TugHillMatt Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Not that it matters really and probably wont verify but the Euro had a good hit for Western UP. Courtesy of WXBell How did the Euro look for the LES for the lower peninsula at the end of the week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Lol Geos, the way it 'turned around' last year I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Mostly cold and dry locally, never actually saw 'heavy' snow while those just south and in Boston and much of New England had at least a couple significant storms. As for Cyclone's mention of solace for Minneapolis it looks like they're going to get a whopping one inch from this week's storm, certainly won't satisfy most winter lovers.

TugHillMatt Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 My two favorite webcams this Fall/early winter? have been from Tahoe and Jackson Hole, Wyoming: Tahoe (doesn't look like they got as much snow as I thought, or some melted....) http://tahoetopia.com/webcam/kings-beach-construction_cam_cafe Jackson: http://www.seejh.com/live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 LES later this week could be a sneaky one in some spots in MI? If we can get some deeper moisture. Looks like there will be good instability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmc76 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 If we can get some deeper moisture. Looks like there will be good instability. Looks like a west wind event. So some of those bands may reach MBY. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I listen to his crap too mainly for laughs but its content to help waste time in this boring weather. Actually his vid this morning was the first one I've seen since the first week I signed up. I actually watched it because someone in the MA forum said JB sounded like he was throwing up the white flag on winter. I had to check it out myself. lol. I do like the weather models on that site though. Seriously one of the best for graphics and content. I'll cancel subscription in March, like every year.

Jonger Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I remember when I used to listen to JB daily back in the early 2000's. I bought into the hype at first... That was a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Looks like a west wind event. So some of those bands may reach MBY. Maybe. Remember how much the lake coughs up in October to a 50F wind? I actually expect something decent out of this. It will be cool for a day or so.

Yeah you got shafted last winter. There was like a wall between Milwaukee and Racine that kept most of the snow south it seemed. I was just able to get over the average for snowfall. It was slow going at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I remember when JB was free. I do too. I think he was more accurate when he was free lol. He use to have a column every Saturday where he would look at the week ahead and broke the entire country into regions. It was actually a good column. The most classic videos were the point counter point he use to do with Ken Reeves, (r.i.p.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmc76 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I think if I was in the MSP area I would love this pattern. One of these storms is going to connect and it's going to be huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_4184 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 If we can get some deeper moisture. Looks like there will be good instability. About sums up our sad LES season ytd, finally get a quick decent shot of colder air but the moisture will definitely be lacking combined with veering winds should limit accumulation. Lake Superior belts will do very well however where the better rh resides. Also wanted to say this looks like a pretty good setup for Erie and Ontario. Buffalo area will see their first snow of the season?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 12z GFS actually had some snow for the western part of the subforum on Christmas Eve. Wouldn't that be a miracle. I think Buffalo will get into on Friday by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Bought a set of new snow tires for the new vehicle back in July. Was planning on putting them on around Thanksgiving. The snowstorm back in Nov hit on the 21st and made it through that on the stock tires. Since the weather has been so mild thereafter I still haven't put them on. Looks like we probably won't have to deal with driving in snow until January. May just opt to try to make it through the winter on the stock tires since a large chunk of the winter will be passed by then. Will be nice to save miles on those snow tires, as they don't last as long as all seasons. The softer rubber compound wears faster. So this warm and snowless start to met winter will help extend the life of those tires, as they will still be brand new and ready for next winter.

Jonger Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Did the NCEP models have a resolution upgrade within the last few days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Did the NCEP models have a resolution upgrade within the last few days? They changed something in the model. I don't know what exactly, it looks like the grid spacing has changed. Like they went to a NAM type grid spacing, problem with that is, every gust of air is turning into a short wave at 500mb which is clearly going to screw with the model output. I mean the long range NAM is bad, now I don't know what to think of the GFS in the long range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Warm Decembers aren't even that enjoyable if more than half the days are cloudy, foggy, drizzly, windy with temps in the 40s like this. At least it hasn't been as cloudy as last December (pretty difficult to accomplish that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 The more things change, the more they stay the same. Looks like another 'Nicky and Dime' event while it's rip city just to the south. when was your last big dog? almost feels like i'm good for a 20" er every couple years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
