  1. raods and sidewalks are covered now but the grass is still showing. definitely a bit of a north south gradient in the Madison area
  2. why not, lets roll with the GFS on this one. 12" total with the WAA and then defo a day later
  3. DVN had a pretty funny situation this morning, Winter Storm Warning for 3-5 inches while the Winter Weather Advisory was for 4-6 inches
  4. Interesting evolution. We get hit with the lead shortwave/WAA on Friday and then are shut out the rest of the weekend
  5. 4.5” final call. Let’s stack some dendrites tomorrow
  6. 12z GFS holding serve with its more southerly path
  7. Going to end with about a half inch here. Ground is mostly white
  8. Update: they haven't posted a video today so not sure if they've considered adding 1899 as an analogue
  9. Have some blowing dust in the farm fields by my house. Pretty unusual for February
  10. BAMwx says a mix of Feb 1985 and Feb 2021. Stay tuned!
  11. NAM and NAM3km always underdo temps in the winter and early spring. Especially in dry weather. They don’t mix the boundary layer enough and seem to overcompensate for snow cover too
  12. starting to see some trends for the month of Feb. People who know more can expand and correct me. There will be some high latitude blocking that will give the Polar Vortex a jolt in about a week. Alongside a -AO/-NAO we will likely get a longwave trough in the E/C US. With increased warmth to the SE there will be storms tracking along the baroclinic zone which should give some chances of snow. The SE ridge will not be very strong though, so I wouldn't expect major storms tracking through our region. What will be likely though is below normal temps from about 2/10-2/24. At this time it's not guaranteed that we will have a SSW or have a split polar vortex, in fact there are signs that the disruption will be short lived and the PV will bounce back to strong levels. This means that the cold and blocking would not be favored to last into the month of March.
  13. Madison tied for the driest January on record with 0.10”. Also the late month warm up got us to +0.2 F over average
  14. Strong north winds on a late January afternoon and the temps are in the mid 40s. These subtle things are the surest signs to me that the baseline has changed
  15. up to 57 at least. broke the daily record by 10 degrees. only 1 off of the monthly record so may have tied that, will have to see the daily climate summary come in
  16. looking like we'll break the record high on Thursday. it's 47 and the point has us in the low 50s
  17. I will say one benefit of this winter is the extra sunshine from the CAD conditions. Of course the portion of my morning commute that faces eastward at 745 AM is a downside of that
  18. Overperforming nicely. Point had 32 but already up to 36 with a couple more hours to warm up
  19. Down to -11. Should be in the low 20s today and the mid 30s tomorrow
  20. Tanking already. Down to 3 above. Might put up a big number tonight
  21. roads a bit slick this morning, may get up to an inch by evening
  22. -14 here. Might squeak out -15 but warming should commence shortly
  23. -7 this morning after a high of 4 yesterday. pretty cool phenomenon outside right now. There are streaks of virga at low levels but they aren’t falling from any cloud base. Just suspended there
