Personally...for me and some others down this way, it's so bad because this winter has been putrid.
0.9" of snow for Lanco. That's really bad Blizz.
And as Nut said, it's not just a us in Lanco. The eastern seaboard has been largely shutout.
We aren't "buying" anything - overall, the pattern has been bad for the past couple of years. That's a fact.
Doesn't mean it can't snow in a bad pattern but that doesn't change the fact that overall...it hasn't been good. And there's no reason to think it's not going to get worse.
Just saw the weekly forecast for back home - MU going for Sunny and only 24 on Saturday...followed by rain and 45 on Sunday. Good grief.
35 here outside of Little Rock with an ice storm moving in over the next few hours. Nice to find some wintry weather down near the Gulf.
Elliott's long range forecast released last night was not surprising but certainly discouraging - he sees a chance for a single event late next week that would have a ceiling of a few/several inches if everything worked out perfectly. After a couple of cold days next weekend, he's issuing a spring fever alert for much of February. Basically a full-blown torch for at least a few weeks.
Sitting at 3.3" for the season...
