This carrot has been dangled a few times already. Any individual area may be cynical and skeptical until they see results, but its certainly not a stretch to see how the aforementioned changes in the pattern would give the northern stream a more active look.

mimillman Posted Monday at 04:51 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:51 PM Friday could put down our first lasting ground coverage of the season. Outside of the November snow which melted same day, ground has been bare all year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can score 2"+ this weekend id be thrilled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago916 Posted Monday at 04:57 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:57 PM At least this next potential storm we can all just root for better phasing and negative tilt to benefit us all and possibly screw the Northeast? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really care about the northeast unless it affects us directly. Most of the east coast has been in a far worse snow drought than us the last several years. The glory days when the lower Great Lakes and northeast were getting season after season of above to well average snowfall and it was always "f*ck boston" and stuff like that is now about a decade removed. Just. Give. Me. Accumulating. Snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question. I’m just not sure that those changes transpire based on what we’ve see so far. Also the possibility of the track to be too far north or west..

Also the possibility of the track to be too far north or west. . Some of the positives of the projected pattern change. A much colder Canada (and a warming southern US) will likely produce a more traditional La Nina pattern. Its easy to forget as its cold out, but Canada is actually unseasonably warm right now. This would likely give a much more active northern stream and possibly even a Nina gradient, which can be a real treat. Often a storm tracking too far to your N & W will happen, but the pattern is so active you chalk up the L and wait for the next one. I can assure you, one rogue snowstorm well to the south in an otherwise sea of zzzzs with frozen, bare ground dominating the north is NOT a traditional Nina. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just. Give. Me. Accumulating. Snow. Yeah I feel that. Just would love to be able to root for something at this point. It does look like we'll stay active through the end of the month with storms traversing our region. Hopefully some pan out! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radtechwxman Posted Monday at 07:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:21 PM Euro keeps the next one south but gfs is more spread the wealth. Given how gfs just performed poorly with current system I'm skeptical. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocATL Posted Monday at 08:02 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:02 PM Euro keeps the next one south but gfs is more spread the wealth. Given how gfs just performed poorly with current system I'm skeptical. Euro has done much better and based on the pattern we’re in this makes more sense. The next system will want to follow closer to the path of the last one.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little bit of both. But in all seriouaness, I'm always down for a Big Dog, and this one has above-average potential (similar to Feb. 2010 for Dallas). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocATL Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Goodbye Dallas snowmageddon on the 0z GFS. Trending away from much of anything for Chicago and Detroit. Nice reinforcing event for areas just hit with this weekend’s storm. Otherwise, rinse and repeat.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeenerWx Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago Don't mind being nickel and dimed away from the hellhole that was the 23/24 season. Finding myself more appreciative of any amount of snow nowadays. Sort-of a nice reset insomuch that this is simply a hobby-interest. Only 4" more to surpass last season. Seems a rather doable task given latitude and remaining time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
