Expand As beavis noted it was started in September, and at this point, it is mainly the "Winter short/medium range discussion" thread that is used for pattern discussions.

Toro99 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Looking back, there was a general winter discussion started by Hoosier last September, that was more big picture overall type thread. The medium and long range discussion was used to hype GFS storms in fantasyland. That’s my drug......Wasn’t the short/medium used to catch small systems that were not thread worthy, once they got inside a few days? Most likely I am miss remembering 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn't a thing back then like it is these days. It was a very mild 65F in the evening right after dark.

bowtie` Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 OK, I just found tenths of degrees here at KIND. Currently at meridian the Sun angle is 27.1 degrees. It will go down to 26.8 on the 19th and will not increase to 26.9 until the 24th. So still twelve days until the sun angle increases here. As a side note we are currently 91,517,000 miles from the Sun. That will continue to decrease until Jan. 2nd when we hit 91,407,000 miles and does not increase until Jan. 6th.

KokomoWX Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 So IMBY (OKK) might finish December without measurable snow. The 10 Day ECMWF is nada and the 16 day GFS is equally as bleak with just a couple of tenths for the entire period. My gosh this is a bad start.

luckyweather Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 That this is the year in play and seemingly a lock for latest measurable just sucks for a winter lover at 43n. December has been plain ugly.Still optimistic for the switch flip into 2022. GFS hinting at -nao and strong Greenland block, hints of PV disruption last week of the year, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
