Ya, I'll pass on the cold and bare ground haha (I live south of Hamilton) Id rather a warm month instead of cold and dry with no snow on the ground lol
Tomorrow looks to be a good 2-4” for GTA before rain washes it all away in a few hours. 1-2” max down here.
Saturday storm looks like a redo of this current one. So Toronto is padding the stats but it’s gone within a few hours of falling.
This winters getting a F from me and I’m cheering for a top 5 least snowy lol. My actual guess is Toronto ends up with about 28” just outside top 5. Will have to look back at the records to see if it can be top 10 bad
I’m on your page here. Though it is a half decent track for you guys. You have no wiggle room though for any jogs NW
It’s a bit early but getting ready to toss the towel in over here in the eastern lakes
Lol Toronto is going to get back to back cutters that help prop up their seasonal total but turn to rain within a few hours of the onset.
still looking good for a top 5 least snowy winter because of the western cutters
The winds could be awesome for seiche in Erie.
But overall that was maybe the worst run of the gfs ive seen haha. Central and Western Lakes cash and Eastern Lakes gets nothing. Id rather warmth instead of cold and bare ground haha
I agree, not sure about west Michigan but the Detroit-Toronto-Niagara corridor will be hard pressed to get a big snowstorm. Toronto might sneak in a 1-4” Lake enhanced snow tomorrow night.
Not saying it can’t happen but let’s cool the jets a bit on widespread 1-2 feet coming the next 10-14 days lol.
January 2016 seems similar at Toronto where it looks like we got heavy rain followed by cold, brief warm up, 1.5" of snow and then below freezing for a week but nothing crazy cold. Will be interesting to see if it follows the same script
Interesting I wonder if this is the set up that happened in 09-10
Niagara/Toronto proper miss south on some and get rain on the cutters.
Got 3 days in a row with some snow cover though which is a nice win. That New Years system gave just enough
Ya, that’s a good way to put it. But some in Ontario are starting to say make sure you have snowblowers and shovels ready it’s about to become real cold and real snowy
Yep, and then what is a bit annoying is the general public doesn’t understand why Toronto or Chicago aren’t buried in 1-2 feet of snow and -10F
The pattern is definitely better and I’m hopeful for a mid size 3-6” storm followed by 20s for highs in the next few weeks. That's where my expectations are currently lol
I’m just wanting a solid 3-6” storm that then stays on the ground for at least a week. The hype about this new pattern has spread to social media so this will be a bit funny if nothing happens in my region. Lots of talk of monster winter storms and frigid air.
Toronto is far enough east that I might take a look at Rochester-Albany in 48-49. Could be some inland runners?
I’m excited for the second half of winter because I do think we see a turn towards more snow and cold and even if we hit top 5 least (25”) it will feel like a snowy second half
