It’s coming you already know it!

So, that was 10.3” of snow, 2.6” of sleet, and 0.07” freezing rain take!

The ground hog must wrong then.

Hurricane Hunter is refueling data will be ready by no later than 12z model runs Friday, February 6th 2026.

Let’s see 7 pm.

I guess the hurricane hunters dropped in some new data points out in the Pacific.

The snow pack will save us! I mean lock the cold air at the surface for freezing rain and power outages.

Yes! North Carolina outer banks stage right!

Yea the NAM at hour 234 have the sleet line in southern New York State!

Ratings and clicks, ratings and clicks!! Especially as weenies see brighter sun and longer days, pitchers and catchers report and click bait people get worried. Us here though we know the drill: Severe Weather Season, Heat, Hurricanes to track, then winter weather outlooks begin, and off to tacking the next FOLKS in 2026-27!

However this is totally how it snows here in February with more latent heat building to our south ready to be pulled over the top of fresh Arctic air! It’s the timing that we need. I like our chances after this week let the chaos begin on the models heading the next 12-14 days we will be tracking soon!

I was going to say what are we buckling up for?? Now I see! Hopefully it starts to send Stormtrackers avatar into a more positive state?

Don’t forget ice jams and ice jam flooding.

All seriousness we do have 1-2” liquid frozen on rock hard grounds. If the southern branch of the jet stream wakes up and really amps a storm and suddenly 50-60 degree air comes with a storm that drops 2-3” we most certainly have big issues with flooding and ice jams due to frozen grounds and rapid runoff. I suppose it’s not a matter but when with our new Tundra in place. I 100% like the heads up and the what if scenario in this case. I do recall issues like this in 1996 but there was less ice just a lot more liquid available. Think we are setting up for possible major snow storms first followed by a flip of the switch warming and wet by very late February or sometime in March. If anyone has a 500 chart it shows the STJ beginning to wake up. I think we are about to enter into a transition at this time next 6 weeks from La Niña towards El Niño I’d expect some turbulent / possible extreme weather. Phil then should see his shadow because we are about to pick up 15-20” of snow next 4-6 weeks.

Valleys low here was 2.2f with a -8 dew point true Arctic!!

Well lookie there there is the kicker coming southeast out of Canada both models.

The weather was awful when I was there in the first week of August every day cloudy with NE winds 20-40 mph and you couldn’t touch the very rough oceans. It was strange too ocean water temps were 80-82 but the air temp as like 76 with the wind and drizzle from time to time. Sounds like a great weekend get away! I mean a shelter in place don’t think I’ve ever seen that before geeze.

I don’t think we can know much about this week coming up until the development and strengthening of the coastal to our southeast is resolved. The models are still trying to figure out what to do even now with that coastal. Anything beyond 100 hours is an absolute crap shoot? In the meantime enjoy cold, dry, and snowpack with a screaming west-northwesterly flow of blocking.

That’s what “Meatloaf” said!

May have to wait until very late February all of March and the first quarter of April for the big one.

Must be the sun spots or is it just cold here and no where else on the planet. It’s a balancing act has to be well above normal somewhere have not had the time to see where.

Excited down there for you guys! It’s been a while. Can’t wait to see the cams out of the Outer Banks! Good Luck! Currently 13f here dew point -1 Going down to 0 here under crystal clear skies with 12” snow / sleet / freezing rain pack.
