    A couple robins also showed up here today. The last of the January glacier is finally melting off of the lawn. That glacier was pretty resilient. Because the January snowfall was glazed in ice, which make measuring future snow very easy, I left my snow boards deep under the snow. They are just now emerging.

    Their March temperature outlook is mild and great. However, their 3-month outlook has the upper midwest at only average, which means they think April/May will be cold. I'd rather have a cold March and mild late spring.

    Today was better than yesterday, but we still under-performed by a fair amount, only reaching about 44º.

    Only 1.7" fell in my yard this month. That single snowfall, on Feb 12, was the only measurable snow in the entire month.

    The Euro has trended much farther south with the midweek system. All the heavy rain has been moved to the Tennessee Valley/deep South.

    I try to be as accurate as possible. Often, I wait 8 or more hours to clear my snow board because I don't want to feel like I'm just trying to win a spotter competition. When there is wind and the snow is drifting, I often end up measuring less than surrounding spotters.

    It appears a progressive northern stream will keep much, if not all, of the active weather and precip south and east of the upper midwest over the next couple weeks. The only thing to look forward to is a mild weekend.

    The theme of winter 2019-20.

    00z UK..... wow.

    What I don't get is why the heck DMX issued a watch for freakin' Ames and Des Moines. By the time this watch was issued, I don't think a single model had more than an inch of snow falling there.

    12z Euro
  13. hawkeye_wx
    12z UK is back south and weaker. The UK is caving to the UK.

    The UK continues to slowly improve. The western end of the snow band has shifted further north. It's still not as robust as other models.

    00z Canadian
  17. hawkeye_wx
    Through the 12z run, a solid surface low was shown lifting north into northern Illinois. As the phasing has faded/delayed, that low is gone.

    DMX has issued a watch for Ames and Des Moines even though the models show little if any snow falling there.

    It seems the UK was the only model to see early on that the two waves would be too far apart. The other models are finally seeing it. The Euro may be the king, but it's the king of Turdistan. It has been just about as bad this winter as every other model.

    UK
  21. hawkeye_wx
    Yep. The UK has been well southeast from the start and has never bought into what the other models were selling.
  22. hawkeye_wx
    The Canadian just totally caved southeast. It had been consistently clobbering Iowa. Now Iowa gets nothing. F this winter.
  23. hawkeye_wx
    The GFS has shifted east. It appears this system may not phase in time to hit Iowa, outside of the far east/southeast. The darn lead wave is 3-6 hours too fast.
  24. hawkeye_wx
    The Euro basically just trended halfway to the UK. ARGH. It is a bit faster with the lead wave and slower with the trailing wave. That's all it takes to ruin/delay the phase.
  25. hawkeye_wx
    00z UK - Slight improvement, but STILL weak and well southeast of the other models. Isn't this supposed to be the second best model?
