That is February, first of all, second, our coldest weather actually comes from stretches, anyway...as we saw in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like in September. Sure we could get a heat wave but summer is winding down. I see milder temps, melting….and it just feels like back broken. Doesn’t have the feel like it did a month ago.

Yea, back is brocken, but there remains a functional spine....it's not a paraplegic. I just think you need to be a bit more nuanced in your approach here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many preseason forecasts were front loaded and the warmer 2nd half; is this the start of the warmer 2nd part of winter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 The CC related fast flow has definitely played a role in lack of coastals. I think 10+ years ago we would've scored with the big coastal earlier and the one coming up. Northern stream only systems is why half the country is in a drought 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounded like they never saw any chance of a SSW in February, until guidance actually showed it at like 10 days lead. It didn't work out, but my point is that group-think isn't very effective....this stuff isn't often apparent until very short leads. This harkens back to what I said to @Typhoon Tipyesterday, about letting the foundational pre-season work guide you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Remember, Scott....we don't necessarily need the mother lobe of the PV in close proximity to have a productive March at this latitude. 2018 was a perfect example of that. Now granted, we aren't going to get the major SSW in time like we did that year and I thought we would this year, but that doesn't necessarily mean we won't get another round of stretching. Furthermore, this season has also already very aptly demonstrated a strong predisposition towards high latitude latitude blocking at least excuse imaginable due to the aforementioned strat-solar-ENSO overlay, which is what I meant by adhering to pre-season work. Where was the huge stratospheric smoking gun that triggered the latter January NAO blocking?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 It will def. be a late-spring...that was always a given IMHO. Question remains RE how much snow is left in the balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been dealing with some newly diagnosed heart problems (AFib), it sucks not to be able to do the things you want/need to do. But hey, it can always be worse.

Yeah definitely final warming. As westerly winds weaken we can be prone to more blocking. It just sounds like from what I gather many in the field aren’t counting on that in March. Of course there are various ways to get blocking….just what I heard. I don’t care either way, I just want to know if it will snow or nots 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCORH4L Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 We'll get our coastals in April and May and then they'll cut off and become occluded right over us for weeks of misery mist and rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I'll take a closer look at March when I do the preview in a couple of weeks....gonna decompress for now. I don't keep my eyes pinned on the long range throughout the season like people may suspect...I tend to just go into snow-hunt mode. I do a deep dive for the outlook, obviously, and then only dip my toes back into it for the monthly previews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
