BLI snowman Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 I do have a feeling that deep western troughing may be a frequent guest this spring, though. Glad the regime kicked into gear early enough that we are still able to snow some decent cold and snow out of it. Just imagine if we had been able to get this pattern in mid May! #ohwell 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 I think it boils down to this: People just want you to STFU. Enjoy your vacation. Quit pissing in our Cheerios while snow is on the ground. Yellow snow sucks. I get hundreds of 'likes' on my cold and snow posts and my lowland snow maps and my excitement over others getting snow. No one tells me to STFU then. One post about what I would love to happen in the future and then somehow I am pissing in their cheerios? Am I that important?? If I said everyone was stupid for wanting snow and it will never snow again and this is not a cold pattern... that would be pissing in their cheerios.

Jesse Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Should make for a fun spring for most. Hail and lightning, can't beat that for Spring.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yeah, I would think so considering we'll being working on three straight weeks of an unseasonable pattern by that point. It makes sense, and I think most of us will be ready for it by then. Hopefully this is one of those springs with some sharp troughing and some good ridges in between.

Esquimalt Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Beautiful and sunny today, with a ton of snow still on the ground (some melting, but to be expected). Temps are around 35 or 36. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR.SNOWMIZER Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 The next few systems are ripe for CZ development once they move through. With temps being so on the edge, a CZ would greatly help drive the snow level down and drop surprising amounts even for those without elevation. Almost all models show at least one, some multiple, CZs over the next few days. That potential alone has me excited.This is where models struggle the most when we start bringing some onshore flow into the mix. Today will just help for tomorrow night with this nice shot of dry air. Some places will end up with more snow than predicted almost for sure of that. I have great shelter from the sw winds over here so that helps massive. Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
