Another Arctic Blast?!

[Thomas F. Giella NZ4O]

Hi Melissa yep six more weeks of winter and with El Nino it could last even 
longer. Another arctic blast is probable beginning some time next week
around the 15th. Will it be a repeat of the first two weeks of January 2010?

Statistically from a standpoint of climatology no! However if I were still 
running my weather consulting business I would have already warned all of my
customers in Florida that a repeat is very possible but probably not of the 
same duration.

We did have hard freezes in January and February 1996.

I'm not the only Meteorologist calling for it. Check out:
