While the eastern states suffer through Arctic cold, the western half of the nation will continue to experience relatively mild conditions. We’ll have moderately chilly conditions around here for the next few days and then it will become milder this weekend with highs likely to be well up in the 50’s on both days.
Read MoreThe next few days will feature some of the coldest weather ever seen around here with overnight lows on Wednesday night, Thursday night, and Friday night likely flirting with the zero degree mark in many spots. The last time Philly Airport (PHL) officially recorded a below zero temperature was in January of 1994. This 3-day bitter cold spell will likely produce some record low temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic region as well as some record low high temperatures, and wind chills will be persistently below zero.
In addition to the bitter cold, there is the chance of an impact here this weekend by what looks like will become a powerful storm system somewhere near the eastern seaboard. This system will undergo dramatic intensification as it moves from the Outer Banks region to the western Atlantic Ocean and questions remain as to its ultimate path. The closer it comes to the coast, the bigger the impact in the I-95 corridor…the best chance for significant impacts as it stands right now will be along coastal sections of New Jersey/Delmarva Peninsula…stay tuned.

The last time Central Park officially recorded a below zero temperature was in February of 2016. This 3-day bitter cold spell will likely produce some record low temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic region as well as some record low high temperatures, and wind chills will be persistently below zero.

Read MoreIn the wake of the major weekend winter storm, a very cold weather pattern has set up across the eastern states, and it looks like it’ll be quite a memorable stretch both in terms of magnitude and duration. A long-wave trough parked over the eastern US is allowing for the reinforcement of Arctic air masses with an especially bitter one coming to the Mid-Atlantic region for the second half of the week. Low temperatures on Wednesday night, Thursday night, and Friday night are likely to flirt with the zero-degree mark in many locations and challenge low temperature records. In addition, there may be record low high temperatures later in the week with afternoon highs likely limited to the teens - even in the big cities.
In addition to the relentless bitter cold, it looks like a powerful storm system will form this weekend somewhere near the eastern seaboard. This system is likely to have its origins over the Gulf region and then push northeastward to near the east coast while intensifying dramatically. It is still too early to determine its ultimate path, but a close trek to the coast could indeed bring significant snowfall and strong winds to portions of the northeastern states.
Read MoreOur very cold weather pattern will continue right into the weekend in the Mid-Atlantic region and it looks like this stretch of cold will end up being quite memorable both in terms of magnitude and duration. There are going to be flirtations with the zero degree mark for overnight lows through the remainder of the week and likely to be some record low temperatures along the way as well as record low high temperatures. In addition to the prolonged bitter cold, there are strong signals for a powerful western Atlantic storm this weekend…questions remain as to whether this storm would be close enough to the coast to potentially have a big impact around here or just far enough away to minimize its effects…stay tuned.

Read MoreThe current cold pattern across the eastern states is reminiscent of January 1986 when an Arctic air outbreak played a key role in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster that took place 40 years ago from Wednesday on January 28th, 1986. NASA’s Space Shuttle orbiter Challenger (mission STS-51-L) broke apart 73 seconds into its flight leading to the deaths of its seven crew members. STS-51-L was the 25th American Space Shuttle Program flight since the program began in 1981. It was also the first mission to have a civilian on board, American teacher Christa McAuliffe. The spacecraft disintegrated over the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Cape Canaveral, Florida at 11:39 EST (16:39 UTC). According to the Report of the Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident, weather conditions were likely one of the factors that contributed to the incident. Tests conducted during the subsequent investigation showed that O-rings were much less resilient at lower temperatures, but the extreme cold at the Kennedy Space Center was not the only weather factor involved with this tragedy. Wind shear aloft may have been a contributing factor as well with two different airstreams in the vicinity of the launch site of the Space Shuttle Challenger.

There may be record low temperatures in coming days as well as record low high temperatures; especially, in the period of the 29th to the 31st. In addition to the cold, there are signals for a powerful storm this weekend over the western Atlantic and it certainly can become a big-time snow producer for portions of the northeastern states.
Read MoreIn the wake of the major winter storm, this week will be one of the coldest ever seen in these parts with overnight lows flirting with the 0-degree mark on multiple occasions. This will be quite a memorable stretch of cold weather both in terms of magnitude and duration. Note - the last time NYC recorded a temperature below zero was in February 2016…the winter full of ice storms. A long wave trough of low pressure has settled across the eastern US and this will allow several reinforcing shots of Arctic air. Looking ahead, there is the chance for another big weekend storm…something to monitor in coming days.
