By The Associated Press More than 6 inches of snow fell overnight in Stampede Pass, Wash., and predawn temperatures today dropped below zero in parts of Idaho and Minnesota. Fog and clouds blanketed the West Coast. The nation's low temperature at 3 a.m. was 2 degrees below zero at Grand Rapids, Minn. An hour later it was 3 degrees below zero in Des Moines, Iowa. A strong cold front was expected to move out of the Pacific Northwest and into the northern Plains and central Intermountain region today, pushing strong winds towards the Rockies. Wind gusts exceeding 50 mph were possible. Rain or snow was called for from the northwest Plains to Minnesota and upper Michigan. Snow accumulations could reach 6 inches in the Cascades and northern Rockies. Scattered rain showers were headed for the Gulf Coast to the southern Appalachians, the region, and the southern East Coast. Thunderstorms were possible from southeast Louisiana to parts of Alabama. Florida and South Carolina. Sunday's hot spot in the Lower 48 was Del Rio. Texas, where it was 88 degrees. The coldest reported temperature was minus in Caribou. Maine.

This quickly affects our feet and fingers. The body then pools the blood around the cavity of our chest, protecting our vita! organs. Conversely, when the heat is turned up the body reacts in a completely opposite way, sending blood to the skin's surface to induce sweating that cools the body. So on chilly days, make sure to dress in layers to keep that thermometer steady. DRY HEAT No, we're not talking about Arizona's climate. I'm referring to the climate in our homes during the winter season. As air from the cold outdoors is used to warm our homes, the humidity is dramatically affected. Cold air can't hold as much moisture as warm air. so the winter air supply enters our homes drier and humidity levels may drop below 20 percent. This dry air promotes chapping skin and lips and V Carol Azure, Cherry Hills Elementary School national Temperatures Temperatures indicate prexious day's high and overnight low to 7:32 a.m. EST.

Oth- er options, such as boiling water or leaving tubs filled with water, waste energy, can be dangerous and aren't as effective. MEASURING WIND Wind has been measured for many years using the Beaufort wind scale. This was developed by Sir Francis Beaufort of the British Royal Navy back in the early 1800s. He devised the model so that reports of wind could be more specific and scientific, rather than relying on adjectives such as "breezy," "calm" or "windy." Beaufort's scale ranges from 0. which indicates calm winds, to 17 indicating gusts in excess of 75 mph. His model was used mainly by sailors. Other scientists have used the same principle for catego THE TALE OF TAILS Clouds hold the clues to upcomif you know ing weather events what to look for. Long before technical eyes were in the skies watching the clouds and upcoming storms, forecasting was left to the eyes of those below. Farmers especially became quite the forecasters just by watching the clouds go by. They knew that if the cumulus clouds (the ones looking like cotton balls) were smaller at sunset than at the noon hour, nice, dry weather would continue. Mares tails were also watched for weather clues. As folklore has it, if the tails point up, watch for a storm. If they point down, the weather will be dry and uneventful.

CALL E Associated Press Can the weather be too cold for snow, as we so often hear? Not really. Temperatures are actually never too cold to produce snow, though it may seem like it simply because the coldest air we experience comes from the north and northwest. These are areas that lack large bodies of water. So as storm systems approach, there is a lack of moisture and therefore lack of snow. It's is easy to see why people may believe that the colder the storm, the better the chance of not seeing snow. If, however, the storm is racing in from the west or south, watch out! These are the ones that bring the heavy stuff.
