Weekend Storm to Bring First Flakes For Some in New England, Great Lakes, Appalachians (FORECAST)
By Jon Erdman
Published: October 31,2014
Winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories are posted for parts of the Appalachians and snow advisories are in effect in the Great Lakes as the season's first snow targets those areas throughout the weekend.
As of Friday evening, up to 10 inches of snow fell in Presque Isle, Wisconsin and near Three Lakes, Michigan. Wind gusts up to 60 mph have also been reported in parts of Michigan, as well as a 69 mph wind gust in Chicago, Illinois.
(WINTER ALERTS: Appalachians | Great Lakes)
- Saturday: Additional snow will fall over the Appalachians and parts of the piedmont from east Tennessee and western North Carolina (possibly Upstate South Carolina) north to at least West Virginia. Some wet snow may also linger in parts of eastern Lower Michigan, Ohio, western Pennsylvania, western New York. Snow may develop later in parts of northern New England.
- Sunday: Snow, possibly heavy, in parts of northern New England and gusty winds are expected as well.
Heavy snow and high winds into Monday and early Tuesday in parts of Atlantic Canada, from New Brunswick to Labrador.
(FORECAST: Winter 2014-2015)
- Accumulating snow likely: U.P. and northern Lower Michigan, northern Wisconsin, Appalachians from West Virginia to east Tennessee, western North Carolina, and the mountains of northern New England. A few areas of the Appalachians may pick up 6 inches of snow, or locally more. Totals over 6 inches are possible in parts of Maine (northern or eastern).
- Some chance of accumulating snow: Parts of eastern Wisconsin, southern Lower Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, eastern Kentucky, western/northern Pennsylvania, western/central New York, piedmont of North Carolina, Upstate South Carolina,
- Some possible season's first flake cities: Marquette, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Charleston (WV), Asheville, Caribou (ME)
Be prepared for hazardous winter driving conditions, particularly on bridges or overpasses, if you have plans to check out the fall foliage in the Appalachians this weekend.
(FORECAST: Great Smoky Mountains N.P. | Shenandoah N.P.)
Also, with low pressure intensifying off the Eastern seaboard this weekend, the combination of strong winds and wet snow accumulations may lead to some power outages and downed trees/tree limbs in parts of the Appalachians and northern New England.
Persistent strong winds off Lakes Superior and Michigan will also whip up some impressive waves along each lake's south shore. Lakeshore flood advisories have been posted, including in the lakefronts of Chicago and Marquette, Mich.
Even without any snow, it will be chilly and raw, with highs in much of the Great Lakes and Northeast holding in the 40s, or even 30s in some spots.
(FORECAST: Cold Blast Ahead)
Detroit, coming off its snowiest season on record, typically sees its first measurable snow around November 15. According to the National Weather Service, measurable snow on Halloween has happened only once before in the Motor City's record, in 1993.

A near-record active 2014 Eastern Pacific hurricane season
Vance's formation gives the 2014 Eastern Pacific (east of 140°W) 20 named storms, 13 hurricanes, and 8 intense hurricanes in 2014. An average Eastern Pacific hurricane season sees 15 named storms, 8 hurricanes, and 3 intense hurricanes during the entire year. This year is the busiest year since 1992, which set records for total number of named storms (25), hurricanes (14), and intense hurricanes (8). If we include the Central Pacific between 140°W and 180°W, these record tallies in 1992 were 28 named storms, 16 hurricanes, and 10 intense hurricanes. The 2014 totals in the combined Eastern and Central Pacific basins so far are 21 named storms, 15 hurricanes, and 9 intense hurricanes (Genevieve did not become a hurricane and then major hurricane until it crossed from the Eastern Pacific into the Central Pacific, and Category 1 Hurricane Ana existed only in the Central Pacific, not the Eastern Pacific.) On average, we can expect one more named storm and no hurricanes in the Eastern Pacific in November; I expect we will get 1 - 2 more named storms--Winnie and Xavier--this year, after Vance.
Arabian Sea's Tropical Cyclone Nilofar destroyed by wind shear
In the Arabian Sea between India and Africa, Cyclone Nilofar has been shredded by high wind shear of 50 knots, and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center has issued its last advisory on the system. Nilofar's remnants will bring a few areas of heavy rain to the India/Pakistan border region.

Tropical Storm Nuri forms in Western Pacific
The Western Pacific has become active again, with the formation of Tropical Storm Nuri. Nuri is headed towards Japan, and may pass close enough to Japan next Thursday and Friday to bring them heavy rain.
Quiet in the Atlantic
The Atlantic is quiet today, with no areas of concern to discuss. None of the three reliable models for predicting tropical cyclone genesis predicts any development in the Atlantic over the next five days. With November at hand and El Niño-like atmospheric conditions in place, the odds of getting Tropical Storm Isaias before the end of the Atlantic hurricane season on November 30 are probably around 30%.

