I think the big threat, if we still have it, is not until after this weekend. And it's still there, it hasn't evaporated. Patience required. And with short run modeling being haywire this year, maybe we can get a quick win (win = seeing snowflakes) in the meantime.
Does anybody have a link to a quick explainer for how SSW impacts things at other levels of the atmosphere? My eyes glaze over at 10mb zonal winds, but if I had any idea how this impacted the charts I do kind of understand thanks to this board (250mb, 500mb, 850mb, surface), it would really help. Thx!
