Interesting model test to see what actually evolves. In the past couple of seasons how many deepening sub 990 lows for the lakes and OV were modeled this far out only to go from thump to real time dud.

yes, definitely no wx zzzzz's around Halloween . From high of 70 on the 31st to low of 30 on the 1st. Lots of rain across the OV over the next 10 days too.

'92?

Damn.... sorry guys I didn't see the other thread started by IWXwx scary part was I even looked you can delete or whatever....

So I re-activated my wxbell subscription... have to say the new model graphics are much improved....very nice!

gotcha

assuming you don't mean cold air damming.... if so, I'm intrigued, what is the 'other' CAD?

Amazing times we live in. I've used that smiley dozens of times in the years I've posted here and just like all those other times it's never been meant literally....just a way to illustrate a smart*** remark/action, (ie hoisting a maga flag in the epicenter of the democrats campaign stop). But unfortunately you're right, people take that stuff totally different now. Lol...I never even remotely thought of that post the way you did until I read your reply. I guess I'm just not 'woke' enough...or twisted enough. In fact now that you bring it up, I'm kind of surprised it's still an available emoji.

in non-weather news....from the little sleepy town of Westerville.... I can see the building where the dem debate is being held from my upstairs windows. ....should I hoist a MAGA flag?

Yep. She graduated this past spring. Working in Columbus now. Agree...campus is very nice.

...too many jokes about his daughter has finally taken it's toll. Good to see you back pondo. Hopefully we'll have something to discuss this winter other than the latest local met scandals and deaths.

gotta admit, I'm kinda jealous of the folks in the 'wet & wild' zone. Also, what's happening in IL and IN? Are they wet & wild too? Figures we'd get donut-holed out of the fun.

I've been thinking a lot about the 'crispy dry' conditions around here and into southern OH. I'm really surprised that I haven't heard more about wildfire threats. If we don't get some decent rain in the next few weeks it's going to be an absolute tinder box out there. Hell, we couldn't even squeeze a drop of rain out of a front that ended a heat wave and dropped our temps 30 degrees....just a dry windy front.

I saw it posted in another forum. Looks like they have Ohio in the epicenter of greatest snowfall departure from normal, (150%). lol Pretty likely we have a typical winter. 1 hyped event that ends up severely disappointing and a heapful of pennies and nickles as we scratch our way to average snowfall. Safe bet.

Even Ganahl had a scandal wrt prescription drug abuse and was arrested....this was back in the mid 90's and at the time it was big news. He weathered (no pun) that storm though somehow and is still around. The death of Chris Bradley last year... CMH meterologists, not a lucky group.

For the CMH crowd.... just WOW. Never in a million years would I have expected to see this. Mike Davis

My subscription timeframe is usually early Dec thru early March....so I have no idea yet. But I'd guess better than average odds he's going with something like a 77-78 analog.

Damn! I got all excited when I saw Pondo was back....I was hoping to see a GFS 2160hr app runner being posted.

Incoming winter of yore?

Just came back from daughters graduation at IWU, couldn't believe all the flooded farm fields across northern IN. Lots of rain coming in for that area too....

Euro never bought into it, and still isn't. Canadian originally bought into it but moved away towards the euro. If it was just the euro alone I would still give this hope but the Canadian moving into the euro camp puts a lot more credibility in this being a non event. I suspect the GFS will cave in the coming runs. On a separate note, that follow up cutter needs to be watched for our first possible severe threat of the season.

There was a time not too long ago when a euro solution like that, (day 4), could almost be taken to the bank. Fast forward, now it seems the euro has about the same fail rate at days 4+ that any other model has. If it's still showing that kind of i-70 hit job on Friday's 12z runs.... I'll start to get pumped.

Make it end please....

Looks like about 2 weeks of some unusually cold temps. I suspect it'll be a dry cold period bookended with rain. Then hopefully we put this winter to bed.
