 Super Typhoon Lupit with maximum sustained winds of 165 mph continues
to move to the northwest. Lupit is located 850 miles to the south-southeast
of Naha, Okinawa. Lupit will begin to slowly weaken over the next day or
two as it begins to turn more to the north and then the northeast. Lupit
will likely past to the east of Japan late Sunday into Monday.

 A strong storm system moving across eastern France and northern
Italy brought unsettled weather to the region Thursday. Even some
thunderstorms are expected to rumble across the Mediterranean. This
storm will move across Austria tonight and will spread rain across
much of central Europe Thursday night into Friday. It may be cold
enough on the backside of this storm system for some snow to fall
across parts of Germany.

 Unusually cold weather briefly gripped northern Scandinavia this
midweek. In Kvikkjokk, Sweden, the bitterly cold air moved in Monday
night dropping the temperature to minus-11 degrees by daybreak
Tuesday. After hovering near this mark much of the day Tuesday, the
temperature dipped 16 degrees below zero early Tuesday night before
rising overnight. An average day near the end of November here would
have a high of 19 degrees and a low of 7. Meantime, Tuesday dawned
with a temperature just above zero in Kautokeino, Norway. From here,
it grew increasingly cold with the temperature falling below minus-10
degrees by noon and more than 15 degrees below zero by late afternoon.
A low of minus-18 degrees was set early Wednesday morning. Kautokeino,
with only a little more than one hour of daylight, has a mean high of
15 degrees and a mean low of 4 at this time of the year.

 Baking heat has covered Paraguay and northern Argentina the past
few days. Daytime highs have been above 100 degrees early in the week
across western Paraguay and in the 90s elsewhere. Over the past day
or two cooler air has been pushing northward across Argentina and
this has triggered episodes of strong thunderstorms. The Paraguayan
city of San Estanislao was doused with nearly 3 inches in a short
time Tuesday night. San Juan Bautista picked up 1.65 inches of rain
from a heavy thunderstorm Monday, then had another 1.75 inches from a
storm Tuesday. Pilar also was hit twice by strong storms and in two
days time received 3.35 inches.
