mattinpa Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I'm rooting for a big snow to happen next week and then a break for a week before winter closes with a bang. Even I could use a few mild days - what about everyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg ralls Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I'm rooting for a big snow to happen next week and then a break for a week before winter closes with a bang. Even I could use a few mild days - what about everyone else? That works for me, as long as we get hammered next week! For cross-country skiing, the mild days (within reason) soften up the top and make for perfect conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny and Warm Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Nah, that doesn't work for me ... we had above normal (slightly, anyway) snowfall in January 1917 here in Elko. This January we barely had any... 5th least snowy on record. Interesting that the 1917 timeframe was also when we had the last larger scale solar minimum, although this one may end up being far stronger. I wonder whether the solar min induced this La Nina. As we know, the anomolies within the zones of the La Nina area (1.2, 3, 3.4, 4 east based versus west based) play a role in how the weather plays out in different regions. For example, I've noticed that a warm 1.2 relative to other areas in a Nino creates a warm winter in the east. A west based Nino can be a great winter in the east. Maybe that is what has happened here. I was also ready this morning that the central equatorial pacific is cloudy, which it should not be during a Nina. Theory goes that that region should remain sunny and warm up as the signal for the next cycle (a Nino). That warming hasn't started, and a private prediction from a NOAA employee that works with that stuff says that he sees the Nina effects into 2012!! Story is over at WUWT.

Boreal Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Hey Mt. Holly (or, more broadly, NWS). Thanks for what appears to be a reformatting of the AFD. It is now much friendlier to mobile device users and easier to size for reading on the small screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGorse Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Hey Mt. Holly (or, more broadly, NWS). Thanks for what appears to be a reformatting of the AFD. It is now much friendlier to mobile device users and easier to size for reading on the small screen. Not exactly sure what you mean. We have been using this format in the AFD's for at least several years now (at least in NWS Eastern Region). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
