Welcome to Great Atmosphere. Today we take it back to simpler times and do an old-fashioned top down analysis of the general synoptic pattern and how we would make inferences to justify it's short-to-medium term evolution. We talk why it's suddenly so cold, how wet the beginning of the weekend is expected to be, and then how great of a threat next week's hot topic severe event is looking about a week out. We end on a temperature analysis and a reminder we're under 20 days away from the Great 2024 Total Solar Eclipse! Thanks for tuning in!
