The spectacularly cool and dry air we are experiencing in Miami today was over the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands six days ago. Thank you Alaska!

One storm exits, another slams the coast. Two storms are β€œdancing” around each other or better known as the fujiwhara effect. #bombcyclone #wawx

As quickly as the snow happened, it’s changing to all rain across Northern Wisconsin. Mild mid-level temperatures (from the Atlantic Ocean) is the culprit. #wiwx

Over 700,000 customers without power in Washington this morning. Most notably in the two most populated counties in the state where almost half the counties are without electricity. #wawx #bombcyclone

Anchorage officially had 3.0" of snow yesterday. We have now passed the horrible winter of 2014-15 (25.7" vs 25.1"). Although the winter of 2015-16 (38.1") was MUCH worse for poor snow depth and icy conditions. @alaskawx.bsky.social

Super #TyphoonKongRey is a beast! It is headed right towards Taiwan and would be the third typhoon to impact the country this year. The eye is over 60 miles wide!
