[sac-forum] Re: 5MM Today

We were looking fine earlier in the week with things (like cloudiness) moving 
on ahead of us. Now it's like everything shifted over a couple of days with 
Monday being the start of the clear days. It looks like the front that passed 
through a couple of days ago is in no hurry to move on across the country. It's 
rotation has the air flow coming from the ENE with a fair amount of moisture. 
Currently it's generating thunderstorms over the NE corner of New Mexico. Out 
west of us it's perfectly clear. BTW - "Dry thunderstorm" - you get killed by 
the lightening strike but don't need to worry about getting wet.
