Chicago WX Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hopefully it doesn't get boring for 3 weeks after this system. It won't. It might not be like this system, and it may not be white...for us, but I think activity is on the increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indystorm Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 For those that don't already know, LOT is having some QC issues with their 88D. Their reflectivities have been running up to 10dbz too high. Good to know since there are some 75 dbz pixels nw of Ottawa on those LOT radar loops.

indeedinger Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Quite the storm going on right now here - moderate rain, a little small hail, pretty constant thunder and lightning. It's April, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Wow, take a look at January 1950 in Toronto. Talk about a rollercoaster ride of temperatures! http://www.climate.weatheroffice.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_e.html?timeframe=2&Prov=ONT&StationID=5097&dlyRange=1937-11-01|2013-01-27&Year=1950&Month=1&Day=01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 This January was colder than last January... If you average both months out, it was a comparable Dec-Jan overall. Not a good winter... February will determine which winter gets the nod for being less craptacular. That's still up in the air here. January 2012: http://www.climate.weatheroffice.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_e.html?timeframe=2&Prov=ONT&StationID=5097&dlyRange=1937-11-01|2013-01-27&Year=2012&Month=1&Day=01 January 2013: http://www.climate.weatheroffice.gc.ca/climateData/dailydata_e.html?timeframe=2&Prov=ONT&StationID=5097&dlyRange=1937-11-01|2013-01-27&Month=1&Year=2013&cmdB1=Go&Day=6 Look how close the two months are in terms of mean temperature! With the torch over the next two days, this January may finish warmer than last January!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 This January won't be close to as warm for LAF, compared to 2012. Not even close. But it'll be much less snowy. Jan 2012: 31.9º Jan 2013: 25.9º through yesterday We'll add a full degree to 1.5º in the end, but yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Toronto, this winter has essentially been identical to last year, except with less snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up to 43 here, but about to make a big jump in the next hour or two. MLI now up to 52 as of 2304z. 10 degree rise in a little over an hour. Pretty impressive for late evening. Still only 43 here, so the warm front is somewhere between the QC and here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Models had showers and storms hitting much of eastern Iowa this evening, but most locations have missed out.

cyclone77 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 LOL, MLI up to 56 at the new midnight ob, which is only 1 degree short of the daily record. Safe to say it's gonna be history before the day is out. Up to 49 here just before midnight, which will be the high for the day. Fog still very dense here, but interestingly the vis on the new midnight ob in MLI is at 10 miles. Expect substantial improvement in the dense fog here over the next hour.
