Big Warm-Up On The Way!

Despite the next system which follows, old man winter fights a loosing battle to much warmer, Pacific air next week. Despite a cold start in the Northeast, a storm system diving southeast from the Gulf of Alaska into the PNW will send a trough into the West and therefore sends a RIDGE into the East introducing WARMER air. How warm? I suspect 40s Chicago, Detroit, possibly 60s DC, 50s Philly to Boston.

Next week’s big warm up is echoed well into the latest CFSv2 4 week temps. Note the cool down week 3 and 4 but looks like a moderate, seasonable chill, nothing extreme!
