Meteorologist Cary Burgess was our speaker last Wednesday, and educated us on current forecasts and trends in local weather.
Cary grew up in Kerrville, and was interested in weather at a young age. He spent many years doing network weather, and now provides weather forecasts for several local media outlets. There is a strong artic blast coming our way next week, and nearly every state will be affected. There is a slight chance of some light snow in our area.
Cary doesn't use weather apps much- he relies on various other sources and likes to plot his own maps and forecasts. Snow is hard to predict, as the conditions need to be just right.
Many areas in Texas received much needed rain last year to ease the drought. Lubbock even received more rain that Kerrville last year, but we are still in a drought in the Kerr county area. The current weather pattern is a La Nina, which is warmer and dryer than normal. It usually only lasts until early spring.
