JustinRP37 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 After a dry end to summer, dry fall, and now below average winter, the best way we bust the drought is for a few big snow storms and maintain cold. Then a slow melt in March. I am hoping this is the case. While it is a much more expensive heating winter than the past few, I am happy I pre-bought all my oil when it was cheaper. While it has been a relatively quiet winter thus far, it has been a cozy one with lots of cold around. Always love taking a deep breath of very cold air in the morning! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the guidance is correct The 10 day total includes ~0.5" for Wed night, 1-2" for Sat, and 5-6" spread out over 3 days reflecting multiple potential waves and timing differences between ensemble members.

eduggs Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 There's a pathway to a long duration wintry event next week. It's a fun look at this moment. But since it's still a week away I'm assuming reality will be something a little more common. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 We're still seeing significant run to run changes in the long-wave jet structure for next week. I don't think we are anywhere close to pinning down even a basic overlay of next week's weather. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up in a screw zone with systems prior to Feb 10 being north of us and post 10th south of us. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 The 06z GEFS showed non-trivial precipitation for 7+ days starting Tue next week. But we shouldn't expect precipitation every day. Timing differences and multiple waves are spread out across an entire week of ensemble averaging. It will be very interesting to see how this evolves in the models... will be eagerly looking for continuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I agree with Walt on that 12th-14th storm, there is definitely a risk of suppression though I think suppression is the wrong word. As I said yesterday, its more "failed phasing" or disjointed setup than it really would be suppresison 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since it's still a week away I'm assuming reality will be something a little more common. It makes me wonder why multiday storms have become so rare. Going back through history they used to be much more common (from the 1920s through the 1960s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastonSN+ Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 It seems as though there are two distinct periods for possible snow events, or time frames that are conducive to snow. The first is now through the large storm next week. Then we have a brief Southeast ridge, followed by a much colder time frame reference below. Hopefully we can cash on both 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 We don't know what's coming, particularly beyond day 10. Models could be far off with the longwave "pattern" and evolution they are advertising. The EC has one distinct snow threat out at the end of the mid-range. It also has a few minor snow threats before then. GFS and ensembles are similar but with timing differences. Depending on how shortwaves eject from the southwest US and interact with the longwave jet structure, there could be more than one "wave" of precipitation next week. I'm assuming next week will be our best shot of a big snowstorm this winter. I obviously don't know that for sure, but we can't count of anything past 10 days. Getting a good hit inside 7 days on multiple ensemble means is worth a lot more than mega blocking and fantasy storms 2+ weeks from now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do define our winters by temperatures and not the amount of snow that falls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
