The polar vortex sits just to our north and at times the chill dips south, toward us such as today, Friday. But very quickly today's cold air retreats.
Next week, will feature cold air and between the 22nd to the 26th, there are two chances for snow. The Euro early today had an impressive storm at the end of next week. But at 216 hours ahead, it is just a fantasy at this point. You cannot believe anything unless it gets within the 3 to 5 day forecast range.
This has been a very tough winter to forecast and all of the computer models have had poor performance.
We are STILL fighting a powerful Pacific jet stream wind and a high pressure ridge over the southeast US. For now though, the cold to our North will win out. The Polar Vortex which belongs near the North Pole, is now sending down our temperatures. New England especially, is under the Polar Vortex chill. Just being a little further north, with less influence from the Atlantic Ocean, makes New England a home for North Pole air masses.
