The setup was perfect with strong upper ridging and offshore flow for maximum heating throughout the LA Basin last week. At UCLA in the Westwood district of Los Angeles it hit 111 degrees surpassing it’s previous all-time record of 109 set back in September 1939. Downtown LA topped 108 degrees, failing to reach the all-time […]

3 weeks of unusually settled weather came to an abrupt this week thanks to the arrival of an unusual summer wind storm. Thanks to an increase in temperature gradient over North America, our sleepy trans Atlantic jet stream awoke and spawned an unusually deep Atlantic low and may have reached it’s peak as it passed […]
A powerhouse 260 mph jet stream has driven bitterly cold Canadian/Greenland air across the North Atlantic and over Ireland and the UK bringing frequent blustery snow showers through today.
