Kennedy predicts hot and dry conditions from the west will shift eastward later this week, allowing for a noticeable warm-up and shift towards spring-like conditions.
The powerful March storms that drenched Hawaii produced more than 2 trillion gallons of rain and pushed precipitation levels to as much as 3,000% above normal in a 14-day period for this time of year.
As we navigate the ebb and flow of New York City's February weather, it is essential to stay informed about the changing patterns and potential disruptions. The National Weather Service has issued detailed forecasts across the boroughs, with cloudy skies and rain likely to be the prevailing theme as we move through the week. Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island are all bracing for a mix of showers and potential snow as temperatures hover around the low 40s.
The first wave is underway Friday and stays most productive through Saturday for the Alberta Rockies, with guidance tightly clustered on onset timing but looser on how far west the better snowfall bands reach.
Most resorts should see firm starts and softer afternoons through Monday, then a mostly moisture-starved cold front brings a brief cooldown, gusty west winds, and only spotty light snow before warmth rebuilds late week. Confidence is highest from Sunday morning, March 8, through Friday night, March 13, with next weekend still leaning warm and mostly dry but carrying a low-end chance of light snow in the far north.
Mostly dry weather holds across the European Alps through Friday evening, with only minor refreshers for a few western resorts before a broader but much less certain storm signal arrives over the weekend and early next week. Confidence is strongest from Saturday, March 7, through Friday evening, March 13, when the range stays in a weak pattern and most terrain sees little more than scattered light snow.
WeatherA multi-day storm cycle targets the Alps this week, then reloads with colder air next weekend while snow chances continue into midweek. The western Alps look like the main winners overall, with frequent snowfall pulses and the deepest totals at higher elevations. Snow levels run high enough at times midweek to keep lower villages on the edge of wet snow or rain, then they drop sharply heading into the weekend.
