Barney says hey to E NC: holy snowcover but very likely way overdone: single digits at 1PM? No, Barney, you’re being silly! GFS has a strong cold bias over fresh snowcover. Nothing new.

This is hardly a full gone conclusion.  The pattern is volatile currently. 

We are racing against climo outside of the mountains. March snow is a thing of the past.  It hasn't snowed more a couple inches in most foothills areas in March since March 1, 2009. Winters with no snow in March for foothills areas include- 2011, 2012, 2013, 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024. 

 

Add in the fact that Nina has strengthened and we are likely looking at an above average March.

Regardless of Mar, in the meantime some of the best climo of the winter is in the last half of Feb. We still have another 2 weeks before March. Granted, it isn’t normally as good when it is La Niña. El Niño has the best Feb climo as we know. However, the pattern is anything but Ninaish with the -5 AO about to hit along with a rising +PNA to a strong one (combo typically has lingering effects). 
 
 Will there be a NW trend like is common and occurred for the 1/10-11 storm? Or will there not be one like was the case for the 1/21-2 storm? We’ll see! So far there’s no indication of an impending NW trend, which may be partially related to the rare very strong -AO.

Guess we will see you next winter then. End of winter is only 2 weeks away despite what the weeklies show.
