Although there’s snow falling across the Northern Plains at the moment, the weather map is relatively quiet at the moment across the US but that changes in a big way early next week as a major spring storm develops from an upper disturbance which swings into California from the Gulf of Alaska. All the key […]
Thought it would be a good time to look at the global SST’s and tie in some interesting anomalies which have appeared during the cold second half to winter across the Northern Hemisphere and also look at the deep tropics and potentials with the upcoming Atlantic Basin Hurricane Season. Firstly, here’s the current global SST’s as […]
There is most certainly light at the end of the tunnel in terms of the breakdown of this stubborn cold pattern which still dominates the Northern Plains down to the Mid-Atlantic. Through next week we will see a significant, 180-degree turnaround in temperature from 30s and 40s this week from North Dakota to West Virginia to […]
The website went down briefly this morning and when doing so, it unfortunately wiped out both yesterday’s UK and Ireland Regional Forecast and the post I did overnight on the US pattern through next week, so, here’s a fresh and updated post for you and additionally, a video to go with it… Folks, we have a 180-degree pattern flip coming […]
While April may bring one of the coldest openings in 20 years for parts of the Canadian Prairies and US, spring DOES appear to be on the horizon according to the models but it’s going to get colder before it get’s warmer.

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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
