United States of America
With heights building north over the Pacific into Alaska and arctic/siberian swells south, all it takes is a Pacific storm to cross the northern US and tap this cold, presenting the first snowstorm of the season and that’s exactly what we’ve got tomorrow into Saturday. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] The next low crosses the Rockies while strong […]
The second major storm in less than a week is now crossing the southern Rockies and poised to bring blizzard conditions and over 2ft of snow to Colorado and a 6-12 inch swath from Denver through Kansas and Nebraska tonight through tomorrow. While there’s a distinct wintry side, rich warm, moist air is sweeping into the Southern Plains from Gulf is […]
The big storm is now leaving the playing field and as it does, cold winds on the backside are triggering lake effect snow showers and instability snow showers across the Northeast as seen from the below radar. While one leaves, another arrives and this one looks to cause bigger problems than the last for the […]
This week’s big Pacific storm is now bringing gales widely across the Ohio Valley, Northeast and Great Lakes but it’s heavy snowfall in the Sierra Nevada has helped bring the earliest open to California ski resorts since 2002. Thank El Nino! The very storm is now lifting north, northeast into northern Quebec. This AM’s temps. Like winter in Canada, […]
US NEXT WEEK: Another Big Storm With Severe Weather, Flooding Rain, Heavy Snow & First Arctic Blast?
Firstly I want to show you what the models have temperature departure-wise through the rest of the month. Looks like there’s good agreement on a cooler West and warmer East with an active storm track across the country. Notice the extremes greaten day 6-10… CFSv2 weeklies [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] EPS control By no means is it […]
The latest Pacific storm has system brought a classic weather flip to Denver. Following a high of 67 sunny degrees Tuesday AHEAD of the low, heavy snow broke out overnight following the passage of the cold front BEHIND. A dramatic turn fairly typical for this time of year. Check out the visible satellite and infrared loop […]
Both West and East coasts are under storm systems this afternoon. While the western system dives into the West and is set to cause problems with snow in the mountains, severe weather on the Plains and potentially very strong wind and high waves on the Great Lakes later in the week, the Southeast system continues to bring […]
It’s been a wild past 6 months for the Southern Tier with extreme drought Jan-March then record rains Apr-May which essentially wiped out the TX/OK drought but then came a very dry June-Aug which brought the return to extreme drought. Then it turned around again during the 2nd half of October and following a series of major rain […]
November sure has opened wild across the Lower 48 with the biggest rains in 6 months for San Francisco, up to 32 inches of snow falls in Colorado while the Eastern Seaboard enjoys day after day of record warmth stretching from South Florida to New England. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Today’s setup. 850mb temp anomalies. Impressive thermal gradient. […]
There’s strong cross model agreement on this Western trough, eastern ridge pattern anchoring itself over the US through Nov 20th at least. This means systems will frequently push in off the Pacific bringing wind, rain and snow. Much needed moisture for so many! Texas and the Southern Plains into the Mid-South on the other hand don’t need anymore […]
