IOW, (just throwing it out there because I remember the weeklies did this in Dec)..it wouldn't shock me if that goes from a Nino like +PNA to a dateline or AK ridge in future runs. Of course the past does not predict the future..but just saying. Careful- I could see it with the residual ubber Nino hangover, though....we'll see.

CoastalWx Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 This is the type of pattern that could offer another March 2010 Will meltdown with a surface 33.1 and 850mb temp of 32.1F rain event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it. So much hate for others snow. To be fair my last snow survey had 14" of liquid in a 47" snowpack at 3,000ft and 6" in an 18-inch depth at 1,500ft. Last night's 2-3" needed the water squeezed from it before applying to ones nape. That's no foo foo pack. I'm most offended though by the cat remark.

CoastalWx Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Also some signs of strat pounding too. I wouldn't say reversal, but the pattern of a GOAK trough is a good one to get the punches going, and some signs of that at 10 and 50mb. Even a disruption is way better than a top to bottom black hole up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two solid storms...one was man snow and the other was arctic powder....and then the coldest temps recorded in nearly 6 decades to cap it off. It's too bad that was really the only memorable stretch until we got that crazy week in April with powdery snow falling on the seaport in Boston in midday, lol. There are definitely signs this year though that we may have some fun in February. Still a lot of uncertainty though...the Nina may try and blunt some of that El Nino look on the models as it gets closer, as Scooter as alluded to.

I thouroughly enjoyed that stretch as much as any year. if you look back on the records there is not consistent winter very often, its starts and stops around here but that ten days was very special. I appreciate each day no matter the weather but those ten days were a sweet time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
