ILSNOW Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 What is truly amazing is if we didnt have the one snow event this board would be in meltdown mode. As is we can possible go the months of December and January with one snow event. February is going to rock !!!! corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeselandSkies Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Looking back through my photos, this is the third straight winter season to feature much below normal accumulating snowfall for much of the S WI/N IL/E IA region prior to mid-January (or if there was any of consequence such as late October 2019, it melted off before Christmas). 2018-19 wasn't stellar either, although it had a nice storm on New Year's Eve (more impressive than 2021's, at least for MBY but it likewise melted within a few days) and 2017 only pulled off a technical white Christmas at Dane County Regional with a quick just-over-an-inch on Christmas Eve. Come to think of it, that's all the winter seasons since I've been an active poster on this forum. Maybe I'm the curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to think of it, that's all the winter seasons since I've been an active poster on this forum. Maybe I'm the curse. I feel winters in our region took a different path after the Super Nino in 2015-16. Think about it. 2014-14 was the last widespread cold and snowy winter. Since then we've barely managed to get a decent winter. 2015-16 and 2016-17 were warm. 17-18 had that mid-late Dec - early Jan and 2 week Feb period of winter. 2018-19 lasted 6 weeks (mid-Jan to late Feb) and then the last two including this winter have been crap. Prior to 2015-16 we had longer lasting winters with more phased storm potentials. For example, 2013-14, 2012-13, 2010-11, 2009-10, 2007-08 etc. Just a personal opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I remember '07-'08, '09-'10, and '10-'11 all being quite active winters in the upper Midwest. '08-'09 I don't remember as well although I seem to recall there were some light snow events around Thanksgiving 2008. '07-'08 I was still going to college in Green Bay although I returned to stay with family in the Madison area for winter break; it was probably the most active wall-to-wall winter in my adult memory even including the thaw and outbreak in early January. It was 2008, 2010 and the first half of 2011 that gave me the impression that La Ninas are very active for both winter and . Then the dry, scorching and dull 2012 happened, and most of the Nina patterns since 2017 have also had long stretches of mind-numbingly quiescent periods for both types of weather punctuated by occasional diamonds in the rough. I wasn't a huge fan of 2013-'14 either, although it was undeniably very wintry. The sustained deep cold and frequent "nuisance" (1-3") snowfalls got to me, since it was my first winter at my current job with a 3 AM start time; an apartment with outdoor parking and a puny electric heating unit which had to run 24/7 for over six weeks straight just to keep my apartment bearable, sending my power bills through the roof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have actually had some snow here in SE MI and it still has been a shit winter. I don't think anyone called it a decent winter last week. What's worse the mini thaw got rid of our snow except for piles. With the rest of the month looking very cold hopefully we get a few clippers and then hopefully February once again comes through as the star month. I'm very irritated right now but that will escalate to pissed then f*cking pissed if this keeps up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1980s were not bad they just didnt have a lot of big storms (of course I don't remember, I'm just going from data). The 2nd half of the 1990s were blah city with the king of screwzone winters being 1995-96. 95-96 saw tons of snow in all directions avoid the ORD-DTW corridor. Since then we have many times jackpotted but I have never seen a screw zone like that. That said, this winter doesn't compare to that. One week of seeing systems avoid us in what has been a frustrating Winter for almost everyone is a far cry from months of being avoided in all directions, watching everyone else have a great Winter, until our surprise Mar 20, 1996 snowstorm.
