7:00 AM | *Quite nice weather to start the new week*

Paul Dorian

The week starts off quite warm and it should remain mild into the late week with temperatures later today peaking near the 70 degrees mark. Temperatures are likely to reach well into the 60’s for highs each of the next few days and then colder air may make a return to the area at the end of the week.

6:15 AM | **Threat of more snow in the near-term...70 degrees possible in the medium-term**

Paul Dorian

A couple of systems will impact the area with some snow one of which will occur this morning and the second from later tonight through Friday. Accumulations in general will be on the light side across the metro region. But several inches are possible between today and Saturday in some of the mountain areas. The overall weather pattern turns much warmer by the latter part of the weekend and earlier part of next week.

6:15 AM | ***Strong winds in the Denver metro area and blizzard conditions off to the east of here in eastern Colorado***

Paul Dorian

A major storm system is impacting Much of Colorado with strong winds in the Denver metro area and blizzard conditions off to the east in eastern Colorado where gusts can top 60 mph. This same system will help to set off a widespread and enhanced severe weather threat later today and tonight across the Lower and Middle Mississippi Valley regions with isolated tornadoes on the table.

9:45 AM | ***Severe weather next three days…today’s threat TX-OK-to-KS…enhanced risk tomorrow centered over Lower/Middle MS Valley…threat shifts to east coast at mid-week***

Paul Dorian

The month of March is now underway and it certainly can feature multiple severe weather outbreaks as the air becomes increasingly warm and humid across the southern states at the same time colder-than-normal air masses continue to push south and east from Canada into the US. The ingredients are falling into place for severe weather during each of the next three days as indeed colder-than-normal air from the western states will push eastward into a warmer-than-normal air mass that today will be centered over the central states. The main threat zone for severe weather today is likely to extend from Texas-to-Oklahoma-to-Kansas and then an enhanced risk is likely on Tuesday centered over the Lower and Middle Mississippi Valley region. Spring-like storm conditions will reach the eastern states on Wednesday with windy, warmer weather, soaking rainfall, and the potential of strong-to-severe thunderstorm activity.

7:00 AM | ***Strong Pacific storm moves east with a big impact here from late today through Tuesday...blizzard conditions across the eastern Colorado plains***

Paul Dorian

A major Pacific Ocean storm is moving east and will have a big impact on the area from late today into Tuesday. Rain will begin in the Denver metro region late today and then change to snow later tonight as colder air pours in and the snow will continue Tuesday morning…small accumulations are on the table. An even bigger impact will place just to the east of here across the eastern Colorado Plains where snow can fall heavily late tonight and early Tuesday and winds can gust to 60 mph or so…i.e., blizzard conditions.

11:00 AM | ***Occasional cold air outbreaks to last through the month of March...a favorable pattern for severe weather...and additional snow chances in the northern US***

Paul Dorian

Today’s weather features above-normal temperatures across much of the nation and the next couple of days will remain on the mild side in the Mid-Atlantic region with high temperatures approaching 60 degrees in some areas. We are about to flip the calendar from February to March and it appears quite likely that there will be occasional cold air intrusions from Canada into the US during the next few weeks. Supporting evidence for additional cold air outbreaks during the month of March include the strong likelihood of a “disrupted” stratospheric polar vortex with significant warming near the North Pole by the middle of March and the movement of a tropical disturbance known as the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). These occasional cold air outbreaks will contribute to an overall active weather pattern in the month of March and likely set the stage multiple severe weather outbreaks. In addition, the continuing cold air intrusions will certainly keep hope alive for snow lovers with multiple upcoming chances; especially, across interior higher elevation locations of the northern Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US.

11:15 AM | *A “back and forth” temperature pattern likely to set the stage for multiple severe weather outbreaks during the month of March*

Paul Dorian

Today’s weather features above-normal temperatures across much of the nation and the remainder of the week will be generally on the mild side including in the Mid-Atlantic region where high temperatures of 60+ degrees will be commonplace. As nice as it may feel during the next few days, it appears likely that additional cold air outbreaks will make their way from Canada into the US during the next few weeks and this “back and forth” in temperatures could set the stage for multiple severe weather outbreaks during the month of March perhaps with a focus in the region from the Gulf coast to the Tennessee Valley. As the new month progresses, increasing strength of the sun will allow for warmer air masses to develop down across the southern states and any incoming cold air mass from Canada can produce “clash zones” with the prospects of severe weather. One such threat could take place next week somewhere in the middle of the nation with cold air from the north and west pushing towards warm, humid air to the south and east and there can be a repeat performance in the week to follow.
