This Upcoming Pattern Will Completely Change Our Weather...

Added: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]An Omega block is forming, setting up some interesting weather over the coming days. So, let's walk through the details. Here is the 500 millibar, and you can kind of really see what we're talking about. This is a pretty significant trough that's diving down into areas across the West. And there's also another significant trough that's diving down into the New England. But in the middle, this deepening ridge of high pressure is going to be lifting well north up into Canada, setting the stage for some record-breaking temperatures across the north and even into southern Canada over the coming days. So, if we take a look at the overall vorticity, you can see some of these spins in the atmosphere. Here's the trough that's going to be diving in across the west.

[00:00:45]And as it ejects northbound, it's going to be lifting northeast, eventually setting up some much needed rain across Montana. But before that happens, that's going to kickstart the south s subtropical jetream further south. And it's going to be some pretty gusty winds as the dry line gets going this afternoon into West Texas and western Oklahoma. while we have another trough that's getting its act together across New England. And then in the middle, you got the dry slot. There's nothing to speak of that's happening across the upper Midwest, a good part of the Ohio Valley and portions of the Mid-Atlantic.

[00:01:21]There's the setup this afternoon. Things get going likely about 4:00 in the in the afternoon through about 9. So things could get really bumpy as that dry line gets activated and some of these wind gusts could be approaching some 70 if not even 70 m five miles an hour there into West Texas. We're talking about uh areas of Midland back into the Leach region getting into the Amarella area.

[00:01:47]We could be looking at some very significant winds. So definitely be on high alert if you live across that region. But you can see what we're talking about. It's just much cooler air that's coming in across the west. Fairly kind of an unusual type setup, right?

[00:02:01]We've got trough out west, trough out east, and look at the dominating ridge that's not only building across the south, but lifting well north. And it doesn't stop there. It goes even well north into Canada. We're talking a good part of Canada as we're even some record-breaking temperatures into the 90s, if you can believe that. Let's see what we're talking about. These are record record highs today. Of course, you got 90s across Texas. That's not unusual. But what is unusual, we're talking 90s, even some mid 90s across Montana and back into Minnesota. And that would be hot enough for record temperatures. But notice out west how pleasant it is. You're talking in the 60s this afternoon across portions of Washington and Oregon. Widespread 60s and 70s. Look, even going further south down into Arizona. It's hardressed to even find it a 90 degree temperature for the entire state. Yeah, fairly unusual when we're talking it's hotter in Montana and hotter in Minnesota than it's going to be in late May for areas of Phoenix this afternoon. And here's the setup because we're we're looking at this uh overall 500, you know, wind speed anomalies. I think this is when the jetream kind of really kick kickstarts. Of course, it activates the dry line today, but that as this swings or swings up and into areas m Wyoming and back through the Dakotas, we're going to be looking at some more possibly severe weather and some very high winds going to be setting up for Saturday. So, we could be looking at a definitely wind maker as it gets going.

[00:03:40]Of course, the dry line will be activated again, but we'll be looking at a lot of heavy rain, you know, rainfall and some higher winds in the heat of the afternoon. heat driven, you know, storms. But I think as that trough ejects out into the into areas of the Dakotas, I think that's going to really activate and even probably going to be upgraded to an enhanced risk as we get deeper into the day tomorrow. So definitely be on high alert if you c if you live across Nebraska back through Rapid City. Things could definitely get pretty bumpy again across the 4:00 to say 9:00 time frame. There are some of the winds on the latest high resolution data and shows you what we're talking about as the dry line gets acted this afternoon. And then we have that swirl in the atmosphere that it ejects through areas of Utah back into Wyoming and gets gets into Montana. We also have that other trough that's be digging down here into the New England states. So yes, they could be approaching upwards of 75 miles an hour. Kind of maxing out this afternoon, both afternoons as we head into Friday into Saturday. So overall for the next 20 48 hours, the rain prospects looks like this. So we'll have that trough that comes in off across the wax. We'll have the dry line getting activated. It's mainly some big-time wind producers, but as it ejects and as we get into the day on Saturday, we could be looking at some heavier rain look unfolding back into Nebraska through the Dakotas. And much needed rain is going to be lifting into areas of Wyoming and especially there into Montana. You've been really dry, folks.

[00:05:20]And so, this is a good sign to see one to two inches of rain across almost the entire state of Montana. Of course, you'll have instability. And there's the dry slot that we're been talking about in the upper Midwest and a good part of the Ohio Valley as well. And of course, the Southeast continues to eat away at the drought they've been under for an extended period of time. But as we head into Sunday, you can see what we're talking about going into Saturday into Sunday night into Sunday morning with that lowle swirl continue to spin across Nebraska and much of Montana that will continue to p produce some heavier rains and some higher wind gust into the day on Sunday as this keeps going and adding to those totals across Montana. Right.

