rings this January and you can be a member of the very first graduating class. The one-day forecasting seminar for weather enthusiasts will be held at his home in January. It’s not your typical run-of-the-mill school. There will be no tests, but Terry, Rebecca, and Nick will cram your head with so much knowledge, it’ll be spinning like a tornado before the day is over
You want to know the essential online sites to use for models, radar, and the basic weather tools? DONE! You want to understand the structure of models and the role they play? DONE! You want to be able to construct forecasts from the ground up? DONE!
WEATHER SCHOOL will be presented in a seminar-type format where you'll have the ability to ask questions and dig deep. You’ll get the scoop on data acquisition, model analysis, severe weather, and actual forecasting from the big dog himself, T. Swails. With 43 years of experience and an uncanny ability to break the science down, you’ll open the door to forecasting like never before.

The seminar will be held January 25th and will last from noon until 5:00pm. We have limited seating and the cost is $ 99 dollars per person. A catered lunch will be provided.
