Looks like we have thermo, precip and precip type situation going on. I like the fact that the nam in its early stage is taking on a euro/gfs approach. Let’s hope the euro had it right all along.

Boy the snow line is now knocking on my door. Gonna be an interesting next couple days moving forward! I'm just glad to see the amount of moisture with the system. I'm at the point where I don't care what I get, just give my area precip!

Same exact thing a farmer that was around during those times told me! He said the 50's was worse than the 30's but they learned what not to do!

Interesting article about the current state of the drought in my area. I never realized some places are running 25-30" below average for the year! Ever since the floods here of 2019 we have been running below. I have talked to a lot of old timers and obviously the 30's stands out as the worst. Some farmers I have talked about said the 50's was worse. We are currently there right now. Gonna take a lot to get out.

God has gifted us with what appears rain coming out of the sky! Been light pretty much since 3 today. Checked my gauge when I got home from reffing and sitting at .55". Sucks it's not snow but this is the most rain I have seen since October so I'll take it! -

.10" for me. I watched the radar last night; as the rain lifted up into the worst of the drought stricken area it was like a wall. You could see on radar holes forming. Just can't catch a break in my area. -

Pretty sure we won't be able to see though. I'm thinking you have to be a paid subscriber to see? -

Absolute comical how the drought continues to show its ugly face. You can't make that up; nice solid strip of nothing right thru my area. Looks like things will only get worse around here if storms continue to do this. -

Well just another disappointment in the drought stricken areas of eastern Nebraska. Unless wrap around brings more will end up well short of forecast. Drought breads drought. -

Need this so bad! We are starving for moisture in my area. I haven't seen over an 1" of rain in over 2 months. -
Wow very nice job!!! Lots of good information there.

Just bad luck for my area in terms of the drought conditions. This is one of the longest stretches with being in the worst category from what I can remember. Obviously you don't bust a drought in the winter; just hoping we can stay at average or just above for the winter months otherwise next spring will be in a bad bad situation around here. -
Big thing I remember was the nao and ao was negative pretty much all winter.

For those of you who are interested in understanding the LRC here is a snap shot. This was from back in 2018-2019, I took a screen shot of the storm system that affected us in Oct of that year. The other image is when the bomb cyclone hit my area that March. Pretty remarkable how the systems not only resemble each other; the storm almost hit on the same exact date 5 months later!
-
I remember that really well. We had halloween canceled that year I was so mad! We had that really cold stretch at the end of Oct. into Nov. but then after that the rest of the winter was a blow torch. I think it was like 70 on x mas that year.

Getting hit by wrap around precip. I may end up with .5" after all is said and done. Disappointed my area missed out on the heavy rain and severe weather but glad to see a strong system in our area. I think this might be a signature storm in the future for a lot of us.

Might be in there for a while!

Not good for our area either. Dry slot city; hoping we can get something out of this other wise the dry spell continues for Eastern Nebraska. I don't have the ability to pin I tried it. I'm wondering if moderators can be the only one who can do that?
