sorry ...been huggin' the floor perhaps... But it's not just spring storms. I like fantastic events, period...

What's interesting about spring snow though, is that the larger diabatic heating in the atmosphere assists in evaporation and putting huge water content into snow deliveries... And, some may argue that while there is a better frequency of dangerous storms in say, Jan 20 to Feb 15 ...the very best candidates tend to come now ... albeit, far less frequently.

 

No apologies necessary. I'm enjoying your enthusiasm and learning a lot along the way.

Tip - this one has definitely sparked your curiosity.  I hope it comes true.

Looks to me that there are a significant number of sub 980 lows west of the EPS mean.

To my untrained eye - It looks like the EPS mean appears to be pulled east by a bunch of members halfway to Europe in the timeframe of interest.
