The slow movement of the second low tracking from Nevada into the Plains states will mean snows continue falling over the Colorado and Wyoming Rockies tonight and throughout tomorrow, adding to already large totals for some areas. As the system dips SE of Denver tonight, expect upslope snowfall to increase over the Laramie Range as well as down […]
The secondary low that has been closely monitored in recent days is now producing snowfall over the Rockies and now it’s looking like the focus of heaviest snowfall will be north of Denver due to the low tracking a little too close to Denver. This was highlighted back in yesterday’s post. In saying that, Denver may […]
We remember well the wild storm of last week with major snows, blizzard conditions, severe weather, heat and a massive temperature contrast along with 50-60 degree 24-hour temperature drop through the Rockies and Plains. At one point, temperatures were some 40-50 below normal in the West while in the East, they were 30 above normal in places. Thankfully the weather has settled down this […]
We had one heck of a wild week and incredibly, it most certainly appears that more of that comes back next week. Absolutely amazing for this late to see this amount of cold coming down out of Canada and with another strong Pacific system rolling through, you’ve got yet another major snow situation from the Colorado […]
Parts of the West are recovering after experiencing some exceptional April cold and believe it or not, this is not done despite the warm up taking place now. I know it’s frustrating, I hear ya, but this is one of those years where old man winter just does not want to make way for summer. […]
The warmup in the East was a reminder of what season we’re heading into but for some, it may have been a little warm, too fast as parts of the NYC Tri-State got up close to 90 while the DC-Baltimore area did reach 90 for the first time this year. Keep in mind that it […]
The storm barrelling across the heart of the United States right now is producing about as wild of as you’ll ever get at this time of year with mid-winter arctic air trailing behind a potent frontal system while summer-like air spreads out ahead. The system is drawing copious amounts of Gulf moisture and as this swings […]
The incredible April storm has already produced winds of up to 150 mph over Mammoth Mountain and through tonight may produce damaging easterly winds through Salt Lake City thanks to the tremendous pressure gradient between a 1036mb high over western Canada and a sub 985mb low over southern Colorado. While winds scream across the Wasatch and adjacent ranges tonight, heavy […]
It’s been a long, cold and snowy winter across much of the US but as temperatures begin to warm, this puts us all in the mood for warmer days, barbeques, the beach and vacation. As we’re getting deeper into spring, the role of rainfall becomes more and more important as distribution of precipitation can very much determine what kind […]
The US weather map is about to go wild early and mid week with a textbook spring storm setting up. A very impressure thermal gradient will set over over the Plains as the system matures over Texas, supporting temps 20-40 below normal over the Rockies/western high plains while it may get to nearly 30 above normal over the interior Mid-Atlantic with 80s as far north as Philadelphia, […]
