It’s going to be a downright miserable next several days as easterly gales persist, causing coastal flooding both by wave, wind and heavy […]

We’re stuck in a chilly, showery NW flow here across the UK but this setup is soon to change come the weekend as heights builds in from the Atlantic.

US Pattern Opens Door To Tropical Threat, Tranquility Elsewhere

The US Gulf and Atlantic coast will have an open door policy next 15 days to tropical threats. While the tropics are already stirring with Ida spinning well out to sea and mischief just off the East Coast, the northward building of a very strong and sprawling high pressure into Canada forces heights to lower underneath and out over 85-90 degree […]

An autumnal trough currently over Northwest Europe brought an interesting contrast this morning across Spain in particular with cooler than normal extending from Scotland down through France into northern/central Spain. Clear sky and light winds meant a chilly night with mist, fog and patchy frost but Spain is separated by two very different air masses.

El Nino’s Westward Shift May Present 3rd Bad Winter For Midwest, East

Still a lot of if’s and buts but for Midwesterners, Easterners seeking another winter worth talking about in 2015-16, you may have your wish as current modelling is swaying more towards another colder but stormy outlook the further south and east you go across the Lower 48 while it’s looking disastrous for the winter sports industry of the Pacific Northwest.

While a trough digs into the Eastern US now we have heights building once again over the Plains and this forces a trough split into the new work week with a piece lifting up into the Maritimes and Atlantic while the other drops into the Southeast and it’s the piece left behind that bares watching.
