We've got a long way to go to reach ice coverage highs in 1979, 1994 or 2014. Ice cover is climbing rapidly, but I suspect that climb is driven by Lake Erie closing up so fast. Unsure if the other lakes will be so quick, especially after being so warm.

Does anyone know anyone at the NOAA ARL/who has anything to do with the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data?
It looks like the 1948 and 1949 data have been mislabelled as 2048 and 2049 - noticed when running HYSPLIT trajectory models.
I've sent an email via the general NOAA research office, but not […]

Forecast confidence continues to grow that a significant snowstorm will impact a much of the Carolinas into Southeast Virginia this weekend, with greater uncertainty farther up the coast.

My "more science-y less funny" talk is this morning at 9:15 CT, Room 342D in the @amshydrology.bsky.social conference. But given the 2025 flooding events, it is very relevant, and NOAA NCEI will continue to monitor and classify them post-mortem ams.confex.com/ams/106ANNUA...

I would like to request meteorologists start producing protest segments for their local news—Pinpoint weather for the protest events. Every taxpayer dime spent on ICE should be redirected back to NOAA, NSF and scientific institutions.
