Charging arctic front - where will it stop?
|
In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field. |
A massive cold front, with a more than 50-degree drop in temperatures behind it, is currently plowing across the midwest. Again, nothing depicts this better than a surface observation map (temperatures are in red):

Models have shown that this frontal boundary is supposed to slow down and stall as it crosses the WV state line later this evening. Whether it does or not will have huge implications on our forecast for the next few days. A sharp transition zone between above/below freezing exists with this front - and if this thing gets far enough past us, we'll be plunged back into winter here in Charleston, with snow, freezing rain and sleet plaguing the roads off and on for the rest of the week. As it is, southeast Ohio, eastern Kentucky and the westernmost counties of WV are already under winter weather advisories and warnings for icing and/or several inches of snow and sleet.
The models keep inching the 'winter zone' toward us with each successive run, making me increasingly concerned that we won't escape being affected here in Charleston. We're above the 60°F mark already this morning (thanks to downsloping southeasterly winds), but if the front passes through later today, that will be gone quickly.
I had considered a short chase westward to cover this, but with Charleston so close to getting involved in it, I'm opting to stay here.
