We aren't that bad, but swing through Ohio and pick me up on the way. It would be great to see John.

According to the National Weather Service, the troposphere could dip below the summit of Mount Washington late Friday night or early Saturday morning, which would mean the observatory could be located in the stratosphere for a brief time. The stratosphere is the second layer of Earth's atmosphere.

Observers said they expect wind gusts topping 100 mph Friday night and Saturday morning, with wind chills as low as -110.
