February forecast shows warming trend for U.S. after weeks of winter cold
After several weeks of persistent cold and widespread winter hazards, weather conditions across much of the United States are beginning to moderate as the overall atmospheric pattern shifts. Forecasters report that a strengthening ridge of high pressure is developing over large portions of the country, allowing milder air masses to advance northward and gradually replace the Arctic air that dominated January. The transition marks the first broad return to above-average temperatures in weeks a

Major winter storm to bring ice and heavy snow across South, Midwest and Northeast
A powerful and expansive winter storm is forecast to sweep across large portions of the United States from Friday through Monday, bringing a dangerous mix of heavy snow, sleet and freezing rain to millions across the South, Midwest and Northeast. The system, known as Winter Storm Fern, is expected to impact more than 180 million people as it stretches from New Mexico and Texas to parts of New England, creating hazardous travel conditions and raising the risk of widespread power outages.

Summer Arrives in the United States With Differing Seasonal Definitions in June
As of June 19, 2025, the United States is transitioning from spring into summer, with two distinct interpretations of seasonal timing offering different start dates. Meteorologically, summer began on June 1, while astronomically, the summer season officially starts on June 20. This variation often leads to the question: what season is it in the United States right now? The answer depends on whether one is looking through the lens of astronomy or meteorology. Both systems are valid and widely
