The glasses will be raised, resolutions will be made, and the lyrics to Auld Lang Synge will be butchered and slurred, but if your planning another typical New Year's Eve, you may want to plan on some changing weather. An arctic cold front's on the way just in time for 2008. For the record, I swear Dick Clark is like 100 years old!



Look at the monster ridge building across the Pacific Northwest by New Year's Eve. More jetstream energy on the east side of the ridge will send the cold air across Canada south throughout the southern plains.




850 mb temperatures are forecast to drop between -12 to -13 degrees Celsius. The cold air advection will give us highs in the 30s, and lows in the teens for Tuesday and Wednesday. Happy 2008!
