You want everyone on here giddy and excited for something 2 weeks away knowing there is a decent chance nothing happens? No idea what you want when you do this. It doesn't make sense to me. People will get excited when its imminent. Most weather weenies don't care too much about chilly low temps with no snow on the ground. Just the way it is.

AbbyJr Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 5 hours ago, Phil said: The precursor patterns were strong in 2017/18, 2018/19, and 2020/21. All culminated a major SSW events that culminated in bonafide “blocking” patterns that redirected RWTs, which is how they delivered in the PNW and elsewhere across the NH. There is nothing even remotely close to that going forward. To the contrary, the upcoming NH pattern will help strengthen the PV/TPV and lock up the arctic airmass in the high latitudes. Even though it’s a “cool” pattern for the west, it will become progressively less continental (and less cool in general) as the polar airmass gradually retracts. And may eventually end up warm/zonal altogether. The pattern may grow more favorable for upward wave driving during the second half of February, but that pattern itself is associated with warmth in the PNW/other places. So that pattern, should it manifest, will take at least a couple weeks to knock out the vortex, at which point we will be into March. Not ready to close the curtain just yet, but it’s getting close. It would be nice to get a March 1951 repeat in the PNW. Here was the 500mb pattern for March 5th, 1951: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLI snowman Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Kayla said: I still think you are generalizing it too much. The Plains have also done quite well. It's really just the northern corners of the country that have had limited snowfall/cold. Really gotta disagree there. Chicago has only had 13.7" of snow with little or none in sight. They're pretty far from either northern corner of the county. And the Plains south of Nebraska haven't done well at all. Wichita is sitting at 3.9" of snow and Kansas City is at 4.7". With a historically warm midwinter stretch. The northernmost regions of the Midwest that aren't reliant on cold air availability at all have done well with the poleward-skewing storm track. Ditto for some of the high elevation areas in the Intermountain West. Otherwise it's been a warm and forgettable winter for most of the country, with a mild February looking increasingly likely.
