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 […]
A rather vigorous storm system which produced an impressive and even record breaking snow across the Midwest with St Louis, MO getting buried by 12.4 inches of the white stuff, breaking the 1912 record of 12.1″. In Lincoln, IL, they obliterated a record of 4″ dating back to 1947 with an impressive 10.8″ during Sunday according to AccuWeather. […]
Through the course of tonight and into Saturday while the upper low sweeps down from the northwest, the surface low swings east, just south of Denver out into the Southern Plains. For you folks in Metro Denver I think 4-8 inches is a good bet from this with higher amounts north and east of the metro over the […]
Firstly, the cold! Noticed it’s cold out? Certainly if you live basically anywhere from Denver to Atlantic City, your running comfortably or uncomfortably below normal and tonight will be a heck of a cold night, especially from North Dakota to North Georgia. It hit 18 below zero this morning up in Rudby, ND, that’s pretty […]
It has been quite the winter for New England and the latest winter storm in HAMMERING New Hampshire and Maine tonight while it’s winding down further west but for you good folks of Maine, it ain’t over till it’s over and I’m not talking about winter, I’m talking about this storm. Just when you think the snows are […]
The Arctic Oscillation is entering the same negative territory as the record depths seen back in 2009-10 and both the UK and USA know what kinda winter that was. The persistence in negative since early February explain why we’ve seen a much colder and snowier second half to winter but it’s the sharp tanking which is […]
As written about late last week, we have yet another complex winter storm situation setting up Northeast with not one but two systems to contend with. While the front running or lead storm departs the Mississippi Valley and heads towards New Jersey, it’s as this moisture (fed north from the Gulf) collides with southbound cold, arctic air across the […]
It’s going to be a busy next 7 days with winter continuing to shake off any attempt at spring warmth, certainly across the North and East anyway. Through tonight we’ve got another clipper sliding NW to SE through Minnesota, this will produce the heaviest snows tonight across Minneapolis but like most clippers, moisture is limited with no Gulf […]
As we progress towards the weekend, yet another cold shot drops into the East and with the cooldown comes a clipper which should be a rain-snow mix for both Minneapolis and Chicago, the best chance of a few inches will be north of these areas over the next 48 hours. Another system will come out of […]
We need the current pattern is very favourable for plenty more wild endgame to winter weather but I thought I would show you what’s next. Modelling has been persistent is bringing a low across the Northern Tier, producing a solid 4-8, locally 12 inch snow through the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin and northern Michigan but this […]
