I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad that were not going to be torching next week (it'll still be above normal but no 60s or even mid 50s and higher). I'll be happy if the mid February threat materializes but if it's going to be another rainstorm or nothing then I'm definitely ready to welcome Spring with open arms.

You guys know you get crappy winters every so often. You shouldn't be shocked or surprised. And honestly, after last winter, you shouldn't be upset either.

and we have to look forward to severe weather and hurricane tracking in months ahead before the winter snow potential is back again.

Yeah being in the 20s and 30s and then torching on the one day we finally get a storm would suck worse than if it just stayed in the 50s the whole time. Or being in the 30s and a cold rain.

I wouldn't expect any less given this winter. In fact I'm guaranteeing chilly or seasonal conditions followed by a miller A rainstorm, temps in the 38-42F range, then one more blast of cold weather, which in this winter would at most bring about -5F departures, if any, and then we torch.

Just got back from Budapest Hungary. It was very cold for them with highs around 20 degrees. And it's much colder further east.

It went below zero Fahrenheit as far south as Greece. They usually get some snow every year right down to sea level (the mountains get rocked, some good ski resorts over there) but that's a hell of a cold snap.

Even though the GFS operational run shows nothing, it seems interesting how the majority of the 18z (and 12z) GFS ensemble members are showing a storm potential around Wednesday... The 12z CMC FWIW also signaled for something around that time frame. It'll be interesting to see if the models lose it or keep it, as it could be perhaps just a false call as happened with a handful of other storms that showed up on ensemble members in the medium range but disappeared by the shorter range.
