Here’s the Jamstec for the March through May period.

The weeklies have a darn cold next 10 days but strong warming sweeps east week 3-4.

‘Reactive’ warming in response to the change is season appears to finally be on the way but I use the word, reactive because the heart of summer or the June through August period still looks average to below average across much of the United States.

Before we get anywhere near to the apparent warmth of late month, we are dealing with yet more major cold and snow.

In fact the same areas which enjoyed summer-like 80s, are dealing with a major fall in temperature with wind and snow making for mid-winter conditions tonight.

While it remained in the 30s into this afternoon all the way down to North Texas, the thermometer was approaching 80 in Burlington, Vermont.

The cold looks to push pretty far south and east tomorrow night and Wednesday night with 20s reaching perhaps as far south as central Alabama and points south of Atlanta.

Another lobe of cold dives into the N Plains as a second system spreads east over the Plains, bringing Denver and the Rockies a second shot at snow within just a few days.
