Voyager Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Yes. Way too cold. I don't mind highs upper 30s to mid 40s, and low 25+. I'm seriously thinking of quitting my job and trying to find something that isn't affected by weather. Stressing about snow, and as a water hauler, the frigid cold, is just wearing on me. At 57 years old though, and trucking for over 30 of them, not sure who would hire me to start a new career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we are right back to previous years now where Voyager will not let the trough move out of his old area. It makes wild model runs from period to period.

Jns2183 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 HH GFS is a most of PA Ice Storm on Ground Hogs weekend. Stay tuned for the next evolution of the unforecastable period. We truly haven't seen a true ice storm like the 90s and early 2000s in some time. We are due for a very serious one at this point Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 This was posted in the Mid Atlantic thread in regard to the chance later next week. He makes a good point about how cutoff lows are a known modeling issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know my friend, I know. Just razzin ya a bit. Merely lamenting the GFS long range shenanigans, but I would never say we’re done in January. I don’t call curtains until April. I’m a snow junkie. I’ll take it however and whenever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, I’ll track first flakes to the last possible chance in Spring. I’m looking forward to the next trackable chance. Hopefully the cutoff later next week trends in our direction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 MDT is down to 6 at midnight. Maybe a chance of a 4th straight day with a below zero temperature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Just before 1:00am I am 5 degrees below my forecast low of 13 at 8.1 F. I'm not expecting zero or even below for a 4th consecutive night. My dewpoint is currently +4 F so I'll pick +4 to +5 for my overnight low. My high earlier today (yesterday) was 23.7 F. It really doesn't look like I've lost much snow cover from my front lawn, which faces south. If I get up close to 30 on Friday I'll definitely lose some from the front. However, my backyard has lost virtually nothing since Sunday since the majority of the yard faces north and gets almost no sun still in late Jan. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll make out better predicting sustained winds and gusts in the "burg. That's a money maker there. Btw I just mailed out the $5 in a envelope without a no return address.

Bubbler86 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Off our favorite small town, both the GFS and Euro Op's trended positively for the Ground Hog Day bash. A winter storm for this forum which all variety of precip. The track for the low to cut was shifted East again and we get over running into cold air supplied by a departing high. Not pretty but trackable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
