I think it's a little early to stick a fork in the entire month yet. There will be an unquestionably bad pattern after the weekend ice "threat" for at least a week, but the longer range models and ensembles are already hinting at the AK vortex going away and being replaced by ridging for the last week of the month...so we could sneak in something late in the month. We've been pretty good at popping that Aleutian ridge this winter when the Pacific jet has retracted, and we'll see if that happens again late this month.

wxdudemike Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Went out to an unexpected thin layer of pixie dust on my car this morning...Interesting. Definitely watching this weekend closely. As of now, appears that any icing down here in Cincy would be short lived and washed away by rain pretty quickly. However, this setup has the potential to be very nasty for someone in our area. I would say folks northwest of Cincy (MO/IL/IN) stand the best shot at major ice but we are still in the game. And that is not a game I want to be in....

HighTechEE Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Was checking the long range for the end of next week which is when the Hocking Hills 52nd Annual Winter Hike is scheduled for Sat the 21st (http://thehockinghills.org/Park_Event_Winter_Hike.htm), man is it looking fugly! I know the 06zGFS is an outlier, but come on, we're going right through the core of winter and not one 850 is below 0c for the next 16 days!!!! Looks like falling in the mud will be the rule this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For this weekend's storm? 1. Still early. 2. Uncertainty of how far south the front reaches and how far north it retreats and spreads precip.

Exactly what happened, but yesterday's 12z NAM/RGEM/GGEM were the only models heavy on QPF. Actually most have decreased from the lower totals they were showing earlier in the week.

Also, looks like temps down here by the river may struggle to even dip below freezing. ILN also referenced the METRo road model which doesn't show road temps dipping below freezing. I still think the advisory is a good call to be safe but it really is not looking bad down here. Farther north towards I-70 still looks good for a light glaze.

Chambana Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Aside from a few counties near the lake in Illinois and Indiana, December averaged out to normal across most of the Midwest. January should finish above average, espicially if the euro is to be believed next week (widespread 60s) either way torchy next week. February will once again need to play hero and save the winter, and deliver in a big way. I don't see that happening, feel like spring will win the battle early this year, maybe I'm wrong. I'm closing in on 2 years now without a snowfall greater than 6". And 10 years without a snowfall greater than 12". Winters since 2011 (2013-2014 aside) have been very subpar around here. Even the winter of 2014-2015 which was cold, we tied December for the least snowiest on record in 2014 with a measly T recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vespasian70 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I don't want to say we can stick a fork in this winter and call it done, but the pattern flip at the end of the month better be epic. The heart of winter and we are looking at 60s. No wonder the board is quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
