We are ending our coldest March in 51 years with some truely bitter nights and a push for not only the coldest night of March (-13C) but the coldest night in all of winter for the UK. It’s amazing to see this depth of cold so late in the year and of course we ‘spring forward’ to […]
While spring-like warmth takes a decent shot at the Upper Midwest Saturday with highs nearing 50 all the way to Minneapolis and the low 60s for Chicago, unfortunately this is going to be a brief tease as another shot of healthy arctic air dives south from Canada during Easter Sunday. Both Midwest cities will see 25 […]
As a cold surface high continues to build down over Scotland from Norway, this has shut down the persistent snow shower activity which has brought several fresh coverings all the way west to Glasgow. The high is also providing clearer skies and lighter winds, this promotes a slight rise in daytime temperatures but even colder nights than of […]
Scotland The pattern will remain settled right through this Easter weekend thanks to a cold high continuing to build down from Norway. This will provide plenty of sunshine and dry conditions by day and with lighter winds, temps will respond to 6 or 7C, cooler at 2 or 3C where snow remains on the ground. While daytime temps may be comfortable without the […]
With seemingly nonstop talk of cold, heavy snow and the fact that many areas are running colder than that of December, January and February, which amazingly were BELOW NORMAL, it’s no wonder this month is on track to be coldest since 62. Afterall, by enduring this tough past few weeks, I guess it’s somewhat of a consolation that we make the record […]
Scotland Well I could pretty much copy and paste yesterday’s forecast and put it into today’s because there is no real change in the pattern. Conditions remain much the same with a still very cold east flow, albeit it continues to ease and night skies are becoming clearer than of late. That means nights are likely […]
There is good and bad news over the coming 5-7 days, the good news is warmth returns to a cold Southeastern part of the country where highs have averaged 10-20 below normal persistently. Snow showers have been off and on across northern parts of Alabama, Georgia (incl Atlanta) with record or near record lows observed all […]
I thought it might be interesting to dig through some of the stats from back in January and February to see how they compare to this cold March so far over Europe and what I’ve found is quite incredible. Despite longer days, stronger sun and the fact it’s outwith meteorological winter, most European cities are seeing March as […]
Scotland The nagging easterly flow, albeit lighter will continue to bring in those snow showers to eastern aprts with some spreading west through the Central Lowlands. It will be a largely dry and settled night despite some snow showers around, lows widely down to -2C in towns and cities, nearer -10C where clear over the snowfields. Tomorrow will be a repeat of today with […]
Many folks living in the eastern third of the US will be asking, when will this persistent, nagging, lingering cold actually break and the calender match the pattern? Like I stated in my UK post earlier, until the very deep negative NAO/AO bounces back towards at least neutral, the cold and indeed stormy pattern will continue […]
