Spring 2015
It may be cold and snowy commencing the new work week and 2nd day of spring but this wild weather looks set to abate as we head deeper into the week. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] There’s northing spring-like about the stinging NW wind and frequent snow showers rattling in with blowing and drifting over higher road routes but […]
It’s a cold, blustery and for some, wintry open to spring 2015. We have a fairly brisk W wind going at present with origins extending all the way back to Arctic Canada so it’s a polar-maritime air mass in place. This is bringing fresh snowfall to higher elevations of Scotland, Northern Ireland and N England. […]
It’s been rather stormy well to our south in recent days. Check out these incredible images of 7 metre waves battering the North Coast of Spain near Santander yesterday. We have a very active, highly UP and DOWN temp regime through the next couple of days alone. Mild tonight as the warm front sweeps across […]
As forecast, modelling is firmly showing a ‘stormier’ pattern for Western Europe which means the return of severe gales, temperature rollercoaster’s and backside SNOW. Skinny ridges behind these lows will produce some pretty cold, frosty nights with the potential comeback of -10 nights over Highland snow fields. The early part of Sun night is seen to be one […]
2 weeks ago while the UK did a little shivering, so Greenland was balmy under a blocking high. Now that the blocking high is over Europe, so Greenland shivers beneath the strongest cold pool/trough of winter and the UK enjoys relative warmth. Temps took a dip to -62C or -80F this AM at Greenland’s Summit Camp […]
The CFSv2 continues to show the same thing, a cold end game to winter and start to spring over the Midwest and East. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] As for the nearer term, the ECMWF continues to see the more southern snow event next week. This weekend sees another significant snow dump in hard hit New England with […]
In the near term, i.e. this valentine’s weekend, we do have some wet and windy weather to talk about, however, high pressure looks to remain stubborn and stronger than initially thought to our southwest over the Azores next week. A strong positive over the Azores means an increasingly active Atlantic wave train gets directed towards Iceland and therefore we’re […]
Based on current global/hemispheric/Pacific-North America pattern, current SST temp profile with central Pacific El Nino, strong east QBO and cold AMO signal, I agree with the cold outlook to spring in both the CFSv2 and Jamstec. CFSv2 remains with the extreme cold February in the Northeast. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] It stays cold into March and April. Jamstec for the […]
