Daniel Boone

Totalled 3.7 inches at my house. There was 4 inches in fields and on an old mower I have out back. Had it all accumulated there'd probably been 5-6 inches. There's been a lot of Sun here this Afternoon that has quickly melted most if it. A large area of off and on Snow showers are moving west to east just to the North. Some look heavy. If that area had moved further South we may have racked up another inch or two on the Total.

Currently 28 degrees, 87% Humidity. Dp. 24.4.  Flurries . Had a couple moderate , gusty Snshwrs after the Synoptic ended that mounted to just a dusting more. Most NWFS has missed my home so far. I watch some heavy area's move across Stone Mountain just to my North and cross near Pennington gap and move to my NE.

Measured 2.5" on Board at 4:30 . Snow has stopped now other than light small flakes.

Had between a quarter and half inch on grass and snow board befor snow lightened up for a while. So, melted some..picking backmip now. Had what we already got fell at night we'd  probably had over an inch on Snow board. Alot of heat still coming up from ground and Solar heating through clouds this time of year is hampering Accs.

Moderate to hevy Snow here with a dusting.

This was around 9am this morning at 2600 feet at my cousin's house. It snowed pretty hard here but didn't stick. It was 33 here, probably 30 or 31 up there. 

 

 

 

It was same up here. 2000 Feet had a dusting with maybe an inch above 2500 ft on Wallen Ridge near Pennington gap. Norton had Vehicles and grass covered from what I was told. Not alot of observing lately as Son n Law passed little over a week ago and Life here has changed.

52 & 49 next Monday & Tuesday going to hurt.  Thankful it appears to be a quick shot that does not last long.  Guess it’s time for the folk lore winters.  Is it locust up first? 

There's a pretty good chance you see colder reading's than that as some very cold air lurks to our North in Canada.

I think around here anyway , the first is called something like Sarvis.?. After a type of Tree I think. Second, redbud, third Dogwood then Blackberry.

Nothing to tat really of course. I've witnessed years with more than that many cold snaps and some less. The Dogwood one "may" have some merit; if you tie in a Spiritual Component.

Snowfall totals now that snow chances have dropped to near zero until next winter

Showing half the amount of what I recorded here in Lee County VA.

Could be,but May into June the Jet goes north of us,dont mean you cant get severe but the odds are against it,tornado threat should seemingly shift into the OV plus the plains

With the late SSWE , depending on how late with the Lag , it may cause an extended Severe Season. Could cause a shift south of us for a period (probably early April) then a strong revamping rest of April well into or even through May.

Sure looks like a severe signal showing up between 200-240 hours.  

Yeah, it sure does man. I like tracking severe but am not a Fan, if that makes sense. Lol. That's Jax and Jeff's cup of Tea.

Hey DB,

To be efficient, I’ll look at one city, Tulsa, as a good rep of the S Plains. They actually had a NN precip fall. But winter has been dry with only 1.62” vs 5.65” 30 year normal. This was the driest winter there since 2005-6’s 1.59” and second driest on record! Records go back to 1893-4.

 1931-2 winter there was wet with 7.7”. Also, Nov of 1931 is the 2nd wettest Nov on record. So, winter of 31-2 didn’t at all foretell the upcoming dust bowl. Then again, 1932 overall ended up dry overall with a very dry Feb-May and Aug-Sep. Also, 1934 and 36 were dry while 1939 was the 6th driest on record.

Thanks man ! Good to know.

The current drought throughout the SE US is serious business! In my area, for example, the last 6 months’ 9.38” were in the aggregate at KSAV the driest Sept-Feb since way back in 1931-2 (though 1931-2 was much drier) and were <50% of the 1991-2020 avg of 19.74”!

Driest Sept-Feb KSAV on record:

6.52” 1931-2 
6.64” 1917-8 
7.78” 1901-2
9.04” 1906-7
9.06” 1889-90
9.38” 2025-6
9.44” 2001-2
9.55” 1940-1

19.74” 30 yr avg

Yeah. Larry, I had been concerned we could be headed into another "dust bowl" situation as the Southern Plains has been very dry as well. That 31-32 sticks out. Could you run some numbers in the current Plains situation ? Then what we can find on the Global Indices leading up to the Dust Bowl. Hopefully the incoming Nino will derail any such evolution this time.

2.4 inches here. Creek is at a winter high today. 

Wow ! An inch more. Did you get thunder ?

Another underperforming rainfall event. I can't remember the last time one overperformed. I bet it was the big flash flood back in August. Everything since then has delivered less than advertised.

Came out well with this one here. 1.32" . A bit more than forecast for here.

I give the winter a B- because we did get a significant winter storm end of last month. Ridge was too far east out west. In my area, we got glancing blows of cold air except for end of January where we had a solid week of cold. We typically get 1 winter storm, but occasionally its twice a winter. 

Exactly. Ridge/Trough axis Mean was too far East.

  Winter Storms and Snowfall Averages have gradually decreased over the Decades. I think it's long term scale Cyclical instead of Man made as far as the Global Landscape. Greenland was once Farmland. Greenland was Frozen Tundra before that. Large Urban Areas have obvious man made effects. Oceans also are definitely affecting Climate as well. We can still cash in if things align right and have a banner Snowfall Winter.

Last 3 runs of GEFS for next week

Hopefully it does come further South. Be nice to go out with a Bang for many. The Ohio Valley and Northeast has had plenty enough.
