The big storm is now leaving the playing field and as it does, cold winds on the backside are triggering lake effect snow showers and instability snow showers across the Northeast as seen from the below radar.

While one leaves, another arrives and this one looks to cause bigger problems than the last for the Plains as severe weather and flash flooding is highly likely.

There’s a lot of moisture going to be drawn north once the system crosses the Rockies and deepens.

For a second time in a matter of 6 months, the Southern Plains go from drought to deluge with many cities stretching from Colorado across to Missouri down to Texas has seen a top 5 or 10 wettest year to date.

Even up until yesterday, daily heat records have still been falling over Florida with 88 degrees in Orlando, 89 Naples and the 87 in Tallahassee was the 7th daily record high this month there.

A touch cooler today.

Major Snow Followed By Major Cold?

The next storm system is likely to drop an additional 1-2, locally 3ft of snow over the Sierra Nevada, Cascades, Wasatch, Rockies over the next few days and what follows looks very interesting with regards to Thanksgiving.

GFS surface through next week.

2m temp anomaly snap shots through the next 8 days.

Note the swath of heavy snow from NM, CO up through Kansas, Iowa, Wisconsin with a 1040 arctic high following in the wake.

See this afternoon’s video. Next update will be available Monday.
