Yet another monster low has formed and can bee seen spinning just south of Alaska, set to bring yet another round of powerful, potentially damaging winds onshore over South-Central Alaska. The GFS shows pressure falling all the way into the mid-950s in mb, incredible. I wonder if this depth is record challenging for September? The centre of this monster is expected to strike […]
The pattern is now undergoing major changes with the return of a more positive NAO/AO with modeling showing the flattening out of the jet which will push the cold air back up into Canada and allow maritime air to flood the Lower 48 for the most part. This will however send in storms as we progress […]
Jelawat has done what Sanba did recently, rapidly intensified, nearly doubling in strength within just 12 hours becoming a SUPER Typhoon over the warm waters of the Philippine Sea. Impress even more is the fact the the second straight super typhoon. This time around, 160 mph Super Typhoon Jelawat will continue it’s current northwesterly path but then will […]
The system hammering the British Isles over the past 48 hours is no ordinary one for September bringing major flooding across large swathes of Northern England crippling rail and road transport between Scotland and England combined with near hurricane-force winds which have torn down numerous trees, even powerlines up and down the east coast of Scotland with howlling 70 mph onshore […]
Computer models show now-strong Hurricane Miriam taking a path which brings it ashore along the central Baja coast late this week. What’s significant is not so much the storm hitting this part of the world but the potential rainfall it could bring to the Northwest of Mexico/Southwest US as well as the Southern Plains. This […]
Since early Sunday, wind and rain has been battering Southern areas of Britain and today the strengthening winds and torrential rains have been slowly spreading north with the low which continues to deepen with a web of tightly wound isobars covering the British Isles. While rains ease in the South through tonight, winds will increase out of the northwest […]
We’re now entering deeper into autumn with winter fast approaching. October is pushing ever closer and this transitionary month can be a critical telltale month as to what we may expect later down the road. It was Joe Bastardi a few years back who said to me that often (not always), where the wettest weather and trough sets up […]
A cold upper low passing over the Great Lakes Friday night brought the first snows to parts of northern Minnesota and Wisconsin with several reports of a trace to as much as 1-2 inches which of course melted quickly due to warm ground. Following a cool day Saturday, clear skies, light winds became established thanks to a lobe of colder air coming down […]
The system which has been well advertised on here for the past 5 days is now impacting southern Britain. Rains are coming down hard across large swathes of South and Mid Wales and across all of southern England and it will continue throughout the while this canopy of heavy, persistent and at times torrential rain will continue advancing north up through the […]
A very stormy spell of weather is on it’s way to ALL areas of the UK as well as Ireland over the next 4 days as models converge and remain persistent in bringing up a deepening low from the Bay of Biscay. This feature is a system which developed, was spawn from once-Tropical Storm Nadine. Both […]
