Harry Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Perhaps a little, Im sure that was negligible. the drifts were massive, Ive seen pictures from my uncles mom, but I only have the one my mom took.

snowstormcanuck Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Damn. Can we make it the next 6? BC you will be getting 30"+ of snow I won't count Hoosier because I'm 90% sure he's a robot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hoosier Winning ticket sold in Lafayette, Indiana. COULD IT BE?????? Nope...I didn't buy a ticket though I would've if I had known it was that high. This will probably be a big story around here. Will be interesting to see who sold it.

cyclone77 Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Now entering our 13th day in a row without measurable snowfall. We had a 3 week hot streak, but it's been really quiet on either side of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwxguy Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 00z gfs took away the storm for my area on the 10th-12th and kept it farther west, which is what i did for the past system that came through around new years,. Will be interesting to see if it brings is back or keeps it west the next few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 looks a tad nippy in western canada. I guess the question remains, where is that headed? Just a tad. Hard to read, what is that, -40C there around the Nunavut/Manitoba border? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 looks a tad nippy in western canada. I guess the question remains, where is that headed? The ECM op and ensemble mean has a developing intense shortwave acting as the opening to the "gates of the arctic". Likely what you would see, if you extrapolated in time the ECM op/mean 500 hpa/850 temperatures, is an increasingly amplified trough with cold air advection spilling into the plains. MN/WI and the Great Lakes are a bullseye for the really cold stuff if you extrapolated the ECM into the future. Just a tad. Hard to read, what is that, -40C there around the Nunavut/Manitoba border? -36 C 850 was the coldest I saw off the ECM website--easier to read there. Colder than the GFS at 850 at the same time. Either way, this cold outbreak could be one of the most impressive in a while for parts of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colder than the GFS at 850 at the same time. Either way, this cold outbreak could be one of the most impressive in a while for parts of the country. Here is the mean: You have to look at the loop to see how the trough is developing with time, but it does look as if it is amplifying. This suggest low level cold air advection decreasing with height. In other words, the low level arctic front is "seeping" south. Why is the trough not "digging" through the intermountain W in this configuration? The shallow nature of the front, in this case, is not able to pass over the Rockies and through the intermountain W. The mountains "block" the orderly flow of cold air advection typical over flat land, and as a result, extreme arctic outbreaks are rare in the intermountain W. The strong surface pressure gradient in the OP MSLP suggests this as the low level flow is "blocked" by the Rockies and "bunches up" in the plains--hence the strong surface pressure gradient.

IWXwx Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Wow, it's really trending toward suckage around these parts. Looking like a "dusting at best" clipper, then a decent LES event to watch (but not participate IMBY), then the deep freeze. Thinking back to November, this is not how I was envisioning the middle of winter for this part of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Luckily, we are not yet to the middle of winter The dead of winter is still 3 weeks away! Haha. I'd say dead of winter is January 20. The day in which half of our annual average snow has fallen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Surprise snowfall in Madison today, steady light snow currently and it's accumulating decently. Heaviest snow band is moving into WI now and will affect Madison. It would appear to be frontogenetic in nature since the precip pattern is quasi-linear, but the forcing must be at some level not usually analyzed. As I wrote this the snow increased to moderate, and we're not even near the main band yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
