There’s no getting away from this. I didn’t see it coming this early. We’re potentially looking at the deepest negative AO/NAO for November since 2010 and this is rather ominous for so early. Low solar could be triggering this early blocking and could be an indicator of the level of winter ahead. A 2009-10 repeat […]
The November 2018 cold wave will be remembered for one of the coldest start’s to November on record in some Midwest cities while for some southern cities where it’s still typically in the 70s at this time of year, they witnessed their earliest snow on record.

November is no stranger to cold, you expect it to turn cold and snowy, especially the further north you are and the further into the month you go.

A major November cold outbreak is descending over the US as of this writing with snow breaking out as the polar front sweeps south. https://twitter.com/news8michelle/status/1059158399475216384 https://twitter.com/WCCOShaffer/status/1059931823923441666 My November outlook was warm and so that looks to be a bust given the intensity, coverage and duration of this early season arctic outbreak.
