Philadelphia Week Weather Outlook- Sunday
There has been an interesting pattern change developing. Last week, the GFS model had shown a rather uninteresting pattern for this week, with continued mild weather. Over recent days, the GFS has shown a significant pattern change as increasingly cold weather moving in for us both early in the week and especially by next weekend. In fact, only the recent model runs have shown temps to hit freezing for tonight. By next weekend, the weather map is looking incredibly winter-like.
For the period Thursday through Saturday and possibly Sunday, the GFS carves out an extremely amplified upper pattern, spawning deep coastal low pressure development for Thursday and suggesting that the upper low might close off for the weekend. Either way, it looks like we're headed for windy and wintery cold weather for the end of this week. We might even see some snow showers! Stay tuned.
Climate Forecast Discussion: Solar cycle 24 continues to ramp up. Total solar irradiance has increased. Add this increased thermal background to the greenhouse warming and I expect to see much milder temps this fall and winter. Additionally, the increased energy available for low pressure development will likely result in some additional monster storms. Rain or ice storms are more likely than snow for us.
