    U.S. Wind Surge - Northeast Gets Hammered

    Today’s U.S. wind pattern is centered on one main zone: the Northeast. In this episode, I break down maximum gust speeds and gust-speed departures across the CONUS for March 17, 2026, including why New York and New England stand out most, where winds are running above normal, and which regions are quieter than usual. I also cover the secondary gust signal in the northern Rockies and what this setup could mean for travel, infrastructure, and short-term weather impacts. https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E5_United_States_Windspeed_Forecast.png⁠ ⁠https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E5_United_States_Windspeed_Departure_Forecast.png⁠

    Wet North, Dry Pacific Coast: South America Rainfall Outlook, March 13–19, 2026

    In this episode, we break down the South America rainfall pattern for March 13–19, 2026, using both total precipitation and percent-of-normal rainfall. The forecast shows a notably wet northern tier from Venezuela into the Guianas and northern Brazil, a very dry Pacific-side corridor from Peru into much of Chile, and a mixed transition zone across central Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina. This is a region-by-region rainfall outlook with specific totals, anomaly ranges, and short-term implications. https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E4_South_America_Total_Precipitation_Forecast.png https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E4_South_America_Percentage_Normal_Precipitation_Forecast.png

  3. March 2026 Western U.S. Heatwave: Hotter Than 2012?

    March 2026 Western U.S. Heatwave: Hotter Than 2012?

    A major heatwave is building across the western United States over the next seven days, with parts of California, Nevada, Arizona, and the interior West running far above normal for mid-March. In this episode, I break down where the hottest air is setting up, where colder conditions are holding on, and how this pattern compares to the famous March 2012 heatwave. The key takeaway: the West may actually be hotter than 2012 in many places, but this is not a nationwide repeat of that event. https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E3_United_States_Max_Temperature_Forecast.png https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E3_United_States_Max_Temperature_Departure_Forecast.png https://weathermapping.com/Podcast_Images/S1E3_United_States_Max_Temperature_Comparsion_2012.png

    Australia’s Next Two Weeks: Rain, Dryness, and Temperature Swings

    Australia’s next two weeks look sharply divided: wetter than normal in Queensland, the eastern Northern Territory, and parts of the east coast, but drier across much of Western Australia. In this episode, we break down total rainfall, percent of normal precipitation, and temperature departures across the country, along with the key regional impacts.

    Coffee Supply Problems? 15-Day Southeast Asia Rainfall Outlook

    Southeast Asia is one of the most important regions for Robusta coffee, and the next 15 days of rainfall could shift field conditions across Vietnam and Indonesia. In this episode, we break down the forecast two ways - total precipitation and percent of normal - then go region-by-region to highlight where rain is most likely to impact flooding risk, field access, and crop timing. If you care about coffee supply, pricing pressure, or just want a clear weather read for Southeast Asia, this one’s for you.
