February 25 Warmer Days With Spotty Rain Showers And Next Big Cool Down In Sight
February 25, 2025
Tuesday Morning Report
Do you remember the active winter weather pattern we had most of this month? There was a storm to track every 2 to 3 days! Now, we have a pattern with warmer air but a cold front every 2 to 3 days.
These cold fronts will look impressive on the weather map, but as they cross the mountains, they will lose some energy. So we track spotty showers that break up and may not reach everyone… The higher chance will be in the western and northern hills.
Our next surge of colder air will arrive later this weekend. A larger pattern shift will be attempted next and maybe the last Polar Push during the second week of March.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
