I have good news this week!  Finally, the Mid Atlantic and Northeast will get a break from weather impacts this week, after the cold front moves through on Tuesday. The system that brought active showers and T-storms to the central part of the country and snow to much of the mountainous regions, is still moving eastward.  Expect showers ahead of the cold front, with a little wintry... read more

It was a stormy weekend for the central part of the country as a strong system pushed through the Great Lakes, bringing storms all the way down into the South. This week, it looks to be another typical fall week.  Temperatures will be around normal and rather seasonal.  The system from the weekend will push through the Northeast Monday.  However, another strong cold front is... read more

Happy October!  For the first week of the month, we are anticipating a lot of changes to the weather.  Expect cooler than normal temperatures for most of the country by the weekend as a strong cold front pulls down cooler air from Canada. In fact, we may see our first shot for a rain and snow mix in DEN on Saturday!  On the flip side, warmer than normal temperatures will... read more

It is officially Fall, and the weather is beginning to show it! Cooler temperatures and even frost have made their way into the Great Lakes early this week, due to a strong “clipper” system from Canada over the weekend.  A wet week is ahead for parts of the U.S. moving into the last week of September, as a system is expected to stall out in the heart of the country early this week and bring... read more

After an active week last week, we are expecting this week to be much quieter weather-wise.  Tropical Storm Leslie has moved away from Bermuda, and no more major, imminent tropical storms are expected to impact any of our stations this week.  After a pretty nasty line of storms came through the Northeast last weekend, it has dried out since then, and the Northeast will remain high... read more

After moving through some of our southern Florida stations, conditions following Isaac should be improving early this week for EYW, FLL, PBI, RSW, and TPA.  The storm appears to be next heading toward MSY, and possibly, PNS and ECP.  We are keeping a close eye on Isaac as its current forecast track takes the storm right into New Orleans as a Category 1 Hurricane.... read more

There will be another typical mid-summer week, as we move into the beginning of August.  Hot and humid conditions continue in the central part of the country, with temperatures far into the 100s for much of the week!  The Northern Plains, Midwest, and Great Lakes have cooled down temperature wise, but could see a few rounds of thunderstorms this week.  The Mid-Atlantic, Northeast... read more

Occasional thunderstorms also will be prominent for much of the country, including the Northern and Central Plains,... read more
