JoMo Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 El Nino winter coming up. I've seen mentions of 2009/2010 (Good winter), 2002/2003 (Great winter) and 2015/2016 (Poor winter) around the internet. Hopefully the El Nino will give us more moisture and hopefully it will be in the form of snow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormdragonwx Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Seeing some analogs referring to the 1957-58, 1976-77, and 2009-10 seasons for this winter. Some interesting years there in my neck of the woods. Also an article talking about it. https://www.nwahomepage.com/news/featured-stories/your-weather-authoritys-official-2023-2024-winter-forecast/?fbclid=IwAR18RsWkMnBT3So4VZWvmcyFsixq0qvEPHMb_JCMU2QRYbg6XWeTHAXIX0E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormdragonwx Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Yeah its total wishcasting as of right now but the models are finally showing signals for snow in the area. Been doing this for several runs around the 26th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormdragonwx Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 While the snowfall doesn't look to be happening too much past the I-35/44 corridor as the models shown nearly 2 weeks ago, thats still quite impressive that they had it shown in the general area so consistently.

Just on the southeast side of Wichita and received roughly 7". One of my favorite snows of all time. Beautiful snow with large flakes and very little wind. Great start to the 2023-2024 winter as the moisture is much appreciated around here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Biggest storm in nearly a decade Wichita Eisenhower saw 7.8" of snow yesterday. This broke the daily record of 6.8" set in 1952, and was the city's greatest snowfall since Feb 4, 2014. It was the 2nd greatest 1-day Nov snowfall (1st is 8.7" on Nov 9, 1888). Nov 2023 will likely go down as Wichita's 4th snowiest Nov on record, and the snowiest since Nov 1951. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A beautiful snow, and hope there’s more coming this winter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormdragonwx Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I will be curious to see if the Southern Plains east of I-35 into the Ozarks will see a decent winter system before the year is out. There's a chance hinted at on the models around the 11th or so but that's way up in the air. I'll admit last winter kinda spoiled me after years of drought when it comes to snow. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUWX Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 There are some big hits on a few members of the Euro Ensemble. Most of the models have a big system, but lots of differences on when and where it comes together and how much cold air there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormdragonwx Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Yeah local media here is already trying to hype the Euro solution. Probably because of this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Looks like some snow showers will be possible on Christmas for some areas, probably KS most likely under the upper low. And then things might get more interesting as we head into the first week or two of Jan as it looks like the ridging over Canada starts re-developing WNW towards Alaska which should allow more cold air to get involved with an active storm track across the southern US. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormChazer Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Attention turns to January 9th-11th, looks like a consensus on cold air, now if we could just lock in the GFS at 2 weeks out that would be great, HAH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked the GFS after reading your post. Yeah. I say we lock that storm in. Gives me a little over 2 feet of snow. I could use a few weeks off work. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormdragonwx Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Pretty jealous for parts of Southern Missouri today. I was tempted to do a snow storm chase up there. Looks like areas around Springfield got 2+ inches according to a NWS report I saw. I saw a mere dippin dot on my car windshield today, NWA just barely missed it again. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormChazer Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 All 3 models agreeing on a system swinging through next weekend. Euro and Canadian say snow, GFS says no. Just rain. GFS continues to bomb out around the 10th with that storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doramo Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 We got another surprise snow after midnight last night . About 3/8s inch . Not much but I'm glad for what I got . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
