The turn has begun after parts of the central Bahamas was ravaged by nearly 2ft of rain and pounded by tropical storm force winds for 3 straight days and hurricane-force winds for 1.5 days. At it’s peak, Joaquin’s wind gusts roared at between 125-130 mph winds over the parts of the multi-island paradise. Areas are inevitably devastated though pictures are slow to come […]

Here’s a quick glance at the 500mb height and surface temperature anomalies for September 2015 across Europe. Is this a setup which will be mirrored this winter? Note the difference in upper heights and temps from the June-August period with strongest heights/warmest temps across the South. Warming SST’s north of the UK is taking the mean ridge […]

Within 150-200 miles of the Bahamas, Joaquin went from a strong 70 mph Tropical Storm to a Category 4 monster generating sustained winds of up to 130 mph as it spins directly over this beautiful island chain. The devastating aspect is twofold, 1) it’s a large and extremely powerful system but 2) the slow movement means that the Bahamas […]

It was another stunning day of cloud free skies. This powerful under ridge with surface pressure near 1040mb is completely supressing the atmosphere’s ability to produce clouds. This was the view from space and notice cloud and sea fog is restricted to the West Coast. UK view. This was my view along the shores of […]

In my previous post less than 24 hours ago, Joaquin wasn’t yet declared a hurricane but as of this writing it’s become a major, Category 3 storm with winds of 120 mph and pressure now said to be below 940mb. The latest recon flight this morning measured pressure at 938mb. The hurricane is currently lashing the […]
It’s a tail of two halves for Western Europe these days, all thanks to the positioning of high pressure. As stated previous, when you’ve a northerly positioned high, it’s often unsettled underneath and when it’s unsettled across the north like it will be next week, it’s typically more settled underneath. Yesterday infrared satellite view shows […]
