It’s been a while since the radar has shown blue… some flakes likely mixing in under those lake effect showers off of the Georgian Bay. #ONStorm #ONwx

Possibly already seeing some mixing of either graupel or wet flakes in the Blue mountains under the heaviest of the Lake Effect precip. #ONStorm #ONwx

Pretty insane moment today where I watched a strike of lightning spark a massive grass fire. #txwx

All 3 ensembles show the coldest air of the season coming next weekend! The cold air is a lock, the chance of snow is to be determined!

The GFS is looking more on board today for the first flakes heading into next weekend. Looking like a real possibility with an early intrusion of the polar vortex. #ONStorm #ONwx
The end of next week is starting to look interesting. Models starting to show a lake effect outbreak, big question is how cold it gets. Could just get cold enough for the first flakes. #ONStorm #ONwx

Crazy shock ENLIL run from the M6.4 CME! If this pans out, impact could be late tomorrow night for NA 🙏

Here we see really gorgeous multi-colored aurora happening in Alkeevsky, Tatarstan, Russia. The geomagnetic latitude-equivalent of this in North America is around New York City, Boise or Chicago.

2 years now since the 10/10/2024 solar storm brought bright aurora, even into suburban areas across ON. Coincidentally, today we have a storm of similar strength unfolding. Clouds are a problem, but patches of thinner clouds could allow some visibility at times. #ONStorm #ONwx

The best visibility after dark will be in Eastern Ontario, before the cloud shield from the remnants of Isaias moves in. In SW and Central Ontario, visibility will be poorer but some of the thinner bands of cloud (white-gray) could be thin enough to allow colours to bleed through

Well, this was NOT expected! Depending on the orientation of the Bz and assuming the field strength holds, we could see G3 or even G4-level storming from this event! It’s too early to say what is in store for North America, but I’d have everything prepared for tonight just in case.

Hurricane #Isaias is legit still strengthening right now, latest recon pass has an extrapolated pressure reading of 951.5 and even more Category 4 supportive flight level wind barbs. Need to wait for our sonde to get a real pressure estimate, but I personally thought this would be up on the 960s or 970s by this point. So right now both the NOAA and Air Force planes have found C4 support.

Nice waterspout under the lake effect showers that developed over the Georgian Bay from the Blue Mountain camera at 11:30 AM. #ONStorm #ONwx

Terrifying footage of a violent tornado ripping through the city of Marsala in Sicily, Italy earlier this morning. Heavy damage reported in the area.
