  1. I'd take a repeat of last winter. December was blah and the first week of January was a blowtorch, but then the hammer dropped and we had the snowiest five week period on record. Winter ended after those five weeks, but it was an amazing period.
  2. Yikes! That's pretty awful. Positive everything, MJO looping right back into the warm phases. Let's hope not.
  3. The other models are now caving to the GFS... the euro overnight and the ICON, Canadian, and UK this morning.
  4. Of course, the Euro decides to shake things up tonight. Here is the shift from last night's run to tonight's for the end of the month.
  5. The GFS is the only model showing the phased cutter. The ICON, Canadian, UK, and Euro all look about the same.
  6. The warmest air aloft is over Iowa today, but the surface temp is lagging yesterday by several degrees.
  7. I'd love to get blasted by a 16" blizzard as much as the next guy, but I don't mind the snowless December or mild Christmas week. The older I get, the more I feel, "whatever happens, happens". I'll just enjoy not having to go out in the cold to clean driveways. At some point we'll get some good snow and cold again, and when we do I'll enjoy that.
  8. The 3k NAM is a good two counties south of the 12k NAM.
  9. 12z UK ... It has light accumulation up to the I-80 corridor, but it's not a vigorous system.
  10. Yes, the UK is a big improvement tonight, although still south of Iowa. The energy is much sharper as it ejects into the central US. It hits Kansas and Missouri solidly, then heads ene toward Toledo while weakening some.
  11. The weak clipper dropped 1.3" on my yard this morning. A few places got up to 2" of fluff. Models had this subtle system nailed for a few days.
  12. UK is a nothingburger, suppressed south of the subforum.
  13. Euro not on the same planet as GFS as we head toward Xmas. It shows a very benign pattern.
  14. I picked up 0.3" from the line. Through November 11th I received 11.1" of snow. Over the last month I've received 0.7".
  15. First-ever snow squall warning has been issued for Cedar Rapids as a thin, but heavy and moves in. It's really coming down.
  16. This. While we did see some morning and afternoon snow, the heart of each of our three snow events began in the evening and ended by sunrise. I swear it works out that way far more often than odds say it should.
