We have a complex early winter (Halloween) storm situation developing for the Northeast with typical big variations depending on which model you look at. It will be cold this weekend but that’s just part of the story as we’re also talking about snow and a lot of upper energy coming out of Canada which will deepen the trough […]

We have a significant early November cold blast on the way this weekend but not before records for HEAT are threatened… Yep, quite the temperature rollercoaster this week with 80s to near 90 Mon, Tue to a potential freeze Sat, Sun morning as far south as Tennessee. In recent posts I’ve showed you the surface/mid and upper […]

Hope you had a chance to watch last night’s video regarding my latest US winter thoughts. Based on the type of global pattern, solar, east QBO, weak nino (coming on), global sst profile etc… This makes sense. So does this. But this DOESN’T. The CFSv2 contradicts it’s own winter SST forecast. Which is contradicted by it’s upper height anomalies. You shouldn’t see […]

The QPF reaches the top of the precipitation scale over the Pacific Northwest next 10 days and by that I mean there’s a large area of 9+ inches. Thanks to a series of storms blowing in from the Pacific. This means A LOT of snow in the mountains, especially up in British Columbia. With the […]

It’s a chilly night ahead for the Northeast after seeing the first snow of the season in the mountains of WV. Here’s what Snowshoe, WV woke to this morning! Mon AM forecasted lows. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Models still show next week’s Nor’easter! Model still has some snow in the higher elevations of the Northeast However it’s significantly toned […]

To expand a little on last night’s brief post, it looks as though we have a decent Nor’easter set to impact the Northeast late next week. The first which may bring some snow to the high elevations of Pennsylvania and New England but before we get there, a chilly high settling into the region late weekend […]

For those of you living in the US wishing for some weather, here’s what the models are sniffing out next week. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Interesting little Nor’easter for East while West Coast gets hit by wind, rain and mountain snow, even down into central CA. Plentiful rainfall next 7 days for both Northwest and Northeast as well […]

It was a rough day yesterday throughout the Mississippi Valley with flooding rains and severe weather, all thanks to the big fall storm system with warm and cold, dry and moist air coming together. Here was the SPC storm reports from yesterday. Note the 14 tornadoes. Today’s severe weather risk slides east today. The East Coast can expect some […]

We have two robust fall storm systems attacking or set to attack the Lower 48. Check out these juicy 7 day totals. Especially the 12.5″ of liquid expected over S British Columbia which is sure to fall as big snows in the mountains. What’s sure to kick start this fairly wet upcoming 7 day period is the robust system we […]
