  1. After the next 7 days or so, the polar air really looks to get scoured from the CONUS and southern Canada, not saying it'll be warm or torch by any means but our window for highs in the 20s and lows below 15 is quickly coming to an end
  2. Lots of dry air aloft and things looking a bit convective. Feel like this will end up as a long period of freezing drizzle with occasional sleet when the convective showers hit
  3. popped up to 51 here today, was nice to open some windows in the house for a little while
  4. makes our 18.4" and -19.9" seem like a bounty
  5. would do anything to avoid that euro solution in terms of freezing rain. The GFS still has lower precip amounts and more sleet in the area
  6. 06z NAM gives us about 18 straight hours of sleet, with it still going at the end of the run. Only about .2 of liquid equivalent accumulation so would be light overall better than freezing rain I'd say
  7. La Crosse gusted to 62 and Rochester 60 earlier. I believe Wausau also had a gust around 60
  8. this is the first set of Snow Squall Warnings MKX has issued
  9. Arctic front now here. Winds impressive but not a huge visibility drop. Accumulating quickly on the roads
  10. early signs are that we will be right on the line between snow and mixed precip with this one, really hoping it stays just snow
  11. luckily the timing of the front and snow squalls is slowing down a bit so they won't be hitting directly at rush hour in Madison, more like 6 PM or so
  12. For a few runs now the GFS has a carbon copy of this weeks storm happening next Thursday into Friday. Can’t wait to do it all again
  13. not great here, mostly dry end to last year, barely any precip so far this winter. definitely need some soakers this spring after the frost leaves the ground
  14. GFS shows an active week next week, multiple storms ejecting from the SW trough
  15. over half my yard is now bare grass, should be down to just patches by Wednesday evening. The remaining areas are hard packed ice and snow from the last week of december.
  16. definite shift south on the 18z NAM. Really hits the Peoria to Chicago to Kalamazoo corridor
  17. Euro Ensembles favor the main cold dump to go further west, setting up SW flow over our area. There will be some cold air lurking but signs point to it being shunted west
  18. we'll be right on the edge between a solid hit and just a half inch of slop after the transition from rain, gut says this will miss south, brain says wait a day to make a call, heart says bring on the warmth next week after this system
  19. looks like -42F, east of Seagull Lake in the Boundary Waters this morning.
  20. Most of this thread has been either: talking about snowmobiling out west, reminiscing about past seasons, complaining about the lack of snow. Really paints a grim picture of the current state of things
  21. most optimistic I've been for 6"+ this year. Which isn't saying much. Moisture and temp gradient will be a plus. Will be interesting to see how much we can get the northern stream involved
  22. Today's 12z GFS shows a realistic transition from NW flow to split flow to W trough over the next couple weeks. Wouldn't be surprised to see an evolution like that play out, with a cold shot this weekend, a warm up with a cutter next week, a final cold shot around the 20th and mild air flooding in afterwards
