TugHillMatt Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 You got good points there. ORD is probably has the lowest snowfall in the entire subforum with Muskegon a close 2nd! This made me cringe.... Lol That will most likely change in a day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 If SeMI gets a miss on the 25th its gonna get ugly. Only slightest positive (turd) would be busting the list of least snowy Js. Hard to be proud of that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Better enjoy what happens on the 24th/25th as it may largely get wiped out less than a week later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Better enjoy what happens on the 24th/25th as it may largely get wiped out less than a week later. yep... in fact maybe only 2 or 3 days later. That trough sharpens, narrows, and exits stage right pretty quickly. Euro is looking pretty torchy after this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That trough sharpens, narrows, and exits stage right pretty quickly. Euro is looking pretty torchy after this week. You guys crack me up. I would say the chances of a torch are close to nil, and the chances of something cutting over my head or west of here is slim as well. Not talking clippers that track along/near the Canadian border. There is a slew of things going against a torch returning/staying for any period of time starting with the MJO. Sure we could warm for a day ahead of a front but that should be the extent of it. imo Models are notorious for trying to rush things along. My hunch is temps stay below normal for much of the region going into April. Will ofcourse probably get the day or two of above normal ahead of fronts or whatever but extended torches? Not feeling it. Euro is more then likely overdoing it. Euro weeklies along with the CFS weeklies keeps it pretty cold into Mid Feb which is as far out as they go. In short i am not gonna sweat the euro or anything else that pops up a torch in the extended. Not saying it is impossible either just highly doubtful.

I don't think it's extended warmth but am concerned it will be intense enough to melt much of the snow, especially since what falls should be low water content which is much more prone to being nuked.

wisconsinwx Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 In order to get some nice cutters we will have to endure brief.warm ups on occasion, as long as snowy systems present themselves at some point in the next few weeks I will be happy.

Yeah.. That's always possible. Still i feel pretty confident that the euro etc is overdoing it with torching and storms tracking to the nw like that. Ofcourse patterns do re-load and thus when the chances go up for a brief torch or a cut to the nw. Anyways that is still pretty far out so yeah i am not gonna sweat it. See how it looks in 5 days.

We can't even get a couple of inches of snow from a clipper or a wave or something. It just refuses to snow. Could be one of the worst Januaries I've ever experienced. January 2006 is making it hard for me to say that but at least that month was a wall to wall torch with no prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 michsnowfreak? No, but I can understand his point. As far as winter-like weather, it does at least FEEL like winter outside unlike last year. We rarely discussed below average temps, let along temps in the single digits. Plus, many of us outside of NE Illinois snd SW Michigan did see at least one snowstorm that easily trumped anything the crap waves in 2011-2012 blessed us with. There was absoutely no potential winter storms to track within the 7-day range until late February in 2011-2012, then after that point winter was over. On top of that, if we can get 30"+ of snow within one February (2010-2011), then anything's still possible for this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
