Seasonal Forecasts
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Well the high is came delivering warm, sunny weather virtually UK-wide. Temperature wise I was right to back off for Ebgland and Wales but as for Scotland, well the numbers I had from nearly a week ago, I should have left along given Glasgow hit 25C and Kinlochewe made the UK warm spot […]
It’s 3.30am and hitting the road to Fort William to climb Carn Mor Dearg and Ben Nevis. No write-up today but do check out this morning’s video. On two separate occasions lately I set days aside to climb Ben Nevis but the weather didn’t play ball but as for today? Well hopefully it’s not too warm and […]
When I had a look at the latest sea surface temperature anomalies yesterday I got a surprise to see just how much the waters surrounding Scotland in particular had cooled to between 2-4C BELOW NORMAL. At the beginning of the month it was above normal. Even more so when the 2-3, even 4C drop came within […]
The Eastern heat wave and Southern Rainstorm continues but both will weaken into the new working week. Though the air temperature was just as toasty today as the past few from from Richmond to Bangor, dew points were less and therefore heat indexes instead of being 110-115, locally 115-120, it felt more like 100-105. As for the Louisiana flood situation, as […]
Well that brief warm-up I’ve been harping on about for the past week may still be on the table but the real heat looks to remain on the other side of the channel. Several days ago I myself made mention of a potential 34C, not it looks as though we may be lucky to hit 27 or 28C! […]
What can I say folks, the heat, humidity, heat indexes and rainfall is nothing short of impressive and there is little written requirement as I think the below photos and graphics say it all. Unbearable 4pm air temp/dew point combos. DC tops record 101F with a heat index of 114F. Over 31 inches of rain within 5 days? [s2If […]
As we enter the second half of August, I am becoming more and more optimistic of a more settled, high pressure dominated pattern. Up until now we’ve had spells of high pressure but within a low pressure dominated pattern, more so for Scotland and Northern Ireland, less so England and Wales but it looks as though we go the […]
The combination of a record warm ocean stronger-than-normal Bermuda high and stalled lows and associated fronts we have heat wave conditions within one of the wettest atmosphere’s you’ll see. An historic day-after-day deluge continues over Louisiana while a hot, steamy, sticky, suffocating blanket covers the Ohio Valley and East Coast raising heat indexes to dangerous levels. A record warm ocean maximises amount of available water within […]
It’s yet another wet, windy, chilly day here across central Scotland but as your well aware by now, there is better weather on the way, well could it be any worse? As of this writing we not only have a very distinct NW-SE weather and temperature contrast depending upon what side of the front your on but the Scottish mountains are […]
Thought I would touch on just how steamy the air is from west Kansas to Delaware and from Louisiana to the UP of Michigan currently. Chicago Just Got Its First Tornado in Almost 10 Years ARTICLE FROM WEATHER.COM A weak tornado called a landspout was seen over Chicago on Tuesday. This is the first tornado […]
