In my 10 years of weather blogging/forecasting and 20 years of of weather study, the incoming ‘Super Arctic Outbreak 2019’ will be the greatest of all cold waves, comfortably shivering past 2014 and even 2004 and is sure to be one of my greatest weather events I’ve watched unfold in my lifetime. I’ve forecasted and […]
A major cross country snow system during the past weekend produced record snow from St Louis to DC and this shall be followed by another three over the next 7 days. GFS snow forecast through the next 10 days. This stormy and increasingly colder pattern is the beginning to the much anticipated harsher 2nd half […]
Without a doubt, the Arctic Outbreak from December 23 through Jan 3 which continues is one of the greatest for the period on record from the Plains to East Coast. While countless daily records for cold maximums and minimums, many cities recorded their coldest Christmas since 2000, most recorded their coldest ever New Years Eve/Day […]
The coldest air compared to normal globally is currently over North America. First the snow then the cold. Updated snowfall totals from the lake effect snow event off Lakes Erie and Ontario during the last few days. pic.twitter.com/gS7AbC9txD — NWS Eastern Region (@NWSEastern) December 27, 2017 At least 24 daily record lows, 29 daily cold […]
It hit -41 in Minnesota yesterday and nearly reached that again in upstate New York this morning. Unofficial, but believable, as some parts of upstate NY have dipped as cold as -39˚ this AM, per @NWSBUFFALO HT @PeteWeatherBeat.

Blizzard conditions are currently affecting Atlantic Canada while the powerful offshore system begins to pull out of the Northeast US with Boston digging out from an additional 16. Check out these latest incredible scenes from New England and New Brunswick! Boston, MA Moncton, New Brunswick. In 3 weeks, Boston has seen more snow than all but TWO […]
The NWS has issued a Blizzard Warning for the Chicago Metro as the biggest storm of winter get’s cranking. It’s already a snowy scene across the region. This storm will be impressive as there’s a strong west to east baroclinic zone setting up with abundant Gulf moisture driving into some pretty cold air. High moisture amounts […]
I was taking today off but based on latest model snowfall print out’s, I had to throw up a few charts. It looks like we have a major snowstorm on the way for the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Especially the coastal Northeast and I-95. With models printing out 6-12, locally 12-24″ amounts even for the Big Cities, this […]
It remains THEORY until it physically happens but the latest GFS projections look even better than the previous runs. If correct, it would appear a sudden stratospheric warming event is ready to occur with a 180 degree turn from strong cold pool to strong warm pool over Greenland within 10 days.

Last winter was of course cold and snowy for most of the Lower 48. The thing is, it was predominantly fuelled by a warm NE Pacific but based on additional cold signals and recent ‘cold trend’ of the last 12 months or so, I ask the question, could we see a ‘super’ cold outbreak this winter? A severity of cold not seen since 1994? [s2If […]
