There is most definitely a lagging effect from the El Nino and record warmth it’s brought through last summer and fall so far with it continuing into November. So where the heck is the cold? It’s in Eurasia where we’ve likely got the greatest extend of October/November snow cover since 1998. While folks from Rapid City to Minneapolis walk […]
Did you see last night’s latest article I put up from weather.com? When the heck is summer going to end you may be asking, well models show at least some change mid and late November but there’s nothing particularly cold for the East on the horizon in my opinion. Atlanta, GA has seen a record amount […]
Published Nov 3 2016 06:16 PM EDT weather.com Story Highlights Days of record heat have baked parts of the Plains, South, Ohio Valley and mid-Atlantic this week. All-time November record-high temperatures were tied or broken Tuesday-Thursday. There is some “relief” ahead late this week. A fall heat wave smashing not only hundreds of daily records, […]
Today’s winter forecast is based on all current global atmospheric/oceanic drivers in place, their current status and model projection. Following the record tying strongest El Nino in history last winter in which global temperature has been at record levels for some 16 months as a consequence, the ENSO is back NEUTRAL although record warmth is still be […]

This […]
The endless summer pattern steps out of October and into November, reinforced by a polar vortex split which favours a cold Eurasia but continued warm Lower 48. For the East, this October, like September and August will go down as one of the warmest and warmest on record for some. Having 1 of 2 pieces of the polar vortex […]
For the majority of the Lower 48, Halloween is mild to warm as well as quiet. I say the majority because not all will enjoy a Halloween which could be mistaken for late summer. A system crossing the Great Lakes/Lower Midwest will provide shower activity while the main focus of weather will be over California […]
As we lean towards November, the US weather pattern remains very interesting. Following what’s likely to be a record warm October for much of the Lower 48 east of the Rockies, we have just witnessed an impressive late October snowstorm for the interior Northeast. Nothing unprecedented by any means but impressive given how warm it’s […]
The post El Nino dominance of warmth holds strong through meteorological autumn’s second month. This was September… Despite a strong -AO, the warmth continues. October so far! That trend even continues into early November… Another warm month to come? I believe the first half of November will continue to see a warmer than normal pattern over […]
