Saturday Morning Rambles…

1.) An absolutely stunning late February day is dialed up, with lots of sunshine and moderating temperatures.  We’re going mid 50s this afternoon.

2.) Though warm (lower 60s), Sunday will offer up showers by the afternoon/ evening.

3.) Mid and late week remains a challenge.  Do we have a leader-follower situation?  Time will tell.  We’re still leaning mostly wet for the Tuesday-Wednesday storm for now.  The late week system could offer up accumulating snow prospects (ala. ECMWF, GEM).

4.)  The period opens warm, but we shift much colder than average by the end of the week.

5.) We continue to look into spring and summer.  With the dramatic shift expected to a La Nina, fun times will ensue.  Hot, dry summer around these parts followed by a snowy winter?  Hmmmm….

Monday Evening Rambles…

1.)  Tuesday’s upper air disturbance looks to track further and further SW with each and every passing model run.  While we’ll keep an eye on things, it’s apparent that best snow chances will be across far SW counties, and even that may be generous (this thing is tracking much further west than what appeared a couple days ago), courtesy of NCEP.

42.)  A significant warm-up is still on schedule for late week, centered on Friday, where temperatures will likely push to, or exceed, 60 degrees as ridging builds in.  Image courtesy of Tropicaltidbits.com.

13.)  The warmth will be brief, however, as a colder pattern returns (thank you positive PNA), including an interesting look for winter storm potential across the east days 8-10.  (No need to get fancy with specifics at this juncture).
