Not sure how if it's because these are more S Stream vs N Stream waves or what exactly, but NAM's been money even at it's even way out at h84 which wasn't traditionally the case.

jaster220 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Per AFD The next storm system that may lead to impacts is show to move inon Saturday with snow. There is some lift and deeper moistureshown with this weak storm that tracks eastward through the state.Thus an increased risk for impacts exists. Temperatures will fallsteadily behind this departing system for Saturday night intoSunday. Based on the forecasted winds behind this system the lakeeffect impacts could be aimed toward the southern end of Lake MISaturday night into Sunday.

Tom Posted November 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 While I was in Chicago this evening, near downtown, there was light fluffy snow falling. It was a nice surprise to see even though I wasn't expecting to see any snow today. This has been one of the more exciting Autumn patterns I've been fortunate to track and study. The latest Euro Weeklies have come in and they still show the relaxation of the pattern Thanksgiving week, but then it turns stormy and colder to close out the month. December is gonna rock...hands down...knowing what the JMA seasonal showed today, the Euro weeklies are heading that way as well. Very fun and exciting pattern ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabel23 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Call me crazy but it appears the gfs is shifting towards a more southerly and blocky appearance in the long range. Might be a response to the AO and NAO crash now showing up or the beginning of a new cycle.

I've been watching that for a while now cuz it could affect my family plans, as I'll be out there for Thanksgiving, but it never occurred to me that I should try and think how that will affect here down the road. Will it be cold enough for snow to be the dominant ptype? I don't think so atm, but it's 2 weeks out. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Temps were supposed to fall like a rock tonight, yet it quit falling at around 10:00. 14.5°F.Yeah I noticed that temps only fell into the mid teens around here last night (forecast low was 10). The lack of any real snow cover around here (most of what was left here melted on Sunday) seemed to have kept the low temperatures in check. Looks like a more seasonal and boring pattern is taking shape to end the work week, with another mostly dry cold shot over the weekend.

Tom Posted November 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Well, there goes that chance of any "warm up" around these parts during Thanksgiving week. Unless your in the central/southern Plains or the high Plains of the Dakotas, the high lat blocking setting up is the real deal. I'm impressed how this pattern is evolving and the transitional week next week is gearing up to be just that, a major transition towards high lat blocking, a highly amplified and blocked up pattern which will create an ideal storm track from coast-to-coast. Not only that, but we are heading back into a colder pattern post Thanksgiving. 00z EPS trended much colder across the Plains later next weekend into the last week of November which shifts east as well. All indication from the modeling is for the STJ to churn up right around 11/22. FWIW, the 00z snow signal has some encouraging signs that the snow chances are on the rise post Thanksgiving for nearly everyone on here...believe it or not. Just in time to put up the Christmas decorations and have nature put on the final touches. I'm monitoring 2 storm systems: 1) Black Friday period 2) 11/25-11/28 (this one has an intriguing look for a biggie) Are we on the verge of a SSW event around the 11/22 timeframe??? Boy, the Euro, along with other modeling is showing a blossoming warming event across Russia/Siberia around Day 8-10. This, will be a big deal as we head into December. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks and feels like the dead of winter. I’m stocked and loaded for what this winter brings, although I’m a little cautious about snowfall up this way. Ice box winters don’t really bring the goods in terms of snowfall. 2013-2014 is a recent exception however. We had a pretty good winter last year with the snow, so I can’t complain if the storm track is stuck south of here which I think may happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Canadian showing what looks like 2 waves coming in back to back with a long continuous light snow event that piles up pretty decent over the weekend. http://maps3.pivotalweather.com/maps/models/gdps/2018111312/144/snku_acc.us_mw.png 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud2380 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 UK has the same clipper, but further north that the Canadian, fairly similar to the GFS. maybe a bit more north. Also a bit quicker, looks like it comes through Friday night into early Saturday AM. Something to keep an eye on the next couple days.

jaster220 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Great write up by the NWS in KC. "If the snow seemed like it came early this year, you are right. Not only did we have the first measurable snowfall on record for KC on Oct 14th, but there has only been 3 years in KC's 131 year history that we have had 3 measurable snowfall events by 11/12... 1898, 1992, and now 2018!

jaster220 Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Very picturesque snow fall overnight. Car was a glued-on pile of ice, but otherwise it was Courier & Ives scenic on my way to work this morning. Nicely, with the moderate rates and low-moisture content flakes mostly melted on the concrete so no real issues on the drive. 3 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBadgersW Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 GFS with some snow showing up on Saturday. The clipper is looking a little more potent on this run. http://maps1.pivotalweather.com/maps/models/gfs/2018111312/114/sn10_024h.us_mw.pngThat would make for an exciting NCAA cross country national championship in Madison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Houston received its earliest snow on record today, smashing the previous record by about 10 days. 5 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.
