Cold in the South!

It is cold here in New Orleans, around 40 F with a stiff Pontchartrain breeze. It was raining very heavy this morning on our 6 block walk to the convention center to start our Student Conference. I had a nice rain jacket which worked great to keep my shirt dry but didn't help my jeans since all the water was shed down onto my pants. Needless to say all of our pants were soaked to start off our morning. Between the rain coming down and dodging the large street puddles we were doing pretty well. The conference has been really good so far, have a little break this afternoon and then a career fair tonight. Afterwards might try to find a cajun place to eat.

As far as weather goes, our cloudy skies here will be clearing out soon and maybe get a peek of sunshine before the day is over while the trough continues to move out across Florida. Looking on satellite Colorado is sitting under a shallow high pressure ridge bringing NW flow.
