The cold front which originally brought flooding rains and storms a couple of morning’s ago to the DC to New York corridor is now a stalled feature over the Southeast. This feature is triggering and will continue to trigger thunderstorms and heavy rains. Rain that is falling on already saturated ground of course and there appears to be little […]
After a day of heavy, flooding, thundery rains which rattled through the New York to Washington corridor during Tuesday morning and a second batch this evening with even tornado threats around the Philadelphia area, the front clears out. Wednesday all the way through the rest of this week and the upcoming weekend looks stunning with a LOT […]
While it’s cool now across the Midwest and East, change is on the way as a Canadian high drops into the Southeast this week and it looks like we eventually see warming southwest winds develop on the backside of the high, allowing the Northeast to warm up considerably next week on into the following week. The upper pattern is […]
I’m seeing a few interesting comments surfacing on Facebook about the increase in arctic and northern hemisphere sea ice extent compared to recent years which they claim may lead to little or no blocking and a mild winter for Europe and I guess they mean North America too.

It’s been a summer that’s been plain HOT and unusually so throughout Alaska with record breaking heat kicking off in style back in mid June when parts of the Last Frontier warmed into the UPPER 90s. The town of Talkeetna smashed it’s all-time record high on June 17 with a temperature of 96°. Unofficially the temperature hit 98° in one place which if was […]
I did a video Tuesday night which looked at the upcoming US fall and winter. Here are the charts which were looked at. Remember, I believe that the warmth we’ve seen this summer over more northern areas which have produced a lot of warm waters across the North this year, could well lead to strong […]
We’re seeing some big time mesoscale convective complexes of MCS’s roam the nations midsection these past few nights and tonight’s no different. Missouri in particular is getting hammered by flooding rains and it’s all to do with the setup. The atmosphere has ultimately laid down tracks in which storms fire and run along. The low level […]
