Douglas County commissioners will hold their regular meeting at 1:30 p.m. today, but not in the regular place. An open house to introduce residents to their new meeting room in the Tahoe Transportation Center will be 1 p.m. When they get down to business, the county dads and mom will hear a presentation from the Nevada Highway Patrol, make appointments to the Board of Equalization and talk about the county's strategy for the upcoming 2007 Legislature, which kicks off in February.
The traffic signal at Highway 395 and Stephanie Way will wait one more day and will start work on Friday morning.
It seems everyone has adapted to the fact that it is 5 degrees outside at sunrise. Most of the calls the NHP is responding to so far this morning are in Clark County. The high temperature today is supposed to hit 38 and according to the National Weather Service will bump up into the 40s by the weekend. The lows will get into the teens. What doesn't appear on the horizon is any more storms bearing moisture.
This may be hard to believe right now, but according to the three-month model prepared by the weather service today, temperatures for February, March and April are predicted to be slightly above normal while the chance for moisture appears it might be above normal, especially to the south. Forecasters are predicting that El Nino will be a factor in our weather through February.
Services for Nevada's longest serving climatologist, John James, are 10 a.m. Saturday in Reno at Mountain View Mortuary.
