Re: Steve Gregory's Wunderground blog

The low pressure is at the surface.... but, the eye temperature aloft is warmer... so maybe that's why the weather is fair. However, that would mean the air is descending, and goes against everything I understand about low presure centers, which make talll heavy air columns and thus precipitation. I always thought since the eye was the point around where the winds rotated, that was why the weather was calmest.

I'm thinking there's validity in both of our points... maybe Clark can fill in the gap?
