Very brief write-up this evening. Had a puncture on my travels today and set me back 2 hours. If you live in the Northeast, don’t be fooled by the nice warm southwest winds of the next few days, your about to nose dive back into February following a taste of late May/early June. Quite an […]
It was a brisk, blustery but brilliantly bright start to Tuesday up and down the Eastern Seaboard this morning as an intense low exits into Atlantic Canada while high pressure builds in from the Upper Midwest. Great sunrises in the eastern cities. Despite the sunshine, winds were intense over Mount Washington this morning where a gust […]
A large storm system driving cold late season air into the West today will bring additional snow from the mountains to Washington to New Mexico including Colorado. Spells of heavy rain and strong, gusty winds will affect low elevations. Things get real interesting towards mid week as this system crosses the Rockies into the Plains. […]
A fast moving cold system dove SE over Colorado far enough south as the Texas Panhandle present a White Easter to a swath stretching from Amarillo through Guymon, OK, Wichita, KS to Omaha, NE. The late March sun really does a work on even a half foot of snow. TX Panhandle High pressure immediately replaced the system clearing skies […]
In last night’s post I shared images and facts on the blizzard which shut down Denver a few days ago, well that very system crossed the Plains and Great Lakes and had quite the split personality. While there was a distinct wintry side over Ontario and summery side across Pennsylvania, I don’t want to overlook the […]
Two days ago Denver received 13.1 inches of snow with a full fledged blizzard. That blizzard shut down DIA for the first time in 10 years while Colorado saw it’s largest power outage in history. Motorists were stranded in snow drifts on I-70. Check out some of these incredible images captured by William Scherer and […]
There’s a lot of weather to speak of across the Lower 48 at this time. From a blizzard which shut down Denver International Airport to late spring 70s in Pennsylvania this afternoon to an ice storm just across the lake in Ontario. Thankfully the weather does turn somewhat less eventful as we head into the Easter weekend. In […]
We continue to see a very active Pacific pattern crossing the country and with colder air seeping into the Northern Tier, these systems have a very snowy side on their rear and severe side out ahead. Simply skipping through the next 240 hours off the GFS alone, there is clearly a focus between Denver and Madison, WI […]
Winter 2015-16 undoubtedly was dominated by this years record tying El Nino with such warmth during December, this essentially shaped the rest of the cold season. The warmth dwarfed any real cold and even the historic Northeast snowstorm in January and historic cold outbreak in February for many, is long forgotten about. What’s been one of the most […]
Well the snow system which is whitening a region from Virginia to New England must have been the toughest to forecast this year. The difference and models and back and forth made it a nightmare. It may well be spring but the calendar often doesn’t reflect the weather pattern this time of year. Some beautiful images […]
