We’re about to enter into a very interesting short term and long term pattern. A strong cold front is en route to the east (take a look at the blue line in the screenshot of the front coming through a resort in Michigan). I don’t have the drop quite as sharp in the Northeast (12 …

The Week Ahead 11/13
Inversions stuck around for quite some time today ahead of a weak system coming through New England tonight. We’re seeing it dissipate as it moves through the area, so we’ll likely see some minor temperature movements (up and down) as the warm front and cold front move over the Northeast while simultaneously breaking down (WPC …
Long Term Trends 11/10
We start to shift the weather pattern a bit next week; but even then there’s been some discrepancy on how that evolves. There’s clear consensus on the cold retreating Wednesday of next week. The first divide in the road comes with a system next weekend. The Euro tries to bring a disorganized low pressure up …
The Week Ahead 11/6
The week ahead will have some volatility to it; we don’t stay in the same place for very long until we get to the weekend. Temperatures rise tonight as the first of two systems this week arrives from the Great Lakes (after bringing some heavier rain there). The band with the warm front is fairly …
Long Term Trends 11/3
We’ve ventured through our first block of cold, and for now, it retreats until the middle of next week. Heading out into Days 7-14, the eastern trough does begin the retreat, and there’s decent consensus on that. The trough isn’t intensely deep in the East, so the pattern should stay active with the combination of …
The Week Ahead 10/30
Here comes the first cold punch of the season… We’re looking at a slow, gradual temperature decrease tonight with many summits and even base areas getting well into the 20’s for the first time this season. Tuesday will be a colder day but uneventful weather-wise. Many areas will keep the cold despite some sunshine expected. …
Mobile Alert Update
Over the summer, our third-party mobile messaging service implemented new rules and regulations for mobile messaging, including vetting companies utilizing mobile messaging services (to avoid spam messaging).

Long Term Trends 10/27
While our first blast of cold is coming in next week, there is some wobble to the depth of the cold. Until the tropics die down, we’re not going to see long term, deep cold. The good news is that week the first full week of November is starting to track a touch colder than …
The Week Ahead 10/23
After another rainy weekend, we’re heading into a warm pattern for the end of the week. I hesitate to call it the last hurrah of warmth, because I think November will be a transition month, but it could be last prolonged stretch of it. Temperatures will be some 8-12 degrees above average through the weekend …
The Week Ahead 10/16
We’re in a typical fall pattern heading into mid-month, with some lingering showers to start the week, and heavier rain possible over the weekend – again. While the thought of another rainy weekend isn’t exciting, it’s encouraging to see a cycle forming in the weather pattern. This is something we haven’t seen since the spring. …