Cold to Rush Into East, Shock South This Weekend
By Alex Sosnowski, Expert Senior Meteorologist
November 1,2014; 12:56AM,EDT
The coldest air since April will blast into the Eastern states and will shock parts of the South this weekend.
In many areas, the cold air will be pushed along and enhanced by gusty winds.
The winds will be generated by a winterlike storm swinging off the mid-Atlantic coast and possibly taking a curved path back toward New England.
Gusts ranging between 35 and 50 mph will sweep from the southern Appalachians to the Carolina, Georgia and northeastern Florida coasts, initially. Next, the swath of strong winds will roll across the mid-Atlantic and New England later this weekend.
The combination of plunging temperatures, winds and other conditions will produce shockingly low AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures. Levels will dip into the teens over the Appalachians and New England to the 20s over the interior South and along the mid-Atlantic coasts and to the lower 30s in part of Florida.
College football fans heading to afternoon and evening games from the South to the Midwest and Northeast will want to dress warmly and wear layered clothing.
A hard freeze will visit areas from the Ohio Valley to the Appalachians this weekend. Freezing temperatures will touch areas from northern Texas to parts of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas and Virginia.

Although far from a freeze, record low temperatures will be challenged in South Florida and the Keys Sunday morning.
The worst of the wind and cold will ease in the South and parts of the Midwest by Sunday afternoon for NFL games. However, winds will continue howling in much of the Northeast.
Runners and spectators partaking in the New York Marathon on Sunday should be prepared for RealFeel Temperatures in the 20s at times and strong, gusty winds being funneled through buildings and across bridges.
Parts of New England on Sunday will not only have wind and cold to contend with, but also the potential for heavy snow.

12hSnow to Plaster Appalachians, New England as Cold Arrives
By Alex Sosnowski, Expert Senior Meteorologist
November 1,2014; 12:55AM,EDT
A storm riding a blast of cold air will unleash heavy snow on the central and southern Appalachians Saturday and will turn toward part of New England by Sunday.
Heavy wet snow and falling trees could block some roads in parts of the Appalachians.
Even in the absence of heavy snow for the major cities, including along the I-95 corridor, gusty winds can lead to travel problems for a time. Flight delays are possible in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York City and Boston.
After bringing some of the first snowflakes of the season to areas from Chicago and Detroit to Indianapolis and Cincinnati on Halloween evening, the storm will dive southward later Friday night and on Saturday.
Accumulating snow is in store for the mountains from southwestern Pennsylvania to northern Georgia.
The heaviest snow will fall in the area from western Maryland and West Virginia to western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee.
According to AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Elliot Abrams, "The highest elevations from West Virginia to North Carolina could pick up a foot of snow."
While the snow will melt or turn very slushy on major roads in the mountains, enough can fall to make some roads slippery.
Power outages are also possible in parts of the central and southern Appalachians as the weight of snow may bring down trees limbs and power lines. The risk will be highest for power outages as gusty winds accompany a push of cold air during and after the storm.
A few snowflakes may fall east of the Carolina mountains, reaching Charlotte and Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
"For some areas in the central Appalachians forecast to be hit with heavy snow with the storm this weekend, the last major early season storm to bring heavy snow was from Sandy in 2012," Abrams said.

There have been multiple snow events around Halloween over recent years in the Northeastern states, including the Nor'easter of 2011, Sandy in 2012 and the elevation snowstorm of 2008.
Farther to the north and east, it will be too warm for snow of significance on Saturday with this storm in the mid-Atlantic along the I-95, from Richmond, Virginia, to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York City and Hartford, Connecticut.
A wedge of dry air will also likely greatly limit snow showers from northern Pennsylvania to upstate New York and western and southern New England Saturday into Sunday.
However, as the storm strengthens off the mid-Atlantic coast, it will turn northward. A large part of Maine will catch the storm and cold air in such a way as to receive accumulating snow and strong winds.
People who live in or travel to northern Massachusetts and New Hampshire, which will be on the fringe of the snow, should also closely monitor the storm's progress and check for updates on AccuWeather.com.
Regardless of the amount of snow this weekend, cold, gusty winds will pick up Saturday and continue through Sunday in the Northeast. Winds will diminish by Sunday in much of the South, but not before producing record challenging cold as far south as the Florida Keys.
Gusts in excess of 40 mph are possible over the mountains, in open areas, between buildings and on some of the bridges. The strongest winds will affect eastern New England, where the storm will strengthen. Gusts in some coastal areas of New England may reach 60 mph.
This weekend, many areas in the South and Northeast will have their coldest weather since last April.
AccuWeather RealFeel ® Temperatures will dip into the teens over much of the Appalachians and into the 20s along much of Piedmont areas of the South and along the from the mid-Atlantic to New England in the wake of the storm.
Runners partaking in the New York Marathon on Sunday will have strong, gusty winds in their face for part of the route and low RealFeel Temperatures.

