11 Weather Forecast
Sarah Schwabe
Saturday, February 11th

It will be a raw start to the weekend. Low clouds, fog, flurries, and light freezing drizzle should persist throughout the day. High temperatures will only manage the 20s. Most areas east of the mountains will remain "socked in" through early Sunday morning.

So, the three main concerns through early Sunday morning are as follows:

1. Temps will be very cold. High humidity will make it feel even colder.

2. Areas of locally dense fog will lead to poor visibility for travelers east of the mountains.

3. Pockets of freezing drizzle and/or very light snow will likely lead to some icy spots on the roads (again, east of the mountains).

Drier air is set to move in from the west by Sunday afternoon, leading to improving sky conditions and SLIGHTLY warmer temperatures. Areas south and southwest of Pueblo might end up MUCH warmer by day's end.

At this point, most of next week is looking quiet and seasonably cool.

Deconstructing a mystery: What caused Snowmaggedon?
Scientists are using computer models to help unravel the mystery of a record-setting snowfall in the Washington, DC area in early 2010.
January 2012 fourth warmest for contiguous United States, but Alaska extremely cold
During January, warmer-than-average conditions enveloped most of the contiguous United States, with widespread below-average precipitation. The overall weather pattern for the month was reflected in the lack of snow for much of the Northern Plains, Midwest, and Northeast. This scenario was in stark contrast to Alaska where several towns had their coldest January on record.
Low-cost instrument developed by high school students could aid severe weather research
A group of high school students designed, built and tested a low-cost device that monitors the buildup of electrical charge in clouds. A network of such field mill devices could be used to learn more about the lightning that is part of severe weather.
Tree rings may underestimate climate response to volcanic eruptions
Some climate cooling caused by past volcanic eruptions may not be evident in tree-ring reconstructions of temperature change because large enough temperature drops lead to greatly shortened or even absent growing seasons, according to climate researchers, who compared tree-ring temperature reconstructions with model simulations of past temperature changes.
Caribbean lizards settle 'founder effect' controversy
In the first experimental study of the founder effect in a natural setting, researchers found that natural selection does not overwhelm the founder effect.
