Ottawa Blizzard Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Hopefully the passage of the front knocks down the rest of the leaves. About the slowest year I can remember after a strong start in late September. it's the same up here in Toronto. I wonder if it's a sign about the upcoming winter. Maybe it'll start late and end late?

michsnowfreak Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 it's the same up here in Toronto. I wonder if it's a sign about the upcoming winter. Maybe it'll start late and end late? Still have a handful of trees with colorful leaves left here, though definitely way more bare trees than ones with leaves. Well, a wise heat miser recently said that if the trees go bare early, it will be a mild winter, if leaves hang to the trees late, it will be a harsh winter. Now, granted this was said several weeks back when it looked like an early leaf drop would be had in the midwest, but weve since experienced this weird Fall where the first "round" got started quickly and the trees lost leaves quick, but the second round came later and some leaves still exist over a week into November. However I assume the old wives tale holds the same merit now as it did weeks ago, so we better be seeing an about face in his outlook, changed to a cold, snowy winter.

Chicago WX Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 A little blurb from the overnight IND AFD. Would be nice... FOR THURSDAY COLD ADVECTION CONTINUES...AS THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS MOVES ACROSS. THIS WILL ALLOW CLOUDS TO DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTH. GFS SEEMS VERY KEEN ON PLACING A FEW SHOWERS/SPRINKLES AND *POSSIBLY* SOME FLURRIES ACROSS THE NORTHERN COUNTIES...WHILE THE REST OF THE GUIDANCE IS DRY. KEPT FORECAST DRY FOR NOW...BUT THIS BEARS WATCHING AS SOME PRECIP COULD WORK IT/S WAY FARTHER SOUTHWARD THAN WHAT THE REST OF THE GUIDANCE HAS BEEN INDICATING.

dmc76 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Torching it up here! Not anymore. Front went through, expect winds to pick up temps to fall like a Rock. Last Night was unbelievably Mild. Left the house for a few around 8pm it said 65 in my truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left the house for a few around 8pm it said 65 in my truck. Yea it crazy warm at night. BBQ'd a few steaks. Little OT but wow at some of the video from Nome Alaska last night. Serious blizzard conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Rinse,lather and repeat. Looks like a warm storm at this point so maybe not much snow potential but the storm/severe potential could be interesting. Doesn't look like the Gulf will be scoured in advance and GFS/Euro are advertising very strong wind fields...in fact both have the barb of death on the 12z run. Still a long way out and we know how that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I've seen 85-90 kts a few times but these are probably the strongest 850 mb winds I've ever seen progged on land, at least in our region. Probability of verifying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 wow thats nuts...98kts. The Albany, NY sounding during the Cleveland Superbomb had 850 mb winds of 100 kts. It's gotta be pretty rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Lakes cutter around the 15th followed by cold. Lock it up. That would be the perfect track for us if it was winter and if there was any cold air. As is, the precip doesn't even extend that far NW of the low anyway.

Ottawa Blizzard Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Alaska Storm came through Nov 9-11th 1974, Eastern Lakes storm came in Nov 30th - Dec 2nd 1974. 1974-75 winter was a bust overall in these parts. December 1974 was a torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 1974-75 winter was a bust overall in these parts. December 1974 was a torch. December 1974 was Detroits 2nd snowiest month on record with 34.9" of snow! Started off with the monster 19.3" snowstorm, and the snows (many of them wet) continued through the month. It was a gray month with little temperature fluctuation (max 42F, min 6F) and naturally constant snowcover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started off with the monster 19.3" snowstorm, and the snows (many of them wet) continued through the month. It was a gray month with little temperature fluctuation (max 42F, min 6F) and naturally constant snowcover. Interesting. take a look at December 1974 in Toronto and Ottawa. Torch! Toronto: http://www.climate.w...74&Month=12= Ottawa: http://www.climate.w...&Month=12&Day=1 Now take a look at January 1975 in both cities: Toronto: http://www.climate.w...5&Month=1&Day=1 Ottawa: http://www.climate.w...5&Month=1&Day=1 I could honestly do without a winter like 1974-75 I'd prefer one like 1917-1918, which is about as likely to happen as i am to set foot on the moon tomorrow.
