Whoa! What a Season...

It's been quite the journey this year, here's what comes next.

First, I apologize for the sporadic nature of our updates this season. I’ve had a much busier calendar than usual, with competing projects within the weather space (and outside) that've completely zapped our ability to do everything.

But we’re back and I’m ready to rock and roll. Let’s discuss the pattern and what we’re currently working on.

Where We Are

The current pattern over the U.S. is chaotic at best. The polar jet is truly polar, shunted well north — until it isn’t. There’s also a cut-off low over the Baja and a ridge trying to build in within all of that.

In short, the pattern resembles an entire extended family trying to make a 3-bedroom house work.

What in the pattern recognition is this?

The broad WNW flow over the middle of the country will allow for at least a few more days of severe weather chances over the High Plains that line out and move SE into the lower plains.

After that, we’ll see troughin…
