jaster220 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Went for a short drive earlier to experience the nice snowpack and I must tell ya, the main roads are a mess. I know salt cannot work in frigid temps, unfortunately, so drivers out there keep extra distance from vehicles ahead of ya. Nice huge piles from spots as I was driving around. Finally looks like January. U city types Went for a LOOOONNNGG drive across the countryside of SWMI this afternoon to soak in the absolutely gorgeous sunshine, deep azure blue arctic skies, and blinding white deep snow cover. Stellar mid-winter day and best such "day after" conditions since the final storm of March 2016. At least in the wx dept, all is right again in this part of The Mitt. So great to see peeps out enjoying their snowmobiles and blowing out their long driveways. There was considerable drifting in the open areas resulting in some of my favorite storm effects.

Tom Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 Unfortunately, my forecast for a "bomb potential" this week isn't panning out the way I had envisioned it would. The separation of energy which happens with our early week system and the gulf energy is the problem. Looking at the animation below you can see this clearly...instead, the Gulf energy rides up along the EC and turns into a strong E Canada system. This would have been a bigger storm if all the energy came out in one piece but mother nature said "not this time"...so, here we are, heading into the 3rd week of January, during the "Heart of Winter" when the seasons characteristics really stand out across the CONUS. What lies ahead??? Clipper Parade?? Any big storms on the horizon??? Following our early week system our pattern turns into a NW Flow with a stout -EPO pattern ushering in the coldest air of the season for many and along with the "Cross Polar Flow" there are a couple clippers targeting anyone from the MW and points North & East into the GL's through the end of the month. Last nights 00z Euro showed a decent clipper (Fri/Sat) targeting IA/IL into IN/OH laying down a few inches of snow. Another more interesting clipper diving down the lee ward side of the Rockies and then is poised to slow/dig across somewhere in the MW/GL's region 1-2 days later (27th-29th) which may end up being a bigger deal. The pattern remains active across the northern half of our sub, but then as we flip the calendar into Feb we see a much different overall zonal Flow....but where does it warm and who remains cold is the question??? This is where the models have now busted big time where they were stead fast at parking a trough in the East but now the -PNA is loudly being advertised as we open Feb. A more La Nina type pattern sets up across the CONUS and I believe we will see an active PAC wave train traversing our Sub Forum targeting the northern half of Sub with wintry systems and leaving the southern half in an overall AN temp regime. Thankfully, the saving grace for snow enthusiasts will be the blocking pattern setting up shop that all the models remain steady "seeding" cold across the northern/central CONUS. IMO, there's going to be a big battle zone across the heartland and many "nervous nellies" on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 With clear skies it it a very cold AM here at my house I take readings with 2 sensors and today the "cold spot" is at -12.4° and the other spot is at -9.4° at the airport the latest reading there was -8° And here at my house I have 3" of snow on the ground at this time. As for were Grand Rapids now stands for the month and winter season for snow fall. For January GR is now at 4.2" that is still well below average for this date into January by 10.0" and since December 1st the total snow fall is now at just 7.4" and that is -28.4" where GR should be at this date. And for the winter season the total is now at 12.8" and that is -21.8" below average for this date. As for temperatures even with the cold GR is still at +3.2 for the month yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 What is interesting is this clipper is much farther west on the 12Z Canadian. Too bad it will change a hundred times between now and then but at least something to track I believe that would be a separate system before the larger one you mentioned above. I think DMX mentioned this. Definite clipper parade. Let the Clipper madness begin For the record, I don't think I've ever seen a map show so much from a diving Clipper as what the GFS shows above in Tom's post.
