If you could re-experience ONE winter event....
buckeye replied to cyclone77's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
1978 blizz hands down even though the snow amounts were nothing crazy here in mby, the wind and the rapid temp drop made that storm one for the ages. That was basically a cat3 hurricane over land. But what i would find fascinating is to see how the current day models would have handled that storm. How far out they would have begun to see it and when the severity/phasing aspect would have been latched onto. You look at a model like the ukie that loves to forecast phased bombs into the lakes....can't imagine what some of the outputs would have looked like lol. -
interesting, we are in the thick of it this morning and you are absolutely correct about the lack of bird songs

The media figured out the term ‘heat dome’ and now they’re using it ad nauseum like they do with polar vortex in the winter.
-
Looks like a typical stretch of summer heat to me. Seems when it comes to weather we’ve lowered the bar on what constitutes extreme.

Yea, clickbait, just thought the headline was so opposite this thread, I couldn’t resist -

the storms locally on Saturday afternoon were the most destructive of the season, so far, (at least around the northern burbs of CMH). Out driving around for work today and lots of downed trees. A house on our street with moderate damage to the roof from a large tree going down. Once again, it always seems like our best severe comes when there's virtually no hype beforehand.

back at ya, sometimes i miss the old days when subs based on geography weren't a thing. ...sometimes -
2026-2027 Super El Nino
buckeye replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
Yea, a -5 departure for the winter in a place like Atlanta and southern apps probably implies some much below normal periods in there that if timed up with a nino-style stj can give them their freak snows. Meanwhile, during those same periods we're cold but watching the juice slide under us. Likewise, when a place like Columbus or Detroit sees a +5 departure for the winter in a nino, chances are that the cold periods are dry and the warm is wet. But like i mentioned in an earlier post, super ninos can definitely pack a surprise or two. -

A super nino winter can also hold surprises and extreme events even though the overall backdrop is above normal temps. I think Cincy had it's greatest 24 hr snowfall in Feb of '98. Weird cut off low dropping snow to the south and rain to the north. It probably won't be completely boring and I'm sure there will be some fantasy storms to track. -
stand corrected ...I wouldn't hate that though.
-
yea. Can't wait for our 97-98 redux winter. 40's and rain
-
really getting tired of "trough east". Hoping for a good ole fashioned heat dome to set in.
-
Not sure why, but this sure hasn't felt like a historically warm month here in Ohio. It seems like the cooler than normal days have stood out more than the warmer than normal days. Maybe it's just my old a** getting less and less cold tolerant