[00:06:08]And then as the ridge of high pressure will really start to build and accelerate and I think we max out with the Omega block probably around June 1st time frame while underneath you're still under the rainy prospects across areas of uh you know Arkansas back into Missouri through a good part of Tennessee as well as into uh you know Mississippi and into Alabama and Georgia. This is a good sign to see for Georgia and much of Florida as they'll be taking that th those rains all day long, you know, considering the drought conditions that they've been under. But I think as we get into Monday, that's when we'll start to see the Omega block max out, if you will, and we'll start to see the, you know, continued trough across the Northeast. We could be looking at a little backdoor front that's going to be trying to sneak across the south. We'll have to watch for that. But the ridge will be dominating across a good part of the middle part of the country and then again well north. But notice the difference, folks. Now that trough out west is going to be sneaking back, you know, lifting trending back westward.

[00:07:10]That's going to allow the ridge unfortunately to build back in across the west and those temperatures are going to soar into next week and back into those triple digits for Arizona. So enjoy the cooler weather while you have it. But what's also interesting is the tropics. Yes, this is actually tropical season out there in the Pacific. It officially started the middle of May and we've got our first little system that we have to look at. It's a 50% probability the National Hurricane Center uh put out there over the next seven days. So I do feel we're going to be looking at a very active time with the El Nino building as we've been discussing. And I think with all the warmer anomalies across a good part of the Pacific, I think we're just going to have one system after another that we'll be talking about out there in the Pacific is expecting a very active hurricane season, but also things starting to get interesting on the Atlantic side. I don't think anything's going to form tropical, but we've got tropical moisture really building and coming out of the Caribbean and lifting into the Gulf, and that is going to be pushing inland as we head into Tuesday as we'll have to watch for this uh backdoor front, if you will. already the cooler anomalies across the northeast, but this will try to sneak in across the southeast and eventually into the southern plains starting on Tuesday night while we're waiting for a cold front. So, this is the setup for Tuesday. So, remember, as the as the trough moves out back west, this will allow the ridge of high pressure to build back underneath and that's exactly what transforms into air into that Tuesday time frame with high pressure dominating across the west. high pressure over Colorado and portions of New Mexico. But notice the low underneath. That's the subtropical jetream starting to get active again as we head into Tuesday. So, as the high lifts out, as the high pressure lifts back out west, it'll allow this uh subtropical jet to get activated underneath and this will allow more rain to start entering the picture during the day on Tuesday, starting in Texas. And I think that will continue really for much of next week.

[00:09:27]as this trough that you can see here really starts to dig in and this will start eating away. So I think the rain cooled air will bring a lot of these areas back into the 80s for highs for much of next week and also bring the rain back in the picture. So Florida back gets back into the action. Much of the southeast gets back into the action.

[00:09:47]All pretty much all of Louisiana, pretty much all of Texas and half of New Mexico as we get into areas on Tuesday. And I think that only extends into next week.

[00:09:57]But look at the drought. Notice the difference. Notice the eating away of some of the drought areas across Texas, especially down south. If you looked at this map a month ago for southern Louisiana, they were under an extreme and an exceptional drought. That's all been erased, right? So you'll start to see over the coming months, you know, these areas right here, these oranges and reds and deep reds start to lessen, right? you'll start to see a lot of that start to eventually go away over a period of months and months. But notice notice where the drought is starting to build. That's going to be across a good part of the upper Midwest. I mean, these areas were soaked for a while. Now, it's been a while since we've had some decent rain up here, and it's going to be a while. And I think this drought is only going to extend and deepen as we get back deeper into the months ahead for the rest of the year with the El Nino really starting to build. But further south, it's all about the rain, folks.

[00:10:54]And the subtropical jet is going to be alive and a well as we head into next week. And it only extends from there.

[00:11:00]This upper level low will likely get trapped over Texas and kind of rain itself out over the coming days. So, it won't rain all day every day. It's not going to be a complete wash out, but these are more mainly daytime heat induced thunderstorms, showers, and thunderstorms. So, you'll have a pleasant morning and then as we get into the afternoon, you'll start to see the clouds building. you know, start to see the humidity rise. And then as we head towards maybe 3:00, you'll start to see the atmosphere really start to bubble up and start pushing these scattered activity across the regions and probably max out somewhere in the vicinity of 6:00 time frame and then the rain cooled air will get intrused. So you get 15 to 20°ree drop and then it lands for a pleasant evening. So it's kind of like summertime pattern with the low steering currents. Once this once these things get going, they can be big- time rain producers because there's nothing to steer the winds aloft. And so that way at the surface they're very slow movers.

[00:11:57]You know, 5 10 miles an hour. And that's how you that's how you get 2 in of rain.

[00:12:01]And then 3 miles down the street, your neighbors like, "Well, what rain? It didn't rain at my house. Nothing's happening." That's the nature of the beast with some of the summertime thunderstorms. So that just continues on Saturdays. All right. So that uh that system you can see it's not again it's not going to rain all day every day but now we're talking areas of Georgia gets back into the picture. New South Carolina we'll we'll have this tropical moisture just kind of swirling down here and eventually it's going to be sneaking into a good part of Georgia and and kind of taking over much of Florida as it's going to just kind of wrap around. So it's again low steering currents. It's not going to have anywhere to push this moisture out of here for an extended period of time. So, it's just going to get trapped and then kind of rain itself out on a daily basis and reload again as we get into the heat of the afternoon, pulse down in the evening, nicer mornings, and then come back again for the afternoon.
