MM’s Tues 5-Day: Watching for Record Highs

Today is Tuesday, October 13, 2026

.

So many folks saw the “space jellyfish” in the early morning sky this Tuesday! This picture was sent to me by Shirley England-Banks from the Rinnie Community of Cumberland County. These occur when a rocket is fired at the right time to meet up with the ideal atmosphere for this just as the sun is rising to light it up but not overwhelm it. Yeah, it doesn’t happen very often at all! I’ve tried to see these several times and was always disappointed….clouds, rocket delay, etc. But, if everything is just right…you get quite the sight. I’ll let you all know when we have a chance for this again but just know that they’re tricky to see! ha Still, I sure do regret not looking this morning!

MM’s Wx Analysis

The quiet weather the middle of the country was experiencing has come to an end. Today, severe storms threaten portions of the southern plains (in yellow). That unsettled weather extends to New England where it transitions to snow and ice in the colder air. Snowflakes are flying across portions of the Rockies, as well (blue shaded). Meanwhile, Hurricane Simon continues to flirt with west coast of Mexico and will continue to do so through Friday.

Yesterday the percent of snow cover across the U.S. was 4%.

Today that percentage is 5%.

MM’s Mon 5-Day: The First Frost in Sight!

The most active weather today will be across the Rockies, where flooding rainfall and heavy snows threaten various areas. Unsettled weather can also be found across the northern tier of the country. Meanwhile, high pressure is in control in the Southeast.

Snow accumulation probabilites show several areas of snow out west, as well as across northern New England.

This now begins the daily showing of U.S. snow cover. The percentages below show what percentage of land is covered in snow across the nation. It’s hard to believe it’s already time to start showing this again!

Yesterday the percent of snow cover across the U.S. was 1.6%.

Today that percentage is 3.8%.

MM’s Sun 5-Day: Isaias Slowly Moves Out

Today is Sunday, October 11, 2026

I plan to do a recap of Isaias soon. It was an interesting storm, for sure!

MM says….The back side of Isaias continues to bring shrs/drizzle today.

MM’s Wx Analysis

The remnants of Isaias are clearly seen in the eastern U.S., where widespread rain showers will persist. Severe storms may even occur for North Carolina and Virginia. Farther west, tropical moisture from “Rachel” has combined with a cold upper-level low to bring a variety of interesting weather from the Southwest to the northern Rockies. Flooding and even heavy snows are impacting various areas.

Farther south, you can see the symbol for Hurrican Simon as he threatens the western coast of Mexico as a high end cat 4 hurricane.

The season’s first winter storm is hitting western Montana! Look at those snow chances!

Today is the first day that I’ve seen the snow depth map show accumulation! Look toward western Montana! In fact, 1.6% of the nation has snow cover this morning!

Special Saturday Evening Update: Winds Subsiding

Today is Saturday, October 10, 2026

5:30 Update: A cool and stable layer of air here at the surface is keeping many of this evening’s wind gusts aloft, unable to reach the surface. Therefore winds have eased considerably this evening. The wind advisory is still in effect but surface observations around the region show little evidence for it to continue. In addition to our cool surface layer, the storm itself also continues to rapidly unwind. The combination of these two factors has therefore led to much more relaxed winds across the area than expected.

The flood watch was canceled earlier, the tornado threat has ended, and now winds are weakening. We’ve been on a good trend for the past few hours, for sure!

Showers will continue to be a threat through the night and at least the first half of Sunday. While the wind has decreased with this system, there are still plenty of showers leftover from it. It will take the system a while to move through the area, which means it will take a while for the showers to move out.

With winds relaxing and threats quickly subsiding, my concern is lower than ever!

I’ve updated the detailed forecast for this update.

I’ve also updated the hourly graph below to remove gusty winds.

I’m also adding tomorrow’s hourly forecast to give you a heads up for what to expect. Moisture will continue to impact the area in the form of scattered showers.

Thank You, Sponsors!
