    Hello Cliff and friends, right now the local ski areas are offering great discounts on season passes for next winter . What do we know about winter 09/10? LaNina, neutral, El Nino? How far in advance can these things be predicted? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

    Rob,
    The lines are temperatures, the x axis is time in UTC (same as GMT), and the ordinate (y axis is height). Wind are plotted with the flags. So you can see how conditions have changed above Seattle in time...cliff
