I'll take cold air anytime, and hope for a major snowstorm in between cold snaps, especially with that nasty persistent warm Pacific jet looming... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re just not noticing it because it’s the dead of winter Expand It’s been an interesting progression. The dry pattern in NJ actually started last June while places to the east were still wet from the record rains since July 23. Then everyone got dry from August 21st to November 21st. Spots from LI into CT were very wet with 10”+ rainfall totals through New Year’s Eve. January has been dry across the area as it’s tough to get much precipitation here with the Southeast Ridge suppressed. My guess is that February will be wetter than January was as the Southeast Ridge flexes like it usually does with La Niña Februaries. But if the storm track shifts back too far toward the Great Lakes, then the wettest relative to the means may go to our west. If that’s the case, then we’ll really need a wet spring in order to avoid this drought carrying over into next summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwx21 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Low temp of 5 here this morning. Gonna have 3 nights in a row in the single digits ... pretty impressive. Probably gonna finish January 4 to 5 degrees below normal for the month. An impressive cold winter month for a change. Nice that this snow is gonna stay on the ground all week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Really rare storm track with just enough cold in place along the Gulf Coast. The pattern leading up to the event wasn’t that cold in the area.There was an 81° record high a few weeks ago. It has been much warmer than the February 1895 was ahead of the previous record snow. Also notice how warm the nearby Gulf has been. 1/5 81 in 2025 79 in 2005 77 in 1955 Climatological Data for Baton Rouge Area, LA (ThreadEx) - January 2025Click column heading to sort ascending, click again to sort descending.
