January 31-February 2 Major Winter Storm part 3


Hoosier

Recommended Posts

I doubt this will transfer. I bet it will be a full blown lakes cutter. TX style panhandle hooker. Going down memory lane of 99 blizzard and Dec 11,000 snowstorm. Took similar tracks to this one we might end up seeing. Could it be the 3rd Chicago blizzard of 2011 all-time?

I bet the GFS will continue to trend more NW and show a more narrow stripe of deformation band of snow.TROWEL set-up.

I think your safe where you sit now but any more of a north trend and you would have to worry about it. It always seems like the warm push from around 700mb-850mb is underdone but we'll see.

quite the turning in the wind profile! too bad its not spring!

Hope you're right. It's already borderline on the GGEM and especially Euro. Seems like the NAM is able to resolve the waa better so I'll be interested to see what it shows when it gets in the timeframe.

you are certainly having a steller season compared to us canuck. When's the last time you can remember Toronto getting more snow than Ottawa in a winter?

I can't imagine there was ever one. We tend to be in the same boat. If it's a bad winter there, it's a bad winter here, and vice versa. Climo takes it from there to ensure you have more snow in both scenarios. This might be a first, but I'm confident you'll pull it out in the end.

I hope you're right! I remember the Dec 11th storm, my first snow day! As for Jan 1999, don't remember it but believe it was over a foot of snow here.

I love how all the Ohio people are saying weaker/farther southeast and all the midwest people saying stronger/farther nw. Gonna be a long few days.

Just let it all play out.

lol...

you have to understand...since we are the southeastern most zone of our region, we are outnumbered severely by those rooting for nw or a gfs hold. I gotta do what i gotta do...and if it means pulling the nocraps out of my asss, i will

it's all good. :snowman:

They get that way because while guidance has suggested a north movement to this, everything but the euro is quite a bit colder and south. the gem and GFS ensemble means suggest a I70 major snow storm with ice all the way into Kentucky and Arkansas.

the OP's are warmer and north but still have a major ice and snow storm for I 70.

then the euro is by itself and is warm and rain. Yet all the talk is a Lakes cutter and big snow.

I can understand why it can get extremely frustrating to listen to when your from Ohio where that solution brings you rain and warmth and the rest are colder and wintry....

I like it where it is... a blend of all would be perfect here.

Friv, relax...take a deep breath. This thing is far from settled with respect to who gets what and how much. Despite that, everyone wants their backyard to be the bullseye...there is no denying that. Regardless, it doesn't mean that if someone says it over and over, without any reason, it's going to happen that way. The big weenies come out with the potential big dogs. :unsure: Just let it play out, discuss the possibilities with everyone and don't let any BY bias get to you. You're better than that. :)

Seasonal south trend FTW :thumbsup:

It could happen but we're not in the blocking regime we were in. This looks more like the systems we saw in the last couple Ninas, and any significant southeast trends were hard to come by then. If something gets screwed up in the phasing process, then it becomes more likely imo.
