I don't believe it's from the Far Side.

downslopin.... yikes, blow your roof off. Well, anyway, some people in Kansas/Colorado will have some stories of extreme conditions and 5-10 ft snow drifts.

this was earlier today, with over 60mph winds creating severe blizzard conditions in some areas of Kansas

tornado warning W of New Orleans. For right now TMSY short-range radar has it but KLIX doesn't!

wow, the STP value is huge in SE Texas, with a couple of tornado warnings and a couple of severe thunderstorm warnings. Things are starting to get going.

Heavy snowfall rates with blizzard conditions for E Colorado and W Kansas. The HRRR shows a temperature of 21 degrees, snow, and winds of 30kt-50kt in the southeastern section of Colorado. -

Blizzard warnings for the Cascades and Olympic Mountains. I didn't think they did that. -

this is the most snow that any short-term forecast has had for my house since last winter. Of course, there's going to be the warm advection with a chance of wet snow, ice, and rain with a warmup

Mountain West Discussion- cool season '23-24
Chinook replied to mayjawintastawm's topic in Central/Western States
a good bit of Colorado has a watch/warning/advisory/blizzard warning now. If you use your imagination, the blob of warnings and watches in the plains looks like a supercell with the blizzard warning colors as the RFD. -
This is kind of nuts with snow, rain, and freezing rain in random areas of Ohio with the southerly winds.
-
Example of bright-banding, that is, the radar shows very high reflectivity (unrealistically high) with heavy snow/sleet/wet snow.
-
Best of luck to Mid-Atlantic people. Notably, already a reasonably dangerous ice accumulation in SW Virginia.
-
Another depiction of the ECMWF precip type just shows rain for SE Mich at that time frame

Storm in Albuquerque with briefly 1/2 mile visibility snow in ABQ airport, and some light snow amounts in Colorado Springs right now -
It's actually sunny. I spent a long time with a lot of sunny days in Colorado, and I guarantee you, it has been dreary since Christmas here.

The subtropical jet(s) have taken over the North America in the last 10 days with El Nino (my new loop.) https://great-lakes-salsite.web.app/Dec_21_31_2023_250mb_loop.html

Chinook replied to mayjawintastawm's topic in Central/Western States
El Nino please help. Maybe we will see a big improvement in snow pack values (including the Sierra Nevada in the short term.) Upcoming storms will surely help the drought conditions in the Southeast. But that's not this forum. -
Winter 2023/24 Medium/Long Range Discussion
Chinook replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
There is some snow in various areas in the Ohio Valley on the ensembles for the FIRST storm. A lot of the ensemble members have this snow accumulation at about hour 120, that is 00z January 7. -
Winter 2023/24 Medium/Long Range Discussion
Chinook replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Something to consider for the Ohio Valley. As you very well know, lots of models changes will happen in the next 6 days, so don't be surprised if these "big snow" ensembles don't work out
