❗️❗️With the cold weather approaching, lets do what we can to help prevent pipes from freezing. Give us a call/message to get your pipes wrapped up❄️❗️❄️❗️
By now you likely know arctic air is on the table for late next week as we enter Christmas weekend.
I'm reasonably confident the cold air is coming, but just how cold and whether or not we get wintry precipitation are still in question.
I've posted for you here the low temperatures for next week projected by our two best computer models, the American GFS and the European ECMWF. The American model is the colder solution at this time.
In case you're wondering, ahead of the February 2021 winter storm both of these models were significantly colder than they are depicting now. Interestingly enough, there was even a time when they backed off that the arctic chill would even make it here! Eventually they came to their senses and the rest is history.
My point in sharing this is that even our best computer models will struggle with how to handle the cold air in the days ahead, and our job as meteorologists is to figure out what projections they offer up are actually useful to give you the most accurate prediction.
More to come in the days ahead.
Stay tuned...
