Winter 2014/15
For some living in the snow barren Southeast of England, well your waking up to some snow this morning. I’ve seen snow pics from around the Luton area and there’s a chance at seeing more through the weekend. I pointed out in yesterday’s video that when you’ve snow on the ground and winds slacken/skies are clear, […]
We’re now in the midst of a true wild and exciting winter weather pattern. A pattern promising the frequent revisit of snow, fuelled by major cold. The blizzard is now hammering Atlantic Canada and was the 3rd system in a mere week to hit the Northeast. The next arrives tonight and is likely to snarl […]
Large swathes of Northern Ireland, Northern England and particularly Scotland are wakening to a covering of snow on this chilly Thursday morning. The models have been pretty spot on with the heavy snow showers expected. This is the first WIDESPREAD significant snow of winter. Today could see parts of Wales and Southern England get in […]
WARNING: DISRUPTION IS LIKELY ACROSS SCOTLAND, NORTHERN IRELAND AND NORTHERN ENGLAND TODAY AS SHOWERS TURN READILY TO SNOW, PARTICULARLY THIS EVENING! A cold front currently sweeping SE down the UK is drawing in the next cold air mass of arctic origin. As today wears on, the cold flow becomes stronger and with embedded ‘waves’ will come […]
For New York City, the projected 24-36 inches of snow were fantasy but to the north and east, it was a different story. An all out blizzard raged on Long Island as well as up into eastern Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts got hammered to heavy blinding snow driven by 50+mph winds as well as waves which […]
Thanks to the big storm winding up along the Northeast US coast, we may find ourselves in the coldest air mass of winter next week. There’s cross model agreement that the Atlantic high builds northward into Greenland in response to that storm. It essentially creates a ripple in the upper air pattern, forcing warmth north […]
Well I’ve showed you plenty of snow total maps and it’s now a case of sit back and let’s see what this storm is made of. Will it be a record breaker? Here’s what it’s up against in NYC. 18-22 inches I think is a good bet for Central Park but let’s not get too carried […]
The models are going back and fourth with snow totals. As of now, it appears the focus of heaviest snow is north and east of NYC. While NYC may fall short of it’s all-time record (26.9″ set in Feb 2006), Boston which topped 27″ with the Blizzard of 2003 may come close. Here’s a nice satellite view of […]
This week is undoubtedly the busiest of winter when combining the historic snowstorm potential on the US East Coast and heavy snow expected on this side also. Yes, the Eastern US storm will in-part be responsible for the late week UK cold and snow. There’s a ripple effect and nice teleconnection this week.

I was taking today off but based on latest model snowfall print out’s, I had to throw up a few charts. It looks like we have a major snowstorm on the way for the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Especially the coastal Northeast and I-95. With models printing out 6-12, locally 12-24″ amounts even for the Big Cities, this […]
