Days are already getting longer. Have gained about 15 mins back of sunset time. 8 weeks of met winter left, and then it's time to start looking towards spring. Let's hope something worthy of tracking shows up later this month, or in Feb.
Long ways off but it never gets old seeing big storms like that show up in the long range. Luckily we have another 11 days to get that to trend a bit northwest.
It's kind of funny, we have almost 8" of snow for the season but it really feels like I haven't seen it snow yet in a way. About 95% of the snow that fell and accumulated fell when it was pitch black out. Will be looking forward to the first true daytime event. Even a nice snow shower during the day would be nice.
Definitely looking very windy late Tue night through Wed. Looks like 50-60mph wind potential for this area points east Wed. The Euro indicates another big wind maker for the weekend as well.
So shall we largely ignore the NCEP guidance beyond the 48-72hr mark this season? The GFS has flopped hard on the first two systems of note. I know it's definitely gonna be hard to take it seriously until it scores a win or a tie at the least.
