Seasonal Forecasts
It’s been a long and hot summer for Salt Lake and it’s not yet August! It’s looking like summer 2016 will go down as one to remember, especially for night time warmth! 104 degrees at the airport yesterday made for the hottest day of 2016 so far and 3rd straight 100. SLC has a ways to go to challenge the […]
An upper trough spinning in place directly north of Scotland will send not one but two rain bearing lows through the central/southern swath of the British Isles today and tomorrow reinforcing the disappointing summer of 2016 for many. To the south of these lows it’s relatively warm and muggy but cool, breezy and showery to the north. In the […]
Despite the heat of late in the Northern Plains, temperatures this month have been running near normal and with cooler weather now pushing down from Canada, July is likely to stay near normal if not slightly below. However, the west of Texas extending into New Mexico with the bulls eye reaching south-central Colorado, it’s been […]
Never ending sunshine by Philip Eden Before 1976 came along with its exceptional heatwaves and unprecedented drought, the benchmark summer against which subsequent seasons were compared was that of 1959. With nothing remotely approaching a good summer during the 1960s and early-1970s, those of us growing up at the time wondered whether we would ever […]
It’s hot, hazy and humid throughout the Eastern two thirds this afternoon with Washington DC topping it’s first 100 degree day since 2012. It’s a steamy one for the Democratic Convention. As well as the heat it’s also humid creating steamy HI’s. Strong storms sweep through the Northeast tonight but brings little relief. Plenty more […]
Another weekend and another trip to the mountains! It’s Saturday, July 16, 2016 01.00am, not quite the journey by road we faced with Liatach or Conival, Ben More Assynt but what we lost in road miles we most certainly gained on foot with this trip. I met up with my good friend Petr in Cumbernauld at the unearthly hour […]
If your in the Southeast of England, your summer is improving following a poor June with drier, brighter and warmer likely holding through the next 10 days give or take some shower activity here and there. However northern England and particularly Northern Ireland and Scotland I’m afraid sees little change to end July and begin August. The key […]
The last two weeks has seen major league summer heat expand over the Lower 48 and this week has been a hot one on the Plains as well as across the South. The heat is trimmed on the Plains but holds in the East thanks to an eastward moving low crossing southern Canada next 5 days. […]
Associated Press Published: July 23, 2016 At least 154 people have died and 124 are left missing in northern China due to some of the region’s worst flooding in years, officials said Saturday. The deluge was triggered by torrential rain that led to landslides and destroyed homes across the country. A majority of the fatalities […]
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] High solar, warm ocean and westerly QBO favours wet, windy and often stormy neutral to +NAO winters for Western Europe. Since the intense and persistent cold of late winter 2008, 2009 and 2010, it’s turned warmer and wetter, largely thanks to the rise in solar cycle 24 off the minimum towards maximum. Britain’s coldest winters tend to coincide with […]
