An impressive storm is now beginning to wind up over the Northeast and promises a miserable first half to the Memorial Day weekend. This afternoon has seen temperatures stuck in the 40s across a large part of Pennsylvania down into western Maryland and West Virginia, Snow was even reported over New York and Pennsylvania earlier. […]
During the day Thursday the cold front will finally push through the Big Cities of the East and head out to Sea, this will clean out the heat and humidity but unfortunately this also heralds a rather messy Memorial Day weekend across the region as a low is set to bring wet, breezy and chilly conditions.

The Gulf of Mexico is currently below normal while the tropical Atlantic from Leeward Islands to the Senegal […]

That doesn’t mean to say we won’t see cool and below normal temperatures return, in fact modeling suggests more troughiness over the East in coming weeks but the air which comes down from Canada won’t be ARCTIC. The negative NAO supports more […]
