So should be a cool showery day on Saturday with maybe a little snow mixed in.<BR/><BR/><A>http://www.atmos.washington.edu/cgi-bin/latest.cgi?profiler</A><BR/><BR/>---------<BR/><BR/>Made a few spelling errors on first post I deleted my frist post and am re-posting again. :o)andycottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12696751462397354299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-52426115859447173462009-01-29T20:05:00.000-08:002009-01-29T20:05:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.andycottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12696751462397354299noreply@blogger.com
