Autumn 2017
Torrential rains associated with a cut off low over the central Med Sea has produced devastating flash floods to parts of Greece and with this very feature expected to become a warm core medicane in the same area late this week, more devastating floods is expected. The setup is such that a low to mid level cut off low is strengthening […]
No it’s not something from the chemist but a consolidating storm system which forms over the Mediterranean and takes on some tropical characteristics including a warm core and a clear eye. The last medicane we had was back last Halloween. The models have showed a medicane forming late this week for some time. Small chance […]
With Ben Macdui, Braeriach, Aonach Mor, Carn Mor Dearg, Ben Nevis and another 10 munros including the UK’s top 6 highest ticked off the list last year, 2017 had a lot to live up to. It’s certainly been a great year for me in the Highlands . Like 2016, another 15 summits were achieved including another 3 in beautiful Torridon in April and May, Ben […]
The all important and busy Thanksgiving holiday is fast approaching and it’s looking very interesting. The models are consistent and bringing some major league arctic air into the Midwest and East along with the potential of a significant snow event. The below GFS ensemble shows the build-up of heights into Greenland and the western US […]
As the next frontal system pushed into the cold air, parts of lower elevation Highland Scotland woke to the first blanket of fresh snow. The first appreciable snow fell in places such as Aviemore.

Impressive video of Tom Padham, a research scientist who stepped out into -2F air, 105 mph winds and wind chill of -40C/F on the summit of Mount Washington, NH back on Friday. This was Tom and another colleague back last May. He says he’s been in stronger winds and dealt with 133 mph winds twice. FEATURED IMAGE CREDIT: Farmers Almanac
Simon Cardy today shared the latest run of the MO model for mean sea level pressure January through March and it screams a mild, Atlantic driven winter with stronger than normal Azores high and Icelandic low which would strengthen a predominantly zonal jet stream into the UK and W Europe. 500mb anomaly and 2 metre temp also mirrors the […]
The impressive early season arctic outbreak which started off in Montana has now smashed countless records across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic for a 2nd straight day. https://twitter.com/WeatherBug/status/929327491289878528 https://twitter.com/WeatherNut27/status/929307667989979136 https://twitter.com/wxjerdman/status/929293584498642945 https://twitter.com/mikeseidel/status/929399935925149697 https://twitter.com/gdimeweather/status/929308576996356096 https://twitter.com/MelissaNordWx/status/929339533640060928 https://twitter.com/phillywx/status/929410319658770432 https://twitter.com/MWObs/status/929324716313206784 https://twitter.com/MWObs/status/929069864752435200 https://twitter.com/TomNiziol/status/929116839375986688 https://twitter.com/twcMariaLaRosa/status/929317785519509504 https://twitter.com/nycWeatherGuy/status/929389675994861570 https://twitter.com/NWSStateCollege/status/929323812054855680 FEATURED IMAGE CREDIT: Tammie Souza WeatherVerified account @TammieSouza
MANY impressive records dating back some 40 or more years ago have been tied or smashed this week from Montana back at the beginning of the week to the Great Lakes as we end the week and it’s now the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic’s turn to shiver! Recent years has seen heat records fall by as much as 10 to 12 degrees […]
With an easterly QBO and consistent day by day model support, it’s looking increasingly likely that a -NAO with classic Greenland block shall setup later next week on into the following week bringing a cold final 10 days to November here in Western Europe as well as the Eastern US/Canada. This is just PERFECT, let’s hope it […]
