Sandy’s torrential rains missed U.S. heartland

By
Reuters / Recent snow, rain and cooler temperatures helped to ease suffering in some drought-stricken areas of the U.S., but others saw conditions worsen. Monster storm Sandy, which devastated the eastern U.S. with heavy rains and high winds, had little to no impact on the driest areas of the American heartland. Indeed, the worst level

The Weather Underground Internet site gives amateurs the tools they need to create their own localized forecasts

It’s been awhile since I’ve discussed weather-related websites, and I figured it was about time to share one of my favourites — The Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com). The Weather Underground is literally the first-ever Internet weather website, and I think it is the best weather website out there. I figured the best way to introduce you

Cold and wet – new pattern?

By
In the last issue we took a look ahead to see what the winter might have in store for us. In this issue we’re going to take our monthly look back at the weather and then look only a little ahead to try and see what November might bring us weather-wise. Well, I guess we

Flood or drought: Which should we expect?

By
Recent rains have been more than welcome here in the Red River basin after a summer of drought-like conditions in much of the basin and surrounding region. Given the large floods of 1997, 2010, 2011 — and smaller floods in between — you would never have thought we would be looking so anxiously to the

Problems trying to create winter forecast

By
Last issue we took a quick look at the different factors that must be taken into account when trying to create a long-range winter weather forecast. For those of you who missed the article, I think it’s easy to summarize it by saying — trying to make a long-range forecast is so complicated that you

Quieter and milder weather

An interesting note to start off this forecast is that if the weather models are correct, areas as close to us as Thunder Bay will be feeling the effects of the remnants of Hurricane Sandy, as the system stalls out over Eastern Canada this week. For us here in Manitoba, this will block a ridge
