Spring pattern unfolds for next week

10:34 AM
The pattern that is going to unfold through this weekend is a typical spring time pattern as the trough that has been positioned over the East the past few months continues to retrograde to the West.  As a result, a series of low pressure system will rapidly move through the Mid Atlantic for the [...]

Pacific pattern begins to take hold by this weekend

7:29 AM
The exit of an area of low pressure on Friday morning will finally break the grip of Arctic air over the forecast area that has influenced the region for the first half of this week.  Warmer modified Pacific air will flood into the forecast area on Friday as high pressure positions itself to the [...]

Marine air mass keeps region cool through next week

7:21 AM
The model guidance has really come into strong agreement over the past 24 hours with respect to the overall upper level pattern and the development of surface features through the middle of next week.  There are two key players that will drive the up coming pattern for the CONUS.  The first is the strong [...]

The Transition To Spring Begins

10:16 AM
Spring will officially begin on March 20th according to the calendar.  Looks like the upper level pattern is going to actually help out in bringing Spring-like conditions to the forecast area.  While the northern branch continues to sway between a negative NAO to a negative EPO pattern, the influence of the northern branch will [...]

A Return To Normal Temperatures Next Week

6:06 AM
The cold conditions of this weekend will be a bitter memory by the middle of next week.  The negative NAO that supported the strong high pressure system over the forecast area and the cold Polar air mass, will weaken and retreat to the north for next week.  A more zonal pattern will unfold over [...]

High Pressure Keeps Storms At Bay Through The Weekend

7:34 AM
There is a lot of moisture pooling over the southern Mississippi Valley this morning along the stalled cold front that blew through last night.  The good news is that the high pressure system over the western Great Lakes is strong enough to keep much of that moisture to the south of the forecast area [...]

The Negative NAO Comes And Goes

6:19 AM
In a span of roughly four days, the influences of the negative NAO will peak and fade over the forecast area as the Pacific jet stream begins to flex it’s own muscles.  
Strong high pressure will dominate the forecast area on Friday through Sunday with clear skies and below normal temperatures.  A cool Canadian [...]

March Madness Begins

9:11 AM
March madness is about to begin for the forecast area.  Well, really it’s already started.  So far this March we’ve had a snow storm that produced more snow for some locations than what we received for December, January, and February combined; we’ve had mid 60’s for highs, and now an eventual return to cold [...]

And In This Corner!

7:57 AM
A battle is setting up of atmospheric proportions between the more progressive Pacific pattern that is being established over much of the CONUS and a very strong negative NAO that is forming over the north Atlantic.  For the most part, aside from the negative NAO, there isn’t much in the way of blocking over [...]

Rain Storm Becoming Likely As New Pattern Unfolds

7:09 AM
When patterns change, storm usually develop as a result of the energy released from the changing atmospheric pattern.  However, some of the key features of the overall pattern this year, progressiveness, remains as an important detail when considering what to expect for Sunday and for the start of next week.  
Before diving into how [...]
