Got outdoor plans for this weekend? BBQ perhaps? Go on… why not, cause it’s going to look and feel like summer, not autumn! It was last weekend I started alluded to the fact that beyond the first half off this week, the second half is going to be picture of building sun, sand, sea and warmth once the Icelandic […]
There is still some shear and dry air currently affecting this storm and yes, it’s the same olf story of the deepest area of convection is displaced to the south and east of the centre. I have no change with Leslie and right now, due to the fact it’s barely moving at only 3 mph, […]
Over the next 24-36 hours we’re are going to see the little blip in the road I alluded to a few days ago in the post which stated the South of England should be mostly dry, sunny and warm for the next 10 days. After tomorrow I could see mostly sunny skies, no rain and above normal temps through at […]
A very steep pressure field is setting up over the Atlantic between deepening Icelandic low and strong Azores high. Bteween the expected bombing out at 965mb tomorrow am and the 1030 ridge, very strong upper level winds are likely to mix down the the surface thanks to alignment with good vertically ‘stacked’ winds from jet stream level […]
While the Southern Plains are back in the oven following a long, hot, dry summer, thankfully we’re now into September and officially meteorological fall. That of course means any heat from now on will come and go quickly with shortening days and lengthening nights. High pressure systems begin to weaken and soon they will begin start migration […]
While Isaac may seen as though it’s decaying fast and there’s going to be nothing left within the next 36 hours, think again! The tropical moisture still holding on with the circulation that was once Isaac will spread east into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Monday through Wednesday and particularly Tuesday and Wednesday this moisture will merge with a cold […]
Now that meteorological summer has officially ended, The Weather Network have come up with some figures which look back at what kind of summer it’s been over Canada. To sum it up in two words, it’s been WARM & DRY! New Brunswick, Novia Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland are amoungst the majority of Canada which […]
It’s been a winter which will likely become known as one of the worst in many years from Alice Springs to the East Coast. Persistent high pressure systems and southerly air flows supported frequent spells of ‘worst cold nights’ in 20, 30, 40, 50+ years from southern Queensland all the way to Tasmania. We even saw record cold […]
For several days now the ECMWF, GFS and other models have been persistent in jumping on the idea of a good spell of weather for pretty much all of the UK from Wednesday onwards. Even over Northern Ireland and across to Scotland where we naturally have fronts swinging through or nearby enough to provide cloudy, cool and […]
Tropical Storm Leslie is being closely watched by the US East Coast residents, especially after what we’ve seen with Hurricane Isaac. There remains a lot of uncertaintly with Leslie , same old story right? but as of now, I do believe there is probably no more than a 30% chance that Leslie will impact the US. […]
