Interesting turn of events...

Yesterday I see a cloud that resembles a funnel...and today my home county goes under a Tornado warning. The storm is small, but seriously potent. It missed home by only a few miles. We dodged a bullet. I'll try to find out if it actually did put down a tornado. The radar image is below. Thanks to WeatherUnderground.

2010 Bridgestone Winter Classic Weather Forecast

I looked at January weather statistics for Pittsburgh in recent years, as well as the climate forecasts for this year and came up with what I think will be a good forecast for January 1st.
This year is the beginning of a La Nina climate cycle, which means average temperatures and slightly above average precipitation for the Pittsburgh area. I'm also taking into account the recent storm activity and the lake effect snows which have been really cranking over the last few weeks.

I'm going to call for high temperatures slightly below freezing, with a stiff wind from the NW (10-12mph). For the game, more clouds than sun, chance of some sort of frozen precipitation, 60%.

Come back in a few weeks and see if I'm right!
