 DISCUSSION: With Election Day 2016 now well underway, many people have been asking what the weather will be like for the rest of Election Day and Election Night all across the contiguous United States. As you can fairly easily see in the image and brief forecast video above, there is a weak low pressure system currently moving through portions of the south-central United States. Therefore, as we move through both today and tonight, there will continue to be some light impacts from this lighter rainfall. Be sure to watch the national forecast briefing so you can maximize the rest of your election day plans, will know how to dress, and whether you will need an umbrella when you head out to the polls.

 DISCUSSION: As dawn begins to break across the contiguous United States later this morning, Election Day 2016 will be underway rather quickly. Having said that, as you can see both in the image and brief forecast video above, there is a weak low pressure system currently moving through portions of the south-central United States. Therefore, as we move through the day tomorrow, there will certainly be some light impacts from this incoming rainfall. Who will be impacted and what will be the timing of it all? Be sure to watch the short national forecast briefing for your election day plans tomorrow to know how to dress and know whether you will need an umbrella for when you head out to the polls.

"Dr. Kelly Redmond, Deputy Director of WRCC, lost his battle with cancer yesterday. Since 1986, Kelly has been the voice and face of WRCC and has pioneered many approaches in applied climatology. Clear communication of climate data and information to both expert and lay audiences was central to Kelly’s mission. He worked tirelessly to develop tools and services that could support everyone, from kindergarten teachers to research scientists, in utilizing climate data. Through his efforts, he established WRCC as a valued broker of climate information for the West, providing data and services with integrity and transparency. Kelly loved a good conversation and took great interest in all people and things. With equal enthusiasm, he would talk to rural Nevadans about mining over a drink at the bar or engage in discussions on the climate system at an academic conference. He enjoyed documenting the natural world in photography, especially out of airplane windows during his frequent travels around the US. Kelly served as a mentor, friend, and colleague to many in the applied climate community and beyond, and will be dearly missed. WRCC will carry his teachings and values forward in our provision of climate services." From a personal standpoint, Dr. Kelly Redmond also had a part in influencing certain parts of my nearly-completed Masters research in addition to also being a truly great man and scientist who will be missed dearly for a long time to come! May you rest in peace Dr. Redmond and live on through our hearts, memories, and future experiences!
