Good afternoon, everyone. I wanted to drop by for\u00a0a quick update on the busy pattern setting up for the next few weeks. The system getting the most attention is one that comes early next week. It may bring severe thunderstorms before unleashing arctic air behind it.<\/p>\n

The Storm Prediction Center has already highlighted our region for the potential for severe weather for Groundhog Day Tuesday…<\/p>\n

\"SPC\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve been slowly trying to hit this potential over the past few days, because I don’t like the setup I’m seeing with this system. A strong low pressure with a mega temperature gradient and ample moisture and instability out ahead of it, with a negatively tilted trough. I see that and ding ding ding… The alarm bells in my head go off.<\/p>\n

Here’s the GFS for Tuesday…<\/p>\n

The Canadian…<\/p>\n

You can see what amounts to the models showing an explosion of thunderstorms ahead of that system. I will keep watching this setup and update as needed.<\/p>\n

The amount of cold coming in behind this continues to look very impressive…<\/p>\n

\"GFS<\/a><\/p>\n

With the cold locking in, systems are going to try and work east to west underneath the cold. The Canadian Model continues to show this…<\/p>\n

Let me be clear on something… I think we have a lot of winter, possibly harsh, taking shape for February into early March. Just because I’m focusing on the potential for severe storms early next week doesn’t change that fact. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Make it a great day and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
