Learn About Northeast Climate & Weather Changes In The US

The system originates in the Plains and then moves northeast across the Midwest and Great Lakes before progressing into Canada. It originates in the Plains and move northeast through the Midwest and Great Lakes. These systems tend to bring heavy wintry precipitation to the Midwest, Great Lakes and upper Plains, and, if all goes right, these systems can attain massive amounts of moisture from the Gulf of Mexico to enhance these wintry precipitation prospects. The Bering Sea Rule isn’t the only long range piece of guidance we can use to detect a potential storm. So we now have two timeframes for a potential storm system. This additional moisture will only enhance any possible precipitation that may occur with storm systems in the US. WINTRY PRECIP WILL BE MORE COMMON. A common symptom that the output is being affected by more than one process is the occurrence of more than one mode (most commonly occurring value) in the output. Positive readings in these images indicate that the PDO is positively correlated with either temperature anomalies or precipitation anomalies in that given area, depending on the figure being viewed, while negative readings imply negative correlations. Northern Cardinals also have a unique alarm call that is given to warn the female cardinal when predators approach the nest.

Here at house we have been having sprinkles with wind gusts around 30 to perhaps 35 mph. The RAWS site on Mt. Hopkins (near the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory) have been gusting over 80 mph since a bit after 3:00 am this morning, with a max gust so far to 91 mph (see plot above). Here, in a CFS four-member ensemble forecasts developed by Kyle MacRitchie, we see the long range projection of the Madden-Julian Oscillation, in its eight-phase phase space diagram. Using this graph, we see that the MJO is projected to enter Phase 5 around December 27th, which all ensemble members agree on. Part of me really wanted to see one last accumulating snow before the snap to spring next week so maybe it clouded my judgement a little. This enables a bigger potential for colder air to migrate south into the US, and for snow to occur slightly more times than rain in this occasion.

Below is the final snow map for tonight into tomorrow. The AMO (Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation) index is complicated and something we’re still trying to map out. Because this potential event is still about a month away, we don’t know how the teleconnections will react to possibly force this storm in a different direction than what the MJO OLR composites predict will happen. How do we know the track of this storm? Here is where we employ the Bering Sea Rule, a rule created by Joe Renken after his observation of storm patterns in the Bering Sea and the United States. Image created by Larry Cosgrove. The next 45-day precipitation forecast from the CFS ensemble members shows a pretty similar story across the board as the first forecast image. In the image around one day from now, we see a somewhat elevated risk of freezing rain turning into rain. The most risk centered around the Wisconsin/Illinois border.

Another 3 hours further, the risk for changeover continues but is more disorganized and now practically nonexistent. The use of genetic screening and testing is beneficial in obtaining information pertinent to calculating the risk factor for individuals and their families. The weather in Las Vegas in January and February is better then the weather is in much of the United States, and elsewhere, but its not perfect. If the recent winters that we’ve had are anything to go by, then it’s pretty safe to assume that the mercury is going to plummet considerably over the next few weeks and months. There are so many color options and length options that you’ll be able to wear one with basically any coat you own. They are comfortable to wear too, and that is one more reason they are a favourite among all age groups. Customized athletic promotional giveaways are fabulous for boosting school spirit and pumping up a crowd for the big game. If you are switching for a home first you have to switch utilities.
