There are 2 unusual aspects of today's satellite imagery: 1. It's May 30th and there's a Nor'Easter. 2. This Nor'Easter is moving south rather than north. #wxtwitter #wxX

Weekend Storm Update Despite what you might have heard… I am STILL tracking the potential for a significant snow event this weekend. If it happens, the snow would arrive Sunday afternoon/evening. Model Guidance has been all over the place but I’ve been fairly consistent with my message: This looks like a Miller B Nor’Easter. Miller B storms typically have a mix line that sets up along I-78/I-80 in eastern PA and NJ. The European Model suggests that mix changes over to heavy snow as this storm strengthens. Whether or not that actually happens is pure speculation at this point. There are some non-linear processes that need to go exactly correct for this storm to produce significant snow. If not, the storm could miss off to the south. So nothing is set in stone yet, but the threat remains. ~Meteorologist Mark Margavage #wxtwitter #wxX #PAwx

The “Out to Sea” A.I. Models are backing up like dump trucks ready to dump a whole bunch of snow on us. #wxtwitter #wxX

“Valentines Weekend” Storm Update 🌹She loves me… (Euro AI) 🥀She loves me not… (ECMWF) My take is the Operational European has a suppression bias when it comes to Miller B storms. We saw that with the storm back on January 25th, so I would side with the further north, AI solution on this one…for now. Still a long way off. #wxtwitter #wxX

I DO NOT Endorse NOAA’s Winter Temperature Outlook. As I pointed out last year, they are making the same error again: relying on the climatology of a Strong La Niña when a Strong La Niña is neither present nor forecast to develop. If you want a Winter Outlook from a Winter Weather Specialist who looks at more than just the ENSO state, mine comes out in ~2 weeks. Stay tuned! ~Meteorologist Mark Margavage #Winter #Winteriscoming #wxtwitter #wxX

Multiple Models agree... Summer heat will be in short supply after this week. As a strongly positive PNA pattern develops, the Emperor of the North will be in control of our weather for much of August! That means we're going to be spoiled by beautiful weather, lower dew points, and perhaps an early taste of Fall! 🍁 #wxtwitter #wxX

I’m issuing a Plowable Snow Watch in effect for Tuesday December 2nd in the following areas: Northern Virginia West Virginia Panhandle Western & Central Maryland Central & Eastern Pennsylvania Southeast New York All of Southern New England This means plowable snow is possible and you should monitor forecasts for future updates. #wxtwitter #wxX #VAwx #WVwx #MDwx #PAwx #NYwx #CTwx #RIwx #MAwx #CTwx #Snow #winteriscoming

Southern New England has gotten absolutely blasted by snow today. An arctic cold front merged with an inverted trough to produce very heavy snow in a narrow area. This was discussed in my forecast, but reality has overperformed my expectations and every model forecast there was. Wow! I have a few reports of OVER 12” in Massachusetts and a widespread 6-10” in Rhode Island today. #MAwx #RIwx #wxtwitter #wxX

Early Fall? Multiple models are saying : ✅👍 They depict Hurricane Erin 🌀acts like a magnet 🧲 and pulls colder air into the Eastern US for the remainder of August. The colder, drier air also acts to deflect the Hurricane out to sea. 🌬️ (This remains the most likely scenario.) Note: 0z GFS used for illustration only…actual temperature anomalies will vary #wxtwitter #wxX
