While this summer’s weather hasn’t been the easiest to figure out, the weather models have been doing a pretty good job of getting the big picture right. This was the case once again for last week’s forecast as the upper low stalled out over Hudson Bay as expected, and brought cooler air and afternoon clouds

General weather pattern remains the same

The overall weather pattern doesn’t look like it will change much during this forecast period. We’re currently in a pattern that has a moderate ridge of high pressure over central North America, with this high extending northwards to about the central Prairies. To our east and west are troughs of low pressure. The western trough

Temporary cool-down next week?

Last week’s forecast didn’t play out exactly as the weather models predicted, but that was not unexpected with the slack flow across our region. For those living in the south, the smoke cleared out for the most part, a little earlier than expected, and a slow-moving upper low allowed very warm and humid air to

The old weather pattern returns

Our overall weather pattern seems to have slipped back into the same general pattern that prevailed for much of the winter and spring. That pattern had a persistent ridge of high pressure over western North America and a trough of low pressure over eastern regions. We were stuck between these two main features and our

As we slowly transition into summer, forecasting the weather usually gets easier, but so far not this year. The overall pattern for the next week to 10 days looks like it will continue to be active, with two main low-pressure tracks setting up. The first is to our south, across the northern states; the second

Late last week and into the weekend we experienced a classic example of a small change in a weather system that ended up having a big impact on the weather. A large area of low pressure moved up and passed through our region late last week as forecast, but the system ended up being a

Last week’s forecast played out pretty much as expected, with the only deviation from the weather models coming from the timing of the cold front that pushed across Manitoba over the weekend. The original forecast had the front coming through late Sunday, but instead it came through Saturday afternoon. We also saw temperatures make it

It’s turning out to be quite the battle between cold air to our north and east and warm air to our west and south. Unfortunately, for those hoping for a return to mild melting weather, it looks like we stay on the cold side of things at least for the next week or two, as

Milder weather should win out

The fragile weather pattern I talked about last week seems to have stabilized for the time being, which means more nice winter weather ahead. For this forecast period, we’re kind of caught between well-above-average temperatures to our west, thanks to a strong area of low pressure off the coast of Alaska combined with a ridge

If you remember back to last week’s forecast I pointed out the confidence level was not that high. Well, the overall pattern proved to be pretty correct but, as they say, the devil is in the details. The large low over Hudson Bay formed as expected and did drag a cold front across our region
