Monday Update: Major Snowstorm Targets Eastern New England

Out in the mountains of Utah, but had time to cut a video regarding the major snowstorm that will impact Eastern New England tonight through tomorrow. There will also be some nuisance effects for areas like northern New Jersey and surrounding areas tomorrow morning. The target zone however remains eastern CT,RI,central to eastern Mass,NH and Maine. Expect a few inches of snow possible for the outside areas.

All the details in my short video below..

  2. Hey Willy, hope the skiing is going well and that you will get back soon. Looks like a few more flakes are possible for next week, maybe another two or three inches here in metro northeast NJ for early Tuesday morning (Euro) or Tuesday night (GFS, CMC). Looks like some real snow potential just over the NY border and into Connecticut. The Euro seems to take this more seriously, up to 4 inches here. An interesting way to end the winter season! That's my preliminary .02, awaiting your detailed and well-considered analysis, as usual. Jim G

  3. Also, here's quote from new Rutgers study that Judah Cohen was involved in: "As the Arctic transitions from a relatively cold state to a warmer one, the frequency of severe winter weather in mid-latitudes increases through the transition. However, this relationship is strongest in the eastern US and mixed to even opposite along the western US. We also show that during mid-winter to late-winter of recent decades, when the Arctic warming trend is greatest and extends into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere, severe winter weather—including both cold spells and heavy snows—became more frequent in the eastern United States." You can find the article on the nature.com website, it was published on-line on 13 March 2018 as: "Warm Arctic episodes linked with increased frequency of extreme winter weather in the United States", Judah Cohen, Karl Pfeiffer & Jennifer A. Francis

    FYI, Jim G

    1. That is very interesting Jim. I will go look into that article. I wish we had more detailed weather data going back hundreds of years to see the larger cycles that this earth goes through. Things are changing for sure but what is the cause? Many say humans, but I would love to see more in depth discussion around historical weather patterns.Maybe the answer is a combination of everything. Very interesting to say the least.

      And next week is interesting. The grand finalie? I will take a look at it soon.
