ncjoaquin Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Too cold to snow here, just here, lol. Jim Cantore 1 hr · I’m sure it’s more often than I think, but how often do we see (outside the mountains) synoptic scale snow with below zero temps? Several observations from ND, SD, IA and MN have this. Obviously very high snow:liquid ratios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 You know this winter is going to be rough when you have artic cold the next 10 days and we are having to hope for the pattern to breakdown to then build into something that could work. 2 steps behind this winter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookout Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 13 hours ago, DopplerWx said: glad i saw my 5" of snow a few weeks ago in nyc, makes it a lot easier to watch these storm threats disappear. I sure am glad I saw that big snow a few weeks ago too. Also got to see about an hour and a half of snow/sleet Wednesday in gainesville...(didn't plan on being here but had to due to an emergency ) because Seeing the models showing these pretty big systems vanish with all this cold has been very frustrating but without that snow I'd be extra pissed off right now lol.

Same here. We got like 3 or 4 winters worth of snow in about 24 hours. Now watch us go 3-4 winters with nothing. THAT would REALLY suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember the last time I got over 5" of snow. Maybe 12/2010? Growing up in Cary, it seemed like we got a good storm every year.

packbacker Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I got dibs on the next storm thread! Day 10-12 definitely a signal for an AppsRubber...EPO is still negative, we have lost the bloody Cali ridge and and we have an atlantic ridge now. That will help amplify waves and hopefully stop them from accelerating off the coast. Always a good sign to see California wet with a strong EPO/AO block.
