how to read weather conditions at noaa.gov?

I was looking at the hour by hour over here:http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mesowe...WD&num=168&raw=0&dbn=m What do things like BKN014 or FEW016 mean?

Going to Yellowknife (NW Territories, Canada)

Yea, it was something else. There's not a lot I can compare it to in my life. We camped out on the ice road to Dettah from 10-3am. Lights appeared around midnight. It was -33 that night, never been so cold in my life. Apparently some of the planes won't take off if it's -40C. Fortunately the...

Going to Yellowknife (NW Territories, Canada)

I'm a pretty restless guy, way more to see than seeable in a lifetime, but I might as well try. This is what I did last year, http://maps.google.com/maps/ms...175.788391,360&t=h&z=1 It was pretty rushed, 3 days here, 5 days there. The whole thing was more exhausting than anything else, but I...

Going to Yellowknife (NW Territories, Canada)

Certainly will be cold. Last year I was trying to see the Northern Lights in northern Sweden, but the sky never cleared. I'm going to try again, but this time in Yellowknife. I'll be there for a few days. The Lights are obviously a night thing, so any suggestions for what to do during the...

Suggest some snowboard/ski goggles

Hi Guys, I need to buy some snowboard goggles. Any suggestions? I'm told the cheap ones (15-25 bucks) fog up easily. Is their anything special you get with extremely expensive goggles that you don't get with the cheaper ones.

What plant is this?

I live in California (as of a few months ago). The house I'm renting rightnow is surrounded by a variety of fruit trees. I've identified most of them, except this one http://www.flickr.com/photos/a...set-72157605498277681/ What is it?

Does the coffeemaker matter?

I've never been particularly choosy with coffee, since I usually just drink it at work. I'm considering buying one though, and was wondering if all coffee machines are the same, or if there are some differences, that produce better coffee? I'm not talking about anything fancy, just regular...

Car makes a sparking noise when turn the ignition

I'm not much of a car guy, so I don't know how to diagnose these problems. Basically, when I turn the key in the ignition, sometimes I hear what sounds like sparks/electricity crackling. Anyone have any ideas if/what the problem may be? It's a 2004 Honda Accord v4, with about 35k on it. Not...
