INDIANA — New long-range data shows Indiana heading into one of its coldest December stretches so far this season, as powerful atmospheric signals continue trending toward a sharply colder pattern across the central and eastern United States. The latest maps show widespread purple and deep blue temperature anomalies, indicating temperatures running 10 to 20 degrees…
MISSOURI — A powerful Arctic air mass is forecast to plunge into the central United States next weekend, pushing temperatures across Missouri to 25 to 35 degrees below seasonal averages. New forecast guidance and anomaly maps show the state positioned directly beneath one of the deepest cold pools projected anywhere in the country. Missouri Positioned…
UNITED STATES — A growing body of long-range climate data now points toward a significant and far-reaching December cold pattern expected to impact multiple central and southern states, including Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Tennessee. Updated model guidance and analog comparisons highlight a strong shift into a deeply negative West Pacific Oscillation (WPO) — a pattern…
ARKANSAS — A significant blast of Arctic air is increasingly likely to push into Arkansas later this week and into next weekend, bringing temperatures well below normal and signaling a sharp shift in the regional weather pattern. Multiple forecasting models now agree that the state is heading toward its coldest stretch of the season so…
NORTH CAROLINA — Meteorologists are closely watching a growing conflict between long-range computer models and real-world atmospheric indicators, as new projections hint at warm conditions heading toward late December—while deeper climate signals suggest North Carolina could still see a colder pattern emerge east of the Rockies. At face value, extended-range models have been running what…
MICHIGAN — A major pattern flip is on the way for Michigan, as two powerful blasts of Arctic air are expected to sweep into the state beginning next weekend. Forecasters say this will deliver the coldest temperatures of the season so far, accompanied by widespread below-average temperatures, sub-zero wind chills, and a significant increase in…
VIRGINIA — A busy week of Alberta Clipper storms is setting up across the eastern United States, bringing multiple rounds of accumulating snow, bursts of Arctic air, and fast-changing road conditions from Sunday through Saturday. Meteorologists say Virginia will be one of the key East Coast states impacted early in the pattern, with chances for…
MINNESOTA — A series of fast-moving Alberta Clipper systems will dominate the nation’s weather pattern this week, bringing repeated rounds of accumulating snow, sharp drops in temperature, and bursts of Arctic air sweeping across the Midwest and Great Lakes. Forecasters say this is a classic December Clipper pattern, with Minnesota positioned in one of the…
NORTH CAROLINA — A fast-moving winter storm is expected to sweep across the state on Monday, bringing another round of accumulating snow to areas that already received snowfall on Friday — and potentially spreading wintry conditions farther south than the last system. Updated HRRR model runs indicate a sharper push of cold air and a…
WALDRON, MICHIGAN — New national snowfall data from NOAA/NOHRSC reveals that most of the United States has already seen accumulating snow by early December — and Michigan now stands out as the snowiest location east of the Rocky Mountains, driven by persistent lake-effect bands and early-season storm systems. From September 30 to December 6, the…
