Weather pattern set to get active again, with three storms in the pipeline. I address which storm has the most potential and why...
A big thanks to the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association for having me open their general session this morning! Great turnout, great people, and always good to be in Texas. Also, a MAJOR March storm is set to move through the Rockies and Plains late this weekend and early next week. EXTREME fire danger and blizzard conditions will occur for some...
A big thanks to the Texas Agricultural Cooperative Council for having me today! Short range weather update as we transition back to some winter next weekend. More worries about eastern New Mexico and western Texas.
Not a fun episode for me to do, but sometimes we have to have tough conversations. We likely have a short window to capitalize on the weather pattern, because I dont like what I am seeing down the road...
Big shoutout to the folks in the Texas Panhandle that have been dealing with the historic wildfire outbreak. Also, I focus on the pattern setting up for March, and why it could lead to an active severe storm season.
More thoughts on the long range / seasonal forecast. My focus is on who this El Nino has failed, and why it could be an immediate problem for some, and a future problem for others. Listen up and beware...
Lots to go through in this episode, from the relaxation of the current weather pattern to what could likely be a very active spring weather pattern. I also discuss on the ongoing transition from El Nino to La Nina, and what that could mean for later this year. Big shoutout to the Montana Stockgrowers, the Colorado Livestock Association, and to the Texas and Southwest Cattle Raisers...
I talk about the major storm set to deliver very heavy rain and heavy wet snow to parts of New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma. This is exactly what we need in these areas this time of year!
Recapping the amazing rain and snow impacted the region Friday and Saturday. I also address whether the pattern will remain active. Plus, some additional thoughts on the ENSO transition and PDO...
A gigantic thank you to all that attended and made the Desert Farmer Meetup successful. An update on the storm headed our way this weekend...
Here in Liberal, Kansas today for the Desert Farmer Meetup. We also have a big storm in the pipeline for next weekend, but the details are far from certain. Some additional long range thoughts...
Detailing the upcoming Desert Farmer Meetup in Liberal, Kansas and talking about the upcoming pattern change that could lead to a significant storm in early February.
Detailed look at the Arctic air that will encompass the Plains for the next several days. Potential pattern change late month into February that would bring better moisture prospects back to the region.
An update on the major storm set to impact the Plains, and what lies ahead thereafter. Winter is here to stay!
Talking about two storms in the pipeline, including blizzard potential with the first storm. Arctic air invades late next week and weekend, providing the coldest air of the season for many of us. Buckle up, winter is coming!
Just wrapping up all the significant weather that occurred in 2023, previewing more active weather as we start January...and giving a big thank you to all of you!
A disjointed storm system will exit the Rockies and push into the Plains. This provides a narrow window of opportunity for some wind driven snow for some areas of the Western High Plains. Listen for specifics!
Recap of the amazing rain and snow we saw last week. The next storm in the pipeline... And the importance of "letting the game come to you" right now... Be well!
Just a short update on the big moisture producing storm set to impact the western and southern Plains this week. Lots to be excited about!
A very important update on the ENSO transition that is likely to happen in 2024. Plus, I talk about a BIG STORM set to impact parts of the western/southern Plains this week. Rain and snow will occur, with some areas picking up a lot of much needed moisture! Yay!
Speaking at the Montana Grain Growers Association annual meeting. Always great to get up to Montana! Also, focusing on the MJO pattern for the last 3 weeks of December and what it could possibly mean.
I talk about the upcoming shot of wintry weather, that I eluded to about three weeks ago. Some decent snow possible for some of us, and cold weather likely for all of us. Also, more thoughts on what could shape up to be a wintry December... Happy Thanksgiving!
Looks like a storm is brewing for some of us later next weekend. Will it be rain or snow? I also provide an El Niño update, and how it impacts my long range forecast thoughts.
I give you three local beef processors to check out. Supporting quality people that produce a quality product is a big deal to me. Watch out for late November and early December, as it looks ACTIVE! The 2024 Desert Farmer Meetup is scheduled! Shoutout to the Tregellas family!
I address the quiet pattern now, and a potential return to active weather late this month with a possible MJO pulse. Also, I talk about some things tied to El Niño that I think are VERY important in how we view the next several months.
Addresses the recent beneficial rain and potential frost/freeze through Saturday morning. Looking at the importance of the MEI and the historical context of the current ENSO event. Could we have a wintry December? And a big shoutout to Blake OHare from Clovis, New Mexico!!!
Just a short update on rain chances and something that drives our weather patterns, OTHER than El Niño. Also, big shoutout to Brad Heffington from Littlefield, Texas.
I talk rain chances for the next 7-10 days and the good and bad messaging that has occurred with El Niño. Also, be cautious about making generalizations about how we start 2024 and how we will finish.
I talk about the health scare I had earlier this week, the recent cooler weather and rain, some drought folklore, and how grateful I am for your listenership.
The first episode of the #DesertFarmer Podcast. I talk about the mission of this podcast, rain this upcoming week, and some long range forecast info. Been wanting to do this for a very long time and Im super excited about it! Let it rip!
