hlcater Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 This winter man, some said it couldn't out due last year in suckiness, but as of now, it is in my books. This time last year I think I had 15-16" of snow. Vs not even a foot this year. Moreover, it's either rainy and 33 or 9 and brown grass. Big slap in the face when all your arctic air leaves and you have absolutely zero blocking leading to a warm cutter party for everyone. Given to the screw over that January has been, not holding my breath for February, since in December, January was gonna be the "big month." I guess we'll see, come on February, bring us a really great backloaded winter, we need it. Whining over.

Hawkeye Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Since I began recording snowfall ten years ago my lowest January snowfall has been 4.2 inches. The model trend suggests this January may end up with 0. The closest I've come to that was January 2013. That month I had nothing until 0.1" on January 20th, then nothing else until a 6.0" storm on Jan 30th. That winter went on to be very snowy after Feb 20th and didn't stop until late March.

clintbeed1993 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 My season total is still around 3 inches. 3 friggen inches! I am not in a location down south either, this is Nebraska where we average 30. Gunna need a major turnaround to avoid an extreme below average year. Luckily the pattern looks promising for this area so we will have to wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, while I'm glad that winter turned to gold for somebody, sounds like you were in a lucky but narrow corridor that benefitted from the pattern flip. Speaking personally just for SMI, my original statement is valid. IF this were to go the route 2012-13 went for Iowa, it'd be the first time I'm aware of in roughly the last 50 yrs for SMI. I did read about a winter that had a similar remarkable flip for the UP of Mich. I think it was 01-02 iirc.

He covers his arse pretty good when things don't work his way-- this year will likely be that the E.Coast worked out and will forget about the epic bust in the C.PLains for both temps and snowfall. Flake to Flake?? Yeah whatever and it's snowing again in N Africa. I wonder how many subscribers he has there? I stopped paying weatherbell several years ago and thought I would just join in OCT this past year. Glad I didn't.
