Today featured sunny skies but clouds are on the increase. A cold front moves through tonight bringing the chance for rain and also snow showers along with breezy winds from the NW. Snow showers could reduce visibility in spots, providing a tricky morning commute. Wouldn't be surprised if some spots wake up to a dusting or coating on the ground. Could shape up to be the first snow for many. Tomorrow will be chilly following the cold front passage, allowing cold, arctic air from Canada to spread into New England.
VETERANS DAY: Mostly sunny with increasing clouds in the evening. Highs in the mid to upper 40s. Winds from the W at 10 to 20 mph with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: A chance of rain and snow showers. Lows dropping into the mid to upper 20s. Gusty winds from the NW.
TOMORROW: Cooler, with highs only reaching the upper 30s. Generally sunny. Windy with NW winds at 10 to 20 mph, gusting to 30.
Current radar showing light snow spreading from Iowa into the Great Lakes. This is the system that moves here tonight pic.twitter.com/3FupXjO2KbStarted a new, fun weather game that sort of resembles fantasy football in which selected cities in the Northeast collect points based on ground observations and compete head-to-head against each other to determine who really has the most extreme weather in the Northeast. The preseason has gotten started and the 1st inaugural season begins on December 1st. Check it out!! http://nexwl.blogspot.com/ Also follow @NEXWL for up to the minute developments!

WORLD WEATHER
- Haiyan impacted Vietnam and China as a weakened form but took 13 more lives, in addition to the thousands in the Philippines. Haiyan has moved inland into Southern China and will finally be out of here for good. Continued thoughts and prayers to the Philippines. http://worldnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/11/11/21400489-weakening-haiyan-continues-north-to-china-and-vietnam-killing-more

EARTHQUAKES
- There were no earthquakes rated at or above M6 since the last update yesterday.
SPACE WEATHER
- Had some minor geomagnetic disturbances with the Kp index rising to 4 in response to perturbations in solar wind and density. 60% of an M-class flare and 30% for an X-class flare today...most likely from Sunspot 1890. Awaiting the CME arrival around Wednesday. Even though activity has ramped up recently, the solar cycle is still nothing close to what we should see during solar maximum. Interesting article on the lack of sunspots and erratic behaviors of the sun... http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304672404579183940409194498
