  1. It’s fun to actually feel like we’re tracking. This is within 10 days. Pretty incredible.
  2. The storm Friday is close to producing some frozen precip also. As long as this keeps moving forward. No more can kicking. Pretty amazing that it’s seemed like winter for the last few weeks. Cloudy & cold. Highs in the 40’s lows in 20’s.
  3. I definitely don’t see that happening but dreaming is fun. History does produce the unthinkable sometimes. We are due in this area forum wide for history to say it’s time.
  4. We get that much snow forum wide & those temps. Yep I will say thank you winter. Now where is spring because that would shut down most of the state for several days. Snow days would be used up quickly for the schools.
  5. I don’t expect those type of temps nor that much snow but history shows that extremes like this have happened here before. So anything is possible. Though if it’s going to be that cold. Then yes please snow that much to protect my new landscaping.
  6. Hopefully we get snow on ground before that kinda cold. Otherwise just dry & cold. I’ll take a hard pass.
  7. I did see an interesting quote from a top meteorologist out of the NE. He said “that the low placements 3 days out are usually on average 150 miles off of where they will usually end up”.
  8. What is the ole saying? Everything always snaps back the other way like a rubber band to equal it all out.
  9. I am thinking the warm up is not the warm up that we are accustomed to. If there is really much of a warm up. I also remember strong -NAO being a trump card in the past. Maybe my mind is remembering incorrectly. Also is there still a PV split or partial? That could definitely play in our favor or against us. Maybe this time it plays in our favor. Positive side is the cold is in Canada & very nearby now. Marginal temps are being pushed south. We are going to get moisture even if it’s rain or frozen. That’s a change from the dry pattern.
  10. Maybe false hope but I feel the MJO forecast are wrong or it will be overridden by other factors. -NAO. PV split. Only time will tell.
  11. Honestly extreme is nice if don’t won’t any snow. I prefer the cold enough for snow. Plus I prefer to not have to replace my landscaping again this spring!!!!! lol!
  12. Even here in middle TN we are averaging normal to slightly below normal for the temps dept. I read this could be the first January in quite some time for this area to have a normal to below normal January. I think that’s pretty impressive for a supposed to be warm January.
  13. Lots of different opinions on what really happens with this cold. A few say goes west. A few say suppression city for here. I will take the some moisture with freezing temps nearby.
  14. Honestly I feel one day we will have that type of temps. again here. Like China is having now. If wx cycles are truly real.
  15. Thanks for the suggestions. We plan to head out there in the spring. Her place will be our place of stay while we visit the area. We have never been to Yellowstone. Looking forward to it.
  16. My niece just moved to Billings MO! She’s a traveling Dr. occupational therapist
  17. Unfortunately, it appears it’s just gonna be low 40s with some cold rains. We need the rain, but I can do without the cold rain. Well in 10 weeks it’ll be mid March knocking on spring.
  18. Happy New Years to everyone! I hope it’s a wonderful year for ALL. I hope we all get a big snow before winter is over.
  19. Carver very well said. I am like you in that I am not on either side of the climate spectrum. Do I believe it’s changed. Most definitely but you said the key words. “Has it changed for reasons we don’t know”. Yes no doubt man has added some effects but I don’t believe it’s to the levels the politicians & govts. are saying. I like you wonder is this a cycle that we are going thru or is the earth striking midnight. We have heard that many years from now the sun will go out. Who knows if true. I am saddened also to see what we are doing to the earth. With the technology of today how can recycling not be more important & efficient. I watch builders just erase everything off the land to build houses & buildings. It’s sad & disgusting. I want my kids to have a beautiful earth to live on not a barren wasteland. Why do houses not have solar panels built on the roofs already. Why do water heaters not get their electricity from solar panels. It’s all about $. Cutting corners & getting cheapest materials to build. When in reality it’s killing the future for our kids. We have advanced so much as humans yet we still do things like it’s the stone ages. As far as the numbers being edited. It does not surprise me. If they make the numbers less it plays into the $ making climate change narrative.
  20. Funny you say that. When I started following also. All I ever heard was about the AO/NAO/PNA. Never once heard about the MJO. Now it’s all about the MJO. Honestly it would not surprise me if another gets added to this group in the next few years. One thing is for certain. We are nowhere close to understanding wx.
