Friday 8:40 a.m.
Today is Saxophone Day, celebrating the birth in 1814 of Adolphe Sax, who invented the instrument. Before that, I guess they didn't have a safe sax. Certainly no sax in public. Along the Northeast Coast, there was brief time when it was raining to beat the band last night. For today there will be chilly woodswinds at such places as Bass River, Massachusetts, Sussax County Delaware and Oboe-ken New Jersey. Drying winds have been clarinet in many sections early this morning.
Some people harp on about not wanting it get cold, but there's no law saying you have to play in the Northeast or Great Lakes sections. Many people like this arrangement in November. Today feels invigorating outside so there is no reason to B flat and you will be able to C sharp! How chilly will it get tonight? In New York City, we piccolo of 38.
For the weekend, from Chicago and Detroit to Philadelphia, New York City and Boston, the weather shouldn't harmony one. Our staff likes it: some sunshine and very little haze along with mild breezes and woods winds. G! Daytime temperatures will rise to a higher key, and will not really drop off a clef in the foreseeable future. Of course the warm weather can't last forever. Strings of mild days usually don't fiddle around too long in November. Pretty soon we'll reach our coda. The arrangement for next week features mild weather at the beginning and end, but a chill at midweek.
For the week after next, we cannot be sure of the weather's composure. I don't think any forecast with specific details stanza chance. Numerical models have given us several different reedings on the trend. We might eventually beat the drums about it getting colder, but that will depend on how much chilly air the winds can snare. I apologize for not offering specifics. If you are trying to make arrangements based relying on knowing exact details two weeks in advance, you have my symphonies. In the short term, football weather will be good in the Great Lakes and Northeast, and fans will be hoping the defense for their team will have plenty of sax.

I have not thought of these in awhile! I remember hearing these "poems" on the weather so many times on KYW news radio growing up in Philadelphia. They are great!

Elliot, i guess you had to Bass your poem on the chello ( or mello) weather the computer strung out . GREAT JOB!!!

That was seriously impressive. Just one sentence out of this article would be a quotable. But multiple paragraphs? You have won my respect.

We need an encore! This was a "note" worthy piece by someone that has a flair for writing that is certainly unique and extremely pleasant to reed (pun on words intended). A symphony to my eyes and mind, I might add.
I love watching your videos because you explain the weather in simple terms so that us laymen can understand the intricacies.
Enjoy the weather, no matter what it brings to us.
I'm anxious to see if Ida comes up the east coast as a tropical depression, hurricane or just a nor'easter. I would think because it is so late in the season it will either be the latter or a tropical depression. Time will tell because the long term predictions conflict.
Sincerely,
Jeanette

I truly appreciate the tranquil movement of weather here in southern New York along with your unique way of expressing it.
Da capo and repeat :||

Elliot-what a wonderful and fun piece you have written. It's clean, thoughtful, and brought a smile to my face. On another note, pun intended, I used to hear you and listen to youin Philadelphia on the radio. It's nice sharing the years with you old friend.
