osubrett2 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 These next 7 days is when 2016-2017 will pass 2015-2016 in terms of futility for Columbus. To date, 2015-16 tallied 6.8" of snow. By 2/16/16, CMH recorded 13.2" for the season. To date, 2016-17 tallied 7.6" of snow. By 2/16/17, CMH will remain at 7.6". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Met winter so far. Classic cold west, mild eastern 2/3 of country. Once February is finished, really going to paint a warm winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some warning signs going in that it could end up being a warmer than average winter, but it looks like it's going to end up warmer than even what I was thinking on the top end.

They may rain a little this weekend but they have a KILLER WEENIE wet dream pattern setting up overall for the next 10 days with opportunities for exploding clippers dropping in northeast of us. Meanwhile, as I look out at my windswept 1" of snow, and stinging windchills, (indistinguishable from the stench of this ongoing dumpster fire of a winter).... I finally have some good weather news this winter: Next week as the positively tilted deep trough set in over the east with the axis over the OV causing dry cold and precip misses to our northeast and south....

Crispus Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 22 hours ago, Snowstorms said: Each day I'm losing more and more hope in seeing another 4"+ snowstorm for the rest of Winter. I know the bar is set low, but you learn after all the disappointments over the last couple of years. Nice to see NYC-Boston getting their first major snowstorm of the Winter, but also disappointing too considering the fact they've been doing great these past few years. Makes me question, when will it be our turn? After each disappointing Winter I always end up telling myself "don't worry maybe next year", and I swear its become an ordinary thing now as its been a really long time. Short rant, sorry but when you see 4 record low Winters, a potential 5th maybe this Winter, in a span of 10 years, it can get to you. I agree. And I know it's probably an overreaction, but I'm wondering more and more if climate change is going to alter what's 'normal' for all of us, weather-wise. Maybe it's a short-term blip...but maybe it's also the beginnings of a new long-term trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that smash the vortex stuff east doesn't pan out. Probably a good idea to drop any thoughts of an early phased solution. Looking at the 51 EPS members, only 1 showed that scenario.

michsnowfreak Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I don't mind one northeast snowstorm as they've had very little winter. Three? No thanks. I do think we may have a big snowstorm in March. Just a gut feeling. But big March snowstorms are more frequent in the lower Lakes in nino/nina then neutral. Plus chicago is mega due..so hopefully that will hit us too lol. Start and end winter with a big snowstorm and a non stop roller coaster in between.

Assuming Feb '17 continues mild (which it looks to at least through week 3)... this will be the 18th consecutive month with above normal temps... only 5 of last 33 will have been below normal.

cyclone77 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I wonder how this season's thread count compares to past seasons. It has to be waaaaaaaaay lower than all the others. Widespread lack of snow, and underwhelming storm systems in general have kept the thread production to a minimum this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far we've had about a dozen storm threads for snow/ice. That is several behind last winter at this point, which obviously wasn't a banner winter.