Tropical Storm Vance Strengthens, Will Threaten Mexico
By Kristina Pydynowski, Senior Meteorologist
November 1,2014; 12:54AM,EDT
Tropical Storm Vance continues to churn over the waters of the eastern Pacific Ocean after developing on Thursday afternoon.
The AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center is keeping a close eye on the system, located several hundred miles south-southeast of Acapulco.
Further strengthening will occur through this weekend as the tropical cyclone remains over the warm waters of the eastern Pacific and in an environment that lacks disruptive wind shear, which can shred apart tropical systems as evident with Tropical Cyclone Nilofar.
The system is likely to strengthen into a hurricane by Sunday.
Through this weekend, Vance will pose hazards only to shipping interests as it stays well south of mainland Mexico.
That will change next week as a turn to the north, then northeast is expected. The Mexican states of southern Baja California Sur, Sinaloa and Jalisco are being put on alert for a potential landfalling Vance around Tuesday of next week.
Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta lie within this zone.
While Vance will likely be past its peak intensity when it comes onshore, it should still bring a danger of flooding rain, mudslides, damaging winds and pounding surf.

Residents and visitors to Manzanillo should also keep a close eye on this developing system. A sharper turn to the northeast could put the city and its state of Colima in its path.
However, even if Vance remains to the north, Manzanillo would still face rough surf and potential downpours.
The impacts from Vance may not stop when it reaches the coast. Its heavy rain may get drawn across northern Mexico and into the U.S. states of Texas and New Mexico.
All residents and visitors in western Mexico should continue to check back with AccuWeather.com as Vance takes shape and more precise details on its impacts unfold.

Pacific Storm to Unload Rain, Snow in Thirsty California
By Brian Lada, Meteorologist
November 1,2014; 12:53AM,EDT
Rain will finally make a return to drought-stricken California by the weekend with rain reaching all the way down into Southern California.
Rain has made an appearance on multiple occasions across northern California during the month of October, but has very seldom made it far enough south to reach cities such as San Francisco.
Things will be different heading into the weekend, however, as a cold front swinging over the region brings rain to nearly all of the state with only the deserts in the southeast corner of the state remaining dry.
The timing of this rain may turn out to be problematic for trick-or-treaters heading out on Friday evening as the rain can dampen the Halloween festivity.
According to AccuWeather.com Western Weather Expert Ken Clark, the wettest weather on Friday evening for trick-or-treaters can be found from the South Central coast to much of the San Joaquin Valley and all the Sierra.
"In the Los Angeles area, the greatest amount of rain takes place after 9 p.m. but it could shower or lightly rain in spots," Clark continued.
The heaviest rain is expected to fall over the northern and central portions of the Golden State from Friday afternoon through Friday night before tapering off on Saturday.
San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Fresno and Redding are just a few Californian cities that can expect a steady rain to fall for a time as the front moves over the state.
Father south, the rain is not expected to be quite as heavy, but should sill enough to wet roads and dampen lawns around Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose and Long Beach.
Since some locations in Southern California have not received rain in quite some time, some roads may become extra slick due to the build up of oil on paved surfaces.
While rain is forecast to fall across the lower elevations, snow is expected over the mountains with upwards of a foot falling in portions of the Sierra.
Those in California looking to spend time in the outdoors this weekend can expect the rain to end by Sunday, allowing for more favorable conditions for activities such as running, hiking or golfing.

Ken Clark's Western Weather Blog
AccuWeather.com 2014-2015 Winter Weather Forecast
Interactive Radar
This rain is much needed for California as most of the state continues to experience an extreme drought.
According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, more than 37 million people are being affected by the drought in California, which is nearly all of the state's population.
It is unlikely that this single storm will have a major impact on the drought as it will take much more rain over a longer period of time to reduce its severity.
Fortunately, California is preparing to enter their rainy season, meaning that there will likely be more storms that bring more rain across the state in the upcoming months.
As stated in AccuWeather.com 2014-2015 U.S. Winter Forecast, "Southern California looks to fare better than its northern counterpart with slightly above-normal precipitation this season, especially in areas farther from the coast."

