Spring is in the Air...but will flakes be soon?

The Blowtorch is on. Records will fall this week as the heat builds. Everyone will say winter over but you can impress them by saying it will come back.

I’m going to give you a simple timeline of how I expect the next few weeks to go.

Jan 4-7-- Blowtorch City. Could hit 70 degrees on Saturday. This should be no surprise as I’ve hyped this up for a few weeks now. Rainstorm Jan 7-8 from the Gulf of Mexico up the Eastern Seaboard

Jan 8-Rain storm. Still above average but cold front coming in. This will give us temporary bout of cold

Jan 9-10—Cold shot. Possible Clipper giving snow to Ohio,PA,New England. With how warm its been…this will feel really cold.

Jan 11-15 Pattern change begins. Arctic air starts pouring into NW Canada. As trough builds in Western US, a ridge pops open in the east and we temporary go back to blowtorch while the east gets cold. Cold air starts to slowly migrate East

Jan 15-20—Cold air starts to arrive in the east in this time frame give or take a day and we begin to talk about storm threats. By this time next week, I’ll have a better idea how long this will last and how harsh it could get. If we get a ridge building in Greenland, we could have a spectacular return of winter and possibly a very sustained stretch. Most El Nino Winters do much better in the 2nd half than the first half

For those of you guys who are cheering for it to keep warm…keep in mind. Warm winter usually equals cold miserable spring and also the Ski resorts are suffering really bad. Wouldn’t be surprised if some shut down for good.
