mitchnick Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 12z AI actually has possible wet snow at the of of its run today from a southern system (no surprise there) that keeps the heaviest precip south, but temps a big problem down south and marginal, at best for us. Again, temps are marginal at best even in NVA & MD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Just looking at the ensembles, and there is no real signal for a winter storm at our latitude or south through D15. Storms track to the north/northwest, followed by cold coming in behind. This makes sense given the advertised +AO/+NAO. With no NA help at all, perfect wave timing(probably a trailing wave) will likely be required to get snow here. Not impossible, but h5 and surface maps indicating cold over the eastern US on the means can be deceiving when it mostly comes in the wake of mild storms taking bad tracks. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I am all for continued drought until maybe early June at this point. Maybe once in all the years I have lived here did my seasonal woodland wetland stay dry through Spring, requiring no larvicide treatments. I would love to have that situation again. Once leaf out happens and days are longer and hotter, the water table is dropping, so even a deluge in late Spring/early Summer won't result in water lying there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, we probably see some -NAO action develop again, but not until late March/early April when it is completely effing useless, unless you want cold and damp at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Cold and snow is automatic here with cold air from Siberia flowing across the Sea of Japan. Copious snow from Dec through mid March.