Oct 30POLL: Is Daylight Saving Time Still Necessary?
By Samantha-Rae Tuthill, AccuWeather.com Staff Writer
November 1,2014; 12:52AM,EDT
Daylight saving time will end at 2:00 a.m. this Sunday, Nov. 2, 2014, and it will be time to set the clocks back an hour.
While daylight saving time was started in the United States primarily for the sake of conserving energy, some argue that is not the case anymore.
History of Daylight Saving Time
The Standard Time Act was passed in 1918, which officially established time zones and incorporated daylight saving months into federal law. This was during World War I, when national efforts were made to conserve materials for the war effort. It was believed that if daytime hours could correspond better with natural light, fewer tasks would need to be done at night. Homes would need to use less energy to stay lit.RELATED:
Time to Move On? The Case Against Daylight Saving Time
Officials Stockpile Snow Removal Supplies Ahead of Winter
Cold, Windy Conditions in Store for New York City Marathon
After the war, daylight saving time was revoked. When food conservation became mandatory in the United Sates during World War II (rather than just being encouraged as it was in WWI), daylight saving time was once again instated. Referred to as "War Time," it spanned from early February until the end of September.
Conservation,
from fuel to food to silver, was stressed by Entente and Associated
power governments during WWI, as seen in this poster from the Canadian
Food Board. (Photo/Wikimedia Commons)After the war, "Peace Time" was back in effect and the issue of daylight saving time was handled on a local level. This led to a great deal of confusion as different locations were constantly operating at different times. The Uniform Time Act was passed in 1966 to solve the problem. States were given the option to opt out of daylight saving time if they passed proper ordinances.
With daylight saving no longer a federal mandate, some states have chosen not to observe it. Among the states that don't currently participate in daylight saving are Arizona and Hawaii, with several U.S. territories choosing not to follow it as well. Arizona has such intense heat in daylight hours that it's not considered a benefit for its residents to be out for as much of it as possible.
As for Hawaii, its location closer to the equator gives them more consistent days year round. They wouldn't be gaining, or losing, many daylight hours by observing the clock change.
Daylight saving time is observed in many countries all over the world, though the time frame for it varies. In the United States, it ran from the last Sunday in April to the first Sunday in October until the Energy Policy Act was passed in 2005. As of 2007, daylight saving now runs from the second Sunday in March until the first Sunday in November.
The argument continues over whether or not daylight saving time makes enough of an impact on energy costs to be worth observing.

13hSan Francisco: Drier Weather to Return Following Weekend Rain
By Michael Kuhne, AccuWeather.com Staff Writer
November 1,2014; 12:48AM,EDT
While a storm system will continue to bring much needed rain to the drought-stricken West, San Francisco will see drier weather early in the new week.
The majority of the rain will continue to fall in the region through Saturday morning, according to AccuWeather.com Meteorologist Brett Rathbun.
"A few spotty showers can linger into the day Saturday," he said.
Rainfall over San Francisco may total a half inch to an inch with the weekend storm. Cooler weather will also remain in the area through the weekend.
While temperatures will stay in the mid-60s, dominant sunshine will return to the Bay Area by Sunday.
Fans headed to Levi's Stadium to watch the 49ers take on the Rams will enjoy comfortable conditions. With kickoff slated for 1:05 p.m. PST, temperatures are expected to be near the 65 F mark.

Los Angeles: Drier Weather to Return Following Weekend Rain
By Michael Kuhne, AccuWeather.com Staff Writer
November 1,2014; 12:45AM,EDT
Drier weather will return for the new week following the much needed rain showers of the weekend.
Rain made a return to drought-stricken California late in the week, and will continue through the first part of the weekend, reaching all the way down into Southern California.
"A storm system is continuing to impact the West Coast where much needed rainfall will extend into all of California," AccuWeather.com Meteorologist Brett Rathbun said.
By late week, rain was falling over portions of central California, continuing in Southern California into Saturday morning.
"Los Angeles could see anywhere between 0.25 to 0.50" of rain from this system," Rathbun said.
Most of the rain activity will clear out Saturday, but the region could see a few rain showers during the afternoon, he added.
By Sunday, Los Angeles will see drier weather with temperatures nearing 70 F.

A chilly weekend is in store for the Detroit area as cold, Canadian high pressure builds into the region.
The first days of November will be brisk and cold across the area before more seasonable weather returns early in the new week.
Temperatures during the day will remain in the low 40s, before sinking to near freezing overnight.
"Still a bit of a gusty breeze in store for Saturday and with highs only reaching into the 40s, AccuWeather RealFeel® temperatures will be in the 30s most of the day," AccuWeather.com Senior Meteorologist John Feerick said.
After a cold night with a widespread freeze Saturday night, Sunday will still be cold, but the nicer day of the weekend with less wind and sunshine, he added.
