Major Storm Next Week


There will be a major storm in the central third of the U.S. early next week: Tornadoes, flooding and a blizzard. It is too soon to say exactly where and when. Forecaster Evie and I are on the case so look for updates over the weekend.

    The models are not even close this morning re: next week's storm. An excerpt from the KBOU weather discussion: MOISTURE-WISE...THE ECMWF
    HAS A DECENT PRECIPITATION WINDOW FOR THE CWA FROM MONDAY EVENING
    INTO LATE MORNING TUESDAY. THE GFS SHOWS A FIERCE PROLONGED WINDOW
    OF DEEP MOISTURE FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY
    EVENING. A HUGE DIFFERENCE FOR SURE. IF THE GFS WERE TO COME
    TRUE...WE WOULD CERTAINLY SEE A MAJOR...EVEN AN ALL TIME RECORD...
    SNOWFALL FOR MUCH OF THE URBAN CORRIDOR. THE UNCERTAINTY BETWEEN
    THE MODELS IS SEVERE.

    That is why I said it is "too soon" to forecast the specifics of this storm.

    ...and I'll be flying into it...will be keeping an eye on this. Thanks for blogging it.

    BTW, since I commented in September about potentially getting stranded at work due to flooding: That didn't happen (but I'm glad I was prepared just in case). What did happen: My neighborhood at home lost power. And then when the power came back on, my neighbor's whole-house generator started a fire. His house was not destroyed, thank goodness, but it was severely damaged.

    You see, after Sandy, local electricians had a year-long waiting list for generator installation. So my neighbor went ahead and installed his himself.

    People...don't do that. Hire an electrician.
