Portland Snow!
I try and tell people that the only way to get out of these deep freezes that you are in is to have a system move on through to scour out the cold air. This is the typical snow storm. High pressure to the east with very cold air, low pressure from the south with warmer wet conditions. South of salem will be nice and rainy quickly. However that good ol' gorge acts to keep the rest chilly. Skyline, you will warm up before lincoln will, its just how these work. It is called an inversion, cold wind will pump out of the gorge and keep places liek PDX and troudale cold whereas West hills will pick up a south wind and warm up. Nevertheless, all of portland will see snow tonight and tomorrow, followed by sleet and possible freezing rain. I say in total about 3-4 inches before rain comes later saturday night. Warmer system Monday should melt most of the snow! :( REMEMBER, West and High elevation=warm and East and low elevation=cold.

STORM UPDATE
For east coasters-
Deep low pressure over wisconsin now will progress NE into our area. Will hit chuck first with heavy snow fall. 2-4 inches over night for you kiddo. Transition to rain tomorrow though as you pick up a South wind after the Low passes. The storm will progress into the Vermont region wendesday morning. SHOULD BE VERYYYY EXCITING!!!

Week of the 7th forecast
Snow EVERYYYYWHERE except here in Vermont! Killing me. Literally everywhere I do forecast for saw snow flakes yesterday including PORTLAND OREGON! Crazy!
Portland
STill under the influence of this cold jet stream, but when were get this northerly pattern, not much in the way of significant snowfall. The low that slid down last night and this morning brought snow flakes a possible dusting in some places, but nothing major. This cool pattern will continue for most of the week, with temperatures right above freezing with mostly sunny skies, tomorrow most of the city wont even get above freezing. Temperatures in oregon are close to that of Anchorage Alaska. Pretty amazing. Have a good week and dress warmly!
Utah
Very low jet stream is allowing for chillllyyy temperatures. The low that brought snow to portland last night and mainly Idaho will turn east monday and give you a good amount of snow with high temperatures right around freezing and then cooling off tuesday to 24. WIll remain below freezing for the remainder of the week with scattered snow showers.
Denver
The snow from N utah turns to the east today and gives you snow showers. I'd say about 2 inches and maybe even more in some areas. Temperatures will be in TEENS! for much of the week. The low pressure system that brought portland snow will turn east and come into your neck of the woods Monday night and bring a couple more inches of snow. After that system clears your area you should clear out and "warm" up to the mid 20s thursday and gradual warm up to 40 by saturday. Enjoy the FREEeEZZZING cold temps.
(JUST REALIZED IITS YOUR BREAK SO NO ONE IS THERE!) DUHHHH DANNY
Cuse
Lake affect snow today will bring snow showers but above freezing temperatures cause little sticking to occur. Continued lake affect in place until a low moves NE from the oklahoma. This will bring a wintery mix and snow showers. Temperatures will be in the mid 30s for the week. Still hoping for that big snow storm!
ALbany
A weak high pressure is over the NE and allow mostly clear skies with highs right around 40. NExt big system moves in on wednesday with a snow rain mix. more updates this later on the week.
Boston
High pressure of NE will give some sunshine today, however, a weak system drops in tomorrow night and could give a few flakes. The main system is wedneday as a deep low tracks from the south to give a rain show mix with breezy conditions. i think in boston this will be mainly rain as we get more of the onshore flow, but possible snow in the morning hours.
Vermont
Gorgeous day today with highs around 36 then tomorrow I think we will get our first measurable snowfall in BTV. A weak system from canada is dropping into our area tomorrow after 2pm into the night hours. I'd say snowfall max will be 1-2 inches but mainly under that. After tomorrow we will have a break tuesday and then get hit with a pretty strong system. Tracking this has been difficult. As the storm approaches we will have only snow as we have a N wind, but once we get the low parrallel with BTV it will turn to rain as we pick up a S wind. Into the night hours it will return back to snow HOPEFULLY. This should give the mountains what they need. After wedneday looking a few other poential systems a nd highs not reaching freezing.
Fun Fact of the Day-
Denver could be reaching its RECORD low temperature tonight with a low of 3 degrees! BRRRRRR

December 4th weekend forecast
Hey everyone! Finals are coming up and the work is piling up! Biggest game in duck history tonight and that will not help my work load. Ha lets look at the forecast.
Portland-
Winter weather pattern we are going to get into. When the jet stream drops out of alaska it means cold and usually dry weather. For tomorrow we still have a strong ridge above us then into the weekend we get a weak bands of moisture moving in from the north. Combine with unusally cool temperatures, snow flakes could be seen, but nothing big at all. High temperatures will be in the upper 30s in the metro area which is very cold for this time of year. We are going to get lows around 30 so any light moisture that does come from this drier pattern will fall as snow come night time. Let me know! I'll keep my eye out as always and give updates.
UEGE
GAMEDAY! Kick off temp 43 with clear skies! DUCKS 38 Beaves 28 in a dog fight! GO DUCKKKKSSSSS!
Utah
with that sagging jet stream you guys are getting some very cold temperatures. Highs today will reach 29 with lows in the teens and below. tomorrow will warmer with a high around freezing then cloud cover comes in tomorrow night so temps will stay around 20 for tomorrow night. This pattern, like i said to portland I usally very dry. This weekend a system from canada will drop south to give snow showers. High temperatures will remain around freezing with mostly cloudy skies. Lows will be around 20! Have fun in the snow! jealous : (
Denver
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Today a high of 20 with a low of -1! I don't think Ive ever been in such cold weather. The jet stream will move more to the north to warm you up a significant amount tomorrow as you will reach 35 then continue to warm up saturday to 39. Like utah, a low system will come in later for you but from canada sunday. This will be bring snow showers for sunday and a high of 24 as you cool back off. Interesting stuff! Have fun!
NY
Just got hit with some heavy rain in the NE. For chuck, you will see some lake affect moisture for most of the week. this will mean snow for the night time hours, and rain during the day. Sunday looks like the coldest day so that will be the best time for snow. Fish, you will be mostly sunny from here on out with highs around 40 and lows around 25 after tonight. Its crazy how much affect the lake has on the weather. Enjoy the warm weather today, looks like fish will be close to hitting 60 which is relatively unheard of for this time of year.
Boston
Can you say record warm? it is currently 69 at logan international which shatters the old record of 64. We had that strong tropical moisture system move from the north and warm south winds and then as the low became parallel with the high off the coast we got that warm east wind as well. Very warm and crazy. Tomorrow you will "cool" off to 50 and then 40 saturday and sunday with a chance of rain or snow saturday. Pretty crazy how warm this system was.
Vermont
WOw, who say that rain this monring. It was dumping. From that system we picked up close to an inch of rain and some very WARM temperatures. Currently we are 54 degrees which is 2 degrees short of the RECORD. I think we will break that unless the winds shift in time. for the rest of the week and into the weekend we will slowly cool off. Tomorrow high around 45 and maybe a lingering shower and then saturday and sunday we drop to the mid 30s with lows in the mid 20s. I WANT SNOW! On the NAM model it looks like 8 days out we will see some cold weather and then warm back up : ( Looks like I could leave for winter break without seeing a big snow storm!
Fun fact:
As sea temperatures continue to warm with global warming, these tropical disturbances will affect the NE more frequently, messing up ski seasons.
