Another major storm system that is headed towards the Great Lakes will impact the Tennessee Valley from later tonight through tomorrow night. This system like the prior can bring powerful winds to the area as well as some heavy rainfall. It turns colder on Saturday following the passage of this system and then Arctic air will make inroads into the southeastern part of the country by early next week and we could see overnight lows in the single digits.

Intensely cold air is dropping out of western Canada and into the northern US and it will push into Colorado for the weekend. Temperatures today will peak in the 20’s today and then the 30’s on Friday, but they will be hard pressed to escape single digits on both Saturday and Sunday. Low temperatures this weekend are very likely to drop to well below zero and adding more in the way of discomfort, there will be chances for snow each day this weekend and winds will be strong creating dangerously low wind chill values.

As one powerful storm exits towards southeastern Canada, another system is gathering strength over the western US and it will become a powerhouse by Friday evening over the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes. This next strong storm will generate blizzard conditions over much of the Midwest and Great Lakes region from later Friday into Saturday and it’ll produce more heavy rain and strong winds for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. Meanwhile, there has been a buildup of intense cold air over western Canada in recent days and it is now slipping south and east and into the US. This late week/weekend major storm system will actually help in its advance to the south and east and much colder air will work its way all the way to the eastern seaboard by the second half of the weekend. As it turns out, there are signs that a storm may intensify early next week somewhere near the east coast and with the expected late weekend influx of much colder air, accumulating snow may be on the table this time for the big cities along the I-95 corridor.

In August of 2017 America went crazy for the first coast-to-coast total solar eclipse on US soil since 1918 and it provided a great opportunity for scientists and all sky watchers. What was referred to as “The Great American Solar Eclipse” took place on August 21st, 2017 when the moon passed between the sun and earth. Total solar eclipses occur somewhere on Earth every year or so, but generally cast their shadows over oceans or remote land masses. If you missed the 2017 total solar eclipse or it turned out to be cloudy in your particular area then there will be another opportunity in just under three months from now on Monday, April 8th, 2024. This time the Moon's dark shadow, about 115 miles wide, will cross Mexico, sweep northeast from Texas to Maine, and then darken the Canadian Maritimes.

The powerful storm system that brought heavy rainfall and howling winds to the region yesterday and last night will push into southeastern Canada today. Winds will remain quite strong gusting up to 45 mph or so, but from a westerly direction on the back side of the departing storm system. Another powerful storm system can bring heavy rain and strong winds to the Mid-Atlantic region on Friday night and this second system will usher in much colder air for the latter part of the upcoming weekend and the early part of next week. In fact, there will be some intense cold this weekend dropping southward from Canada into the US and some of this Arctic air will trek south and east reaching the eastern seaboard later in the weekend. A third storm system threatens the eastern states early-to-middle part of next week and this time snow will be on the table in the I-95 corridor given the expected preceding arrival of Arctic air.

An active weather pattern will continue across much of the nation during the next several days and another storm system will have an impact on the Tennessee Valley. After a couple of quieter days, the next system is likely to bring us showers and thunderstorms late Thursday night and Friday as it heads northeastward towards the Great Lakes. It’ll turn colder around here this weekend on the back side of this next storm system.

Intense cold will makes its way from western Canada and into the US during the next couple of days and will works its way to Colorado this weekend. The overall pattern remains active and there are additional chances of snow into the upcoming weekend. However, the bigger weather story around here will be the influx of bitter cold Arctic air that might result in overnight lows of below zero during the upcoming weekend.

The powerful storm system that brought heavy rainfall to the region yesterday and last night will push to our northwest today and winds will remain strong and shift to a west-to-southwest direction. While not as powerful as late yesterday and last night, winds can gust to 50 mph or so and there can be a few residual rain showers. Another powerful storm system can bring heavy rain and strong winds to the Mid-Atlantic region on Friday night and this second system will usher in much colder air for the latter part of the upcoming weekend and early part of next week. In fact, there will be some intense cold this weekend dropping southward from Canada into the US and some of this Arctic air will trek south and east reaching the eastern seaboard later in the weekend. A third storm system threatens the eastern states early-to-mid next week and this time snow or a mix of snow and ice will be on the table in the I-95 corridor given the expected preceding influx of Arctic air.

A powerful storm system will bring heavy rainfall and increasingly strong winds to the Mid-Atlantic region and Northeast US this afternoon and tonight leading to localized flooding and unfortunately, numerous power outages are on the table. The grounds are well-saturated from recent heavy rain events and today’s storm can add another 2 or 3 inches with isolated higher amounts possible. Winds can gust to 55 or 60 mph along the interior sections of the I-95 corridor with even higher amounts along coastal sections of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. As a result, trees, limbs and power lines will be quite vulnerable leading to the fear that power outages can become widespread.
