  1. LWX saying wintry precip in next week’s storm is “plausible” for our area… in a nod to the GFS. Euro and CMC still show a cutter and rain. I’m not up to speed on model performance and comparison, but Euro used to be the king. That still the case or has it gotten dethroned?
  2. Interesting trend for the dec 16 cutter. Rain-snow line was all the way up in michigan/canada just a few runs ago. Now it’s closer to the m/d line. that’s the gfs op though. No idea on ens or what the euro says
  3. Wouldn’t be surprised to see record cold in the midwest with that setup.
  4. Promising sign at 10 days out. Before it was always 14-15 days+
  5. Well, when you put it this way…
  6. Rainy foggy. 48. Iweathernet only has 0.06” for me but I think I had more and it just reset.
  7. Exactly what I wanted to see. Pushing that aleutian ridge east to get cold air east of the rockies… and here. Hope this holds.
  8. Appreciate the rec. Will buy it today. Thanks!
  9. So dry that my wife is having nose bleeds. She’s from a tropical climate and not used to it
  10. 21 for the low, sparkly frost everywhere. Rebounded strongly to 45.
  11. Yep. Now it looks like astroturf
  12. Just mowed the lawn in December for the first time in my life. Set the mower to the lowest setting possible. Call it page #108 in the La Nina winter playbook. If it snows just an inch, the grass will be completely covered…
  13. What I wanted to see if we’re gonna snow before the 15th is a more poleward aleutian high shifted more east to dump arctic air east of the rockies. The maps don’t show that and never have until EPS hints toward it dec ~17th or so. Otherwise we can make a -pna work in January but not this time of year.
  14. 12z GEFS still has a signal for an EC storm around the 15th. Still in the game…
  15. Strange, I would have thought the PNA would be more positive. Looks more neutral/weak + when the big one happened
  16. Agreed, and it’s much easier to get a good snowfall out of a -pna in Jan/Feb than it is in December. It’s just not cold enough yet
  17. Looks like a classic 4-8er with no ptype issues. I’d take it and run.
  18. 24 for the low here. Really had to scrape my car
  19. Good one. I’m still skeptical of a big snow because of the big -nao for this exact reason. -pna is a bit too negative for my liking… for now. Could change as modeled, though. And if this plays out like those two analogs, we could be looking at a really good January.
  20. November turned out to be +3 and we’re looking at a strong -nao and colder temps in December, so things are on track so far. I would love to get a big snow in December but I’m not seeing deep cold with the aleutian ridge / -pna. If we do get a storm mid-Dec or earlier, the H5 maps over the pacific look like it might not be cold enough for an all snow event. I think this winter will be full of surprises, though.
  21. Yeah, it must be entirely automated. But still.
