Beware the Ides of March!

With the extreme cold remaining in Canada and extreme warmth invading most of the US, it seems like we have a chance of a significant severe weather season simply due to the mixing of extremes. EURO and GFS already showing a potent system in about a week

Yes, indeed. This severe threat will then likely be followed by a potent cold shot as we approach the Ides, which would more than likely be the last hard freeze threat for much of the SE (especially S of NC). So, a highly volatile period to say the least is in the cards per model consensus! Not boring for sure.

 The WPO is currently being forecasted to dip to its lowest in March since 2017! That lead to Carolina snow (flurries even to ATL) and hard freezes down to N FL!

WPO forecasted plunge next week:

Yep- I see nothing boring about the upcoming pattern with a classic battleground developing between the extremes and an active storm track. Looks like a lot of potential for powerhouse spring systems in mid March
