stormdragonwx Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Yeah looking pretty disappointing so far. 33 and rain as usual here in the Fayetteville area as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouamber Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 My brother lives in Morris, near Okmulgee, and he says they have 5 inches so far. I’m not exactly sure how it whiffed so much in Tulsa, but hopefully we get a dusting out of whatever comes tonight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NwWhiteOut Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Crazy, my backyard weather station has been going up and down in temps all day(between 37-34 degrees). Sitting at 35 still. I think this may be another non event for fayetteville here once again, maybe later we can squeeze a few flurries out Lol!! It is pouring down rain(occasional sleet mixed in) though, what a shame and what a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sat at 33-34 all morning during very heavy precip. That sucks. Doinked the game winner off the left upright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUWX Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Ended up in the 3-6’’+ warning, and going to finish with about a dusting. That was fun. Bring on severe weather season. This is a joke. Until it actually proves that it can snow here, there really isn’t any reason to pay attention. Climate change has ruined winter in this area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUWX Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 SGF cancelled the warning over 15 hours early. What a complete and total bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 23 hours ago, JoMo said: The 18z GFS didn't back down. A bit worried about that, and a bit worried about the warm nose being warmer than modeled. I don't know why Springfield can't recognize similar setups and build in a bigger warm nose than anticipated since the models frequently miss it. Similar systems have the exact same issues time and time again. Quote Warm nose aloft created an area of sleet this morning along the Interstate 44 corridor that cut down on snow amounts.

I've always thought Tulsa was worse, after living in both regions and following the weather for many yrs now. Tulsa issued a warning for Benton Co AR at 930 this morning, knowing the dominant precip type was mostly rain and sleet. SMDH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wx 24/7 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Curious to see what this next little band working through does now that temps are down to 30 here and we are losing solar radiation.

I feel Tulsa is about as bad as I ever seen. When I lived in Jersey Mount Holly was terrible too lol. Not to bash, I know how hard this stuff has to be but sometimes(like your warning lmao) its just common sense not to do some things lol. On a side note, temp is falling rapidly now...down to that magic number 33 here in the back yard. And I see giant sized flakes coming down!! Anything up there man?

I think tulsa is light years better than SGF in general, but their winter weather forecasting isn't great.

It snowed for about 2 minutes here, Im not kidding either haha.

The Waterboy Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I agree with you guys that the Benton County warning was a major head scratcher. Especially for 3-5 inches. Even if that was just for extreme western sections because that didn’t even happen. Very odd for sure. Radar and actual temps at 33-34 should have been a big clue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You, Whiteout, and myself are working on 6 years without a 4+ inch storm. Really incredible when u think about it. I'm about to the position we may be years away from seeing a big one. Maybe a freak March storm?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we are the 3 left to be unlucky ones? Its been flurrying here off and on again man lol, also a lot of returns(seems to be holding together still) coming from the SW that may give us something here in a bit!! Air should be juicy enough still too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
