  1. taking a look at the raw surface data, Jan 2019 definitely outshines any 10 day period in Feb 2015, at least in southern Wisconsin
  2. it's strange because I can recall numerous colder time periods here since Feb 2015, late January 2019 particularly comes to mind
  3. low 40s and full sun is starting to eat away at the snowpack, can see some bare ground on S facing yards. The past 24 hours has really overperformed temps here
  4. temp has risen up to 35 after dark with WAA continuing. First time above freezing since December 29th.
  5. Only made it down to -5 last night. S wind picked up earlier than expected and halted any temp drop. Already up to 11 on our way to around 28 today.
  6. already about to dip below 0 here, a run at the negative double digits looks possible, will be a good test of how good of a radiator my property is on clear calm nights
  7. Imagine finally retiring and getting to do whatever you want and a bunch of weenies on a weather board come bothering you to start writing forecasts and discussions again
  8. snow squall warning for the southern suburbs of Chicago
  9. Nasty morning outside. Not much accumulation but major blowing and drifting on N/S country roads and temps falling to 12 at this moment
  10. Blizzard warnings going up for SE Minnesota, should be a pretty nasty night and morning for the sub
  11. the AGW trend is more amplified extremes, you'll have multi year super wet stretches and multi year major droughts. Though the wet will tend to win out overall
  12. you really manifested it into existence. Also seasonal/AGW trends die hard
  13. made it below 0 at the house but not at MSN, only made it down to 0 there. Will have to try again later in the week
  14. will have our first subzero night of the season here, already down to 3 with clear skies and almost calm winds
  15. I'm always impressed how full sun in January can melt snow on untreated roads even with temps in the teens.
  16. Ended with .8” at the airport and .5” ish here. Blowing made it nearly impossible to measure
  17. 2012 was really dry during the summer but had some wet months in the fall and early spring. 2005 was also drier than 2012 around here
  18. We had our 15th warmest December in MSN. For the year overall it was: 10th warmest 12th driest (1976 was the last time we had a year this dry) 56th least snowiest
  19. looks cold to start. Multiple arctic air pushes in the first week. If the long range models and teleconnections are to be believe, if you want winter this is your month to get it
  20. honing in on my 1" call and I'm excited
  21. the WWA in wisconsin is for the freezing drizzle/rain threat today, not for tomorrow's storm
  22. first and final call of 1" here. look to just be on the northern fringes of this. Congrats to all to the south on significant snows
  23. GFS agrees with the NAM, wagons south
  24. Almost to the point we’ll have to start worrying about who will be measuring the snow at ORD
  25. 12z NAM is amped and NW at long range. Feels good to have at least some sense of normalcy around here
