United States of America

There has been plenty of warm air over the Eastern Seaboard this past weekend and more records are likely to fall over the Southeast today through Wednesday but a sharp change comes today for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast as the boundary which brought snow, ice, tornadoes, damaging winds and flooding rains across the nations mid-section, east today. The mountains of Virginia, […]

The NWS has declared this morning as the coldest in Los Angeles in 22 years. The current temperature is all the way down to 35 degrees and may continue to fall a further few degrees over the next couple of hours. Brutal cold covers a large chunk of the country. Check out these current readings […]

While it’s mild if not warm right now over the East, this won’t last and I have been banging home this point for 10 days now. The warmth was always looking impressive but what will follow is likely to be equally as impressive. The next couple of days for me will remain warm with highs in the upper 70s to […]

Good morning to you from beautiful Savannah, GA on a comfortably cool morning. Days are unusually warm down here with a high yesterday right around 80 degrees here. It was a record breaking 76 degrees up in Atlanta well to my north. While slightly cooler but well above average still in Atlanta, today shall be equally […]

I’m currently in Savannah, GA and enjoying some remarkable January warmth. How warm? 78-degrees and tomorrow I head to Hilton Head, SC where it should be equally as warm. Very unusual for this level of warmth at this time of year but that’s what happens when you’ve a powerful upper ridge and southwest flow. Highs should reach […]

After a brief respite from the cold over the Rockies, it’s returning big time now from California east to the Plains with a major trough returning to the West. A major storm, named Gandolf is now developing and is set to bring a night of heavy snow from the Four Corners up through Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana into North Dakota. Very […]

This weekend will be exceptionally mild, even warm for mid-January as an upper ridge and strong southwest flow drives 70s all the way to central Virginia, perhaps even into the south suburbs of Washington DC. Expect mid-60s through Baltimore, low 60s for Philadelphia, Trenton and Newark. New York City should creep to 60 while Boston makes […]

A fair amount of welcome rain has already fallen over South Texas and Louisiana and not nowhere near over yet as a developing storm centre forms over the western Gulf and lifts north. This low will draw warm, moisture rich air onto the Texas coast with a warm front. As well as the heavy, flooding rains, isolated severe thunderstorms are possible, […]

A flatter flow across the US has forced the coldest air over the West back to the north but this Pacific flow will be short lived as the trough returns and significantly deepens over the next 7 days. An upper level storm pushing across the Southern Plains will bring big rains to Texas and the Lower […]

As you know, there is significant warming on the way to the Plains, Ohio Valley and East which will erase a lot of the snow covering the Lower Midwest and interior Northeast but the Upper Midwest and New England should hold on given the snow depth and this should keep temperatures cooler and mainly in the 40s. Where there is […]
