Scotland After a bright but cold day, temperatures are dipping but as the temperatures dip back to freezing, cloud is pushing in from the west and eventually winds will pick up this evening and overnight. Lows dip initially to between -1 and +1C, colder the further east you are but by midnight, it should be up […]
Last week’s Midwest and Eastern cold blast hit while both the NAO and AO was strongly positive but given that those indexes are heading towards neutral and negative, it’s plausible to believe what both the GFS and ECMWF are showing for the US late this week into next. While the last blast was a chilly one, that would […]
A frontal system is progressing south over the UK, pushing out the mild and pulling in the coldest air mass of the season so far. Scotland turned very bright and sunny this afternoon as cold air flows south. Here’s a late afternoon view from space showing the cold NW flow progressing south over Scotland, blowing in from a […]
We have a dangerous severe weather situation unfolding this afternoon and tonight over the Ohio Valley as a deepening surface low pushes northeast over the Great Lakes with warm, moist air flowing up from the Gulf as well as the Atlantic while cold, arctic air flows out of the northwest, on the backside of the low. A strong 70kt low […]
Today a frontal system will bring rain to parts of Ireland, England, Wales and Southwest Scotland but it’s another front edging into NW Scotland which is the door to the coldest air of the season. As high pressure builds north over the Atlantic, so that front will push south during tomorrow, pulling the first arctic […]
When looking at the modelling and projected indexes (trending -NAO/AO/neut PNA), the arctic air looks to hold strong over the snowfields of Canada with lobes dropping into the Lower 48 next 2 weeks. Here’s the North America snow cover difference between this time last year and now. Note most of Canada is white and this will help […]
Scotland It’s a largely cloudy night with drizzle, perhaps some light and patchy rain and it stays on the mild side at 6-8C, perhaps colder in the East with clearer skies where a frost is possible. Saturday looks much like today and tonight with a lot of cloud cover, light and patchy rain, particularly in […]

Make the most of this weekend’s push of milder air from the southwest ahead of the front because temperatures will crash from 11 or 12C over Scotland down to just 2 or 3C by Wednesday as the first blast from the arctic drops south. Take a look at the GFS projected temperatures mid afternoon Saturday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and look […]
