stormdragonwx Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Looking at some of the long term data we might be done unless something happens in March. Showed promise but turned out to be a very meh season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ole Bucket Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Absolute scenes today in SEMO. Thundersleet, thundersnow, lightning bolts and 1” per hour rates for a short period. Total mess all over the roads Only wild for about 2 hours but it was a scene. Probably 3” of snow and sleet here in Ste. Genevieve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stx_Thunder Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Interesting overrunning deep convective scenario there in MO. A very good amount of strikes recorded on lightning data today progressing east through much of the southern half of the state. I’m sure graupel and a little hail was also falling in some of the stronger storms as 700Mb (10 Kft) temps were already below 0 C this morning, and 500Mb (18 Kft) around - 20 C. Which is quite cold aloft in the mid levels for such deep convective scenario in the south. And the residual chilly airmass earlier today was extremely shallow with an E on the 12Z SGF (Springfield MO) upper-air sounding this morning. Mid-level lapse rates were fairly steep too (7 C/km). Which was also causing the substantial lightning activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketWX Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Ahh yes, the entire 240hr 12Z Euro looking nice and dry over KS. Along with some tight pressure gradients throughout, I can't wait for the forecast to be centered around elevated fire danger. sigh. This is actually right on time for peak wildfire season but really don't want to break the momentum we've built over the winter busting this drought.

lookingnorth Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Doesn't feel much like winter today, with much of Oklahoma getting into the upper 80s, and the southern part of the state having some areas in the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been basically like that for about a week now (closer to 2 weeks of above normal temps this time of year) down here in southern TX with more unusual mid-upper level subtropical high influence nearby in Mexico. But I’m glad winter isn’t necessarily over yet for the Southern Plains into March (possibly even into late March/early April looking at recent CFS runs especially if -AO phase does indeed return), as another polar airmass intrusion all the way south to the Western Gulf is likely after tomorrow. Despite the cooling effects will only last for about 3 days down here (which is typical). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 February going out with a little bang. Heavy, wet snow falling out right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was sleeting really heavy here for about an hour, was crazy man! Didn't stick though cause of the warm ground temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormdragonwx Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Unless something really drastic comes up on the data I'm thinking R.I.P. winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookingnorth Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Yeah, we had a couple good weeks in January, and a decent snow in February, but overall this winter was unimpressive. At least we weren't setting records for winter warmth like they were further north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
