Who Needs The Groundhog? The Mirror
Tells You What To Expect This Month
What’s the weather going to be
like this month.
Well, if it follows the usual pat
tern of the past 10 years, visual
flight rules apply 87.1 per cent of
the time. Instrument flying will
apply 9.9 per cent, leaving a bal
ance of 3.0 per cent of 20.2 hours
that the field is below landing min
imums.
TEMPERATURES
During the past decade the av
erage daily mean temperature has
been 32.1 degrees with an average
daily maximum of 36.1 degrees and
a low of 27.3.
The highest recorded was in 1957
when Big Red went up to 56 de
grees and the lowest was recorded
that same year when it got down
to three degrees above.
Average daily sea water temper
ature will probably be 33.4 degrees
resulting in a daily mean air-sea
temperature difference of 1.3 de
grees.
And maybe there will be less
rain next month, as the records
show that the total for February
in that span has been 3.96 inches,
which is less than what we received
last week. Precipitation of at least
0.01 inches occurred on an average
of 14.4 days with the maximum in
a 24 hour .period of 1.41 inches.
MAYBE SNOW, THOUGH
The record books show that the
average snowfall for February is
14.9 inches—which is quite a bit
more than we have received to dale
this year.
Nearly 65 per cent of 64.8 per
cent of the time the sky cover is
at least six tenths clear with clear
conditions occurring only 16.3 per
cent of the time or a total of 109.05
hours.
The prevailing wind direction,
based on past records, will be from
the Northwest with an average
hourly speed of 10.6 knots. A wind
speed maximum of 68 knots, slight
ly above hurricane stage, came
from the west northwest eight
years ago in 1955.
PARKING WARNING
Chief R. E. Vickery said this
week motorists who park across
from Kraft’s and Knudsen’s are
subject to the one hour time limit
on parking. Any person who vio
lates this ordinance is subject to
receive a citation. Chief Vickery
reminds that such parkers place
their vehicles in the lot at the
small boat harbor.
POLICE SLOGAN
If motorists would think a little
faster they probably would drive
a little slower.
