Here is what it looks like for your drive home today.
7 am EDT temps in the mid 30s maybe some scattered showers.
11 am EDT temps in the low 40s scattered showers.
3 pm temps in the mid 40s (light snow possible in the Cleveland area temps low to mid 30s). Scattered showers all the way to NKY.
I think it is also but I think the main difference is accuracy. The way I understand it UTC time came about in the 1960s and Zulu time has been around much longer. I think UTC came about around the time countries started putting satellites into space. I could be wrong on that point though.
Actually Zulu time is different. It is based on the zero meridian which goes through Greenwich, England. It is also known as GMT or Greenwhich Mean Time. It is not quite as accurate for time as UTC time. It was really confusing to mean when I first started doing these weather reports until I study on it. I didn't know there were actually different.
It is based on an atomic clock and is the worlds official reference for time. UTC time is used by planes, ships at sea and weather satellites. There are no time zones and it is the same time no matter where you are in the world. For instance 0000 UTC (8 pm 12 hour clock) starts a new day. So at 0000 UTC it turned into Thursday. Where in a 12 hour clock the new day starts at midnight.
Ok this one shows the possible rain from Friday morning till Saturday afternoon. Hopefully these will keep working. The file size has been the main problem.
Nope not over yet. Looks like another chance of snow and temps in the mid teens to close out the month of March. This is around the last weekend of the month.
right now temps in the low to mid 30s. Little or no chance of precipitation. Temps look to in the upper 40s to low 50s in Winchester by Saturday afternoon.
Stay off the roads when conditions become hazardous. One picture is #WeatherReady and the other is not. Avoid the danger...and the misery.
