As we kiss goodbye to the current system bringing a wet, windy and chilly night across Northern Ireland, parts of Scotland and Northern England, our eyes shift to the next system which will work into the Southeast of England late Sunday into Monday, this will bring a period of heavy rain to the Southeast while […]
It has been a really poor past 48 hours for June across many parts of the UK as another Atlantic low sweeps wind, rain and cold across the country. It has felt and even looked more like October rather than mid-June with my high here yesterday topping no higher than 48F (9C). The biting east wind made it feel worse. While much […]
The ECMWF has plenty of summer heat across much of the country through next week with a return to 90s for the Mid-Atlantic by Monday. While the strong and expansive west-east ridge keeps things warm, the model also shows a continuation of the rather active Pacific track storm with more strong low dropping out of the Gulf […]

This amazing ‘sandstorm’ which was probably a nightmare if you were on the beach here was created by what appeared to be a thunderstorm offshore of Barcelona. According to AccuWeather, winds started out from a southwesterly direction with gusts of 17 mph before turning […]
While some glorious weather has invaded the Great Lakes and Midwest from Canada with dry air, low humidity and abundant sunshine, this allows the perfect combination of warm, very comfortable 70-degree days accompanied by cool, crisp nights in the 40s with even frost in the UP of Michigan. As we progress towards the later part of this week, this cool, Canadian […]
