JoMo Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Any more good news on the distant horizon? Not really any change. It should get better after the 25th or so. But there is a lot of model uncertainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Already 47 here this morning. The ice or the valleys or something must be holding the temps down in Arkansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who is not fond of wind, it can stop any time it wants to. EDIT: and we just hit 53 MPH at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know it could spin that fast. ha ha Mine made it up to 28 MPH during the 53 MPH gust. Of course it's 6 feet off the ground with trees and houses all around. EDIT: Guess 20 fire departments went to that fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Quick update on what's going to happen based on the 12z Euro and the 00z and 12z Euro Ensembles. We look to have several dry cold frontal passages over the next week or so that will bring a cool down that is quickly followed by a warmup ahead of the next cold frontal passage. Any precipitation looks to take place to our east. After having a warm to neutral look to them yesterday (or maybe the day before), the ensembles are again showing cold in the long range. Still going with the cold coming around the 25th or so. It will be east Canada based at first before it 'fills in' west across Canada down into the US. The coldest looks to be in the Great Lakes up into the N Plains. Edit: 500 MB maps just came in... They look pretty good. Nice ridge from the Pacific, up through Alaska and points farther north. That's a very cold look for the central and eastern US.... Now to get a system to come through... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Waterboy Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Sounds like we have 10-12 days of pretty boring weather before things could get exciting again. We'll call it halftime and enjoy the break. If the cold does resurface in late Jan/early Feb the Super Bowl could definitely have some added excitement we've never seen before. How cool would that be???!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Euro weeklies have a very active period late Jan into early Feb and it's pretty cold during that time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Long range GFS starting to show a little more promise, although it still looks to be a bit dry. I think our December pattern will return by late month, which would be in line with Doug's pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wx 24/7 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I'm in Wisconsin right now for a couple of days and we have 10" of fresh snow. Woo hoo! Maybe I can bring some back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm jealous. Im tired of the warm already. It was a very nice break but now time to get back to the good stuff. Just hope we don't freeze for nothing.

Slamma jamma off of a 3 pt miss what an exclamation point to a great game. Nice to get a big win against a ranked team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Long range (Day 11-15) is still looking great on the 12z Euro Ensembles. Both the ensemble and control run are cold with the control being a bit farther west with the coldest anomalies. Overall, it appears winter will make its comeback towards the end of the month. Hopefully we will get some systems to go along with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we will get some systems to go along with that. I've always said, "give me the cold, and I will take my chances that the snow will follow". I hate to oversimplify but the simple fact is that it has to get cold before we have any hope of seeing widespread snow so I am all aboard for the late-month return to colder. To my (very untrained) eye, it appears that it is finally starting to firm up around a specific time frame rather than always being 10+ days out on each successive model run. Now, I just have to figure out what to do with myself for the next 10 days or so while waiting for the cold to come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Waterboy Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 The 12Z GFS went nuts from day 10 on. Wow! Crazy clown map. Maybe someone can post it. I don't know how to from my phone. I'm ready for some excitement again. I look at this site about 400 times a day hoping there's new posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take half that snow depth all day long. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I think it just shows the pattern is probably about to become great again for storms and rumors of storms. Hopefully right on thru most of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully right on thru most of February. I know. It would be a miracle if it is even close. It added a little blocking over the Atlantic and came up with that. Lol. Will be watching future runs again though for the next 2-3 weeks it looks like. Guess every hard winter needs a break in it every once in awhile. I'm just ready for the break to be over. Lol. One thing that they are growing quite sure about is possibly the coldest air of the year coming down out of Canada. Brrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I wish the Euro snow map looked like that. The control run snow map out to hour 360 does have snow.... in New Orleans... heh Anyway, 12z Euro ensembles still cold. The control run was extremely cold. Just have to wait to get closer to see any storm threats plus the ensembles and control have been moving around with the coldest of the air. The 00z run had most the cold air over the Great Lakes and NE but came back west on the 12z run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Well, heres hoping the euro doesn't start flip flopping as time goes by. Still looking pretty good. Just looked at the Thurs weeklies and eventually the trough shifts farther west. The control run was very cold through the first 16 days of Feb even.
