Some of us have missed most storms either north or south this year.  We only got about 8” in the January storm too and nothing more than 2” since then. I’m all for Spring (if it’s actially warm), but March still has some opportunities in my opinion. So I would like to request a Miller A for next Sunday please.

Next weekend storm looks weak and warm.

I'm hoping we can juice it up some. One advantage Friday has, is it will be cold leading up to it. Forecasted highs in the 20s/ 30s all week and lows in the teens/ 20s should help.

Nice little spinning low -NAO hrs 50-57 on the 12z NAM. If that can hold, we have a chance.. knowing the seasonal trends it won't.

That one is dead before it even started.    Euro is like, wha?  And it's warm, light and gonna switch to rain.  White rain to rain.  SE Ridge, where are you

still might be better than what just occurred this weekend for our latitude.  It wouldn't take much by comparison.  worth watching I suppose

Euro might be biting a little for the weekend. Stronger more distinct shortwave now showing up in the Dakotas moving eastward for the weekend on the esp. Guess we will see where future runs take us with that feature.

just one more small event that is all snow for all of us and sticks to the ground before the clocks spring forward.  not too much to ask I would think lol

Icon doesn’t look bad. All snow through 114. I don’t really care either way at this point. If it rain so so be it. If it snows, yay! I’ve been reaped. I’m in a better place now;)

We can at least track and hope, but I don't like using hope as a course of action. We all love snow so what the heck

I'm sure your right. Although  Temps leading in look to be much better than what we just had.

Gfs/fv3 /Icon say maybe.

Icon has high pressure in the right area at the right time.

The euro that at 18z yesterday was still giving my house 4" of snow for last night? That euro?

Stormtracker thinks its dead and he is probably right.  We have done better at longer leads only to have things change for the worse as we get closer.  But at least temps are a touch better than what we just had.  we needed like 50 miles and 3 degrees to make that something but we didn't get it. 

 

Of course, I am talking to a ghost so you can see where my sanity is headed.

I'm still waiting on my 11 inches the Euro kuchera ratio gave me less than 24 hours prior to snow starting lol. (3/2 12z model run.)

Sounds like we should believe it for this coming opportunity though. I guess it figured it out

First time I have really looked beyond yesterday's storm but the Fri through Mon period does show a little promise. One thing I would probably keep an eye on is how strong the storm running OTS is on Fri/Sat as that will have an impact on the cutter running behind it. Stronger Friday system will tend to knock down heights behind it and in front of the approaching cutter. Probably asking far too much to have heights beaten down enough to get the cutter to slide underneath us but I can see how they are knocked down enough where they put us in a position to score some decent overrunning from the cutter.

We’ve also had things get better as it gets closer in time. I guess lots of people were burned after getting rain instead of snow yesterday. However, I was in the rain the whole time, so I didn’t feel like I lost anything, other than dry ground.
