So in other words, miss SE again for those of us who got shafted by the last one.
If I were a snow lover, this winter for southern WI wouldn't even merit an F-. It would get kicked out of school for academic dishonesty.
And what pattern is that, exactly? And what combination of teleconnections will it take to change that? Seems no matter what, +/- ENSO, PDO, NAO, AO etc the result is the same for years on end.
If the surface/500mb look for next Thursday holds, all I ask is that we get about 10-14 days of repeated rounds with similar systems sometime from mid-April through May.
12Z GFS looks mighty interesting in about 8 days for both winter and severe...details/ceiling will change many times of course but definitely some potential there.
Wouldn't mind an evolution like late Feb. 2017. Couple of gorgeous days, followed by kitchen sink winter storm, followed by another warmup with severe weather. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk
Over the last week or so where we've gotten a couple of those DAB snows where the city then puts down about 1/4" of salt powder. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk
I know, right? But my point was, the tweet referenced the GFS, so it seems to be flipping from run to run, which is not exactly unexpected at the ranges we're talking about.
18Z GFS basically has single digits either side of 0 sitting over WI through the end of the run with only brief respites. Best we can do is mid-20s while 50s push to the ND/SD border just shy of 200 hours.
I was living in Milwaukee the winter of 2012-'13 and don't remember much of anything happening until February that winter. Now that you remind me though, my parents did have some beautiful pictures of snow in their backyard from shortly before Christmas that year.
