Snow cover across the Lower 48 has shrunk to 15% but despite a now lack of snow cover, it’s darn cold, historic cold for the time of year with records lows witnessed from central and eastern Canada all the way to the Gulf Coast in recent mornings. Many saw their coldest readings for so late with Land […]
It seems like forever that cold and record cold at that, has been mentioned. However, today is yet another and impressive it was. Lows fell to -7F at Land O’Lakes, WI. Widespread low teens along with single digits in pockets throughout the Dakotas and N Minnesota. It dropped to 18 at Minneapolis, tying a record for the […]
The Jamstec all along has had a warm spring over much of North America and for the first time, the CFSv2 actually shows warmer than average temps in the Eastern US. Here’s the Jamstec for the March through May period. New CFSv2 for May. TOP IMAGE: Credit: WeatherBug SEE TODAY’S VIDEO! [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] The weeklies have […]
A text book spring storm is winding upright now over the Plains and is drawing on all resources from summer-like warmth and tropical humidity to arctic cold. The next 24 to 36 hours will see upper 80s to low 90s reach Oklahoma while western Kansas struggles to get out of the low 40s. After enjoying 70s and 80s just yesterday, Denver, Colorado will be stuck in […]
Before I getting into the theme for tonight’s post, I wanted to show you the HUGE snow cover remaining across Canada. Some 90% of Canada’s area remains covered on April 10. That would actually be impressive had it been mid-March never mind a month later. Sure there’s only 8% of the US now white but […]
We have quite the upcoming 7 days of weather with the first real burst of spring for the East Coast while a dagger of cold drives down the Plains and eventually spreads east, killing the hopes and dreams that winter was done. Well, I say winter, what I really mean is, that chilly weather was done for […]
Spring has definitely sprung over the West and temporarily in the Plains. I say temporarily because we’re going to see the Dakotas go from 70s, even 80s of today, back to 30s and 40s by the weekend and yes, there will be snow to speak of. As a major, unseasonable cold shot dives down the […]
The warmth is building as forecast throughout the West. Check out these current temps. It’s currently 101 in Death Valley which I believe is the first 100 of the year across the US. The warmth spreads east over the next 2-3 days but as you would expect, in modified fashion. Wed Thu [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Enjoy […]
Finally and for the first time this year, we’re talking real heat over the West and particularly the Desert. As stated for a few days now, we have a 976dm ridge, strongest yet, building all the way north to Oregon and Idaho with the 982 height line pushing as far north as Las Vegas. As a result, the first […]
It is well known that the sun is the greatest driver of earth’s temperature and in recent years, the sun has become weaker and weaker. As a result, earth’s temperature has been, on the grand scale of things, trending cooler. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] It’s said that we have not seen global warming in 20 years, probably as […]
