Sure, we have been lacking the big monster coastal storms the past 4 years, but this feels like it will be an avg winter at the very least for us here. I will take that in a Niña for sure. Was thinking that today on my way home from work. I got a 10 inch snow/sleet storm in December. Temperatures have been mostly in the 35-45 degree range up until this point. If we get a storm or two during our favorable period in January and possibly a quick hit of arctic air we will be about average. Maybe we can time another event in February or March to keep us happy. It would be as close to normal a winter that I can think of. This wasn’t going to be a snowy winter. I think just average/normal is a win.

RedSky Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If we don't get score something of significance in the next 10 days(at least advisory level) we will have failed monumentally in the post December snow period. Such a tease to have an early snow and get in a rut like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now of course if there is a MECS the last week of January all is forgiven. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTA66 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Yeah, I'm riding the "nothing good was supposed to happen until after 1/15" train for now. Even then, it may be a brief window. Who knows. I do have a hunch if anything good does happen, it won't be a long track event, something will pop in the 72-96hr timeframe. All that said, I do remember where I left the towel last year in case I need to dig it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenmsav6810 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Too early to Weenie jump. All the ingredients are in place. The only thing that worries me is the persistent warm day time temps and the above normal rainfall. We're already ahead compared to a few of the last winters.

Here it is, I lowered my standards : - I expect nothing before the 25th but temp highs will lower gradually. - 1/25 to 2/5 a storm 4" (maybe more) - If this doesn't pan out...screw it. I'll start collecting seashells or stamps as a hobby... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pattern with the cold air establishing in our source region is just starting in 3 days. Im cautiously optimistic. If we fail, so be it. If we score then I make naked snow angels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
