When will this east wind let up? Will it snow? The weather prognosticators in these parts often get it wrong this time of year. But as they'll tell you, forecasting can be tricky.

Mark Nelsen, the resident climate guesser at channel 12, has started his own weather blog. I've always liked Nelsen, all the way back to his Doogie Howser days in the early '90s on channel 6. Seeing what's coming across his desk as he tries to say what tomorrow's skies will bring is actually more interesting than I thought it would be. And for some additional serious input for meteorology addicts, Nelsen's got this page, which should kill hours.
