The Vane will go quiet from Monday, January 26, until Monday, February 2, so I can take a week off to figure out new and exciting ways to hype boring weather. As always, I'll have coverage if there are pressing matters like a sharknado or if the Senate decides to vote on whether or not the Earth is flat.

The Vane is enjoying some time off this week. We ("we") will be back in full capacity on Monday. Enjoy this photo we ("we") took of a thunderstorm the other day. Have a good week and happy weathering.
