OKwx2k4 Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 The next 4 weeks are going to be horrible if it doesn't snow. I'd rather get ridged out for the next 4-6 weeks then endure any more fruitless nonsense down here. I love the weather but snowless, boring, ugly, cold and wet is just stupid. Is it March yet? If I wanted to be depressed 10.5 months a year and have only the worst parts of fall and spring over and over and over and "oh blazing death! Woohoo!!" and over and over,... I'd move to Seattle. I'm thinking about petitioning the Thunder (formerly Supersonics) to go back home and take their stupid weather with them. Geez. We're sorry already. What do you want? I'm okay. Lol.

mlgamer Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I'm beginning to think Oklahoma and Kansas are pretty much done for this winter. Most of the real snow action has been to the north and east of here and I think it will stay that way. We've only had 17.2" of snow in Topeka this winter which is nothing to write home about in my book. As they say in sports..."maybe next year". (This is a win-win post. If I'm wrong, it means we cashed in on some late season snow.) 1 Quote 23-24 seasonal snow total: 17.8" (as of 3/9/24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year looks a little better here because the previous four winters were awful.

Stormy Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 I’m still around, but haven’t been keeping up with this forum the last few days. Snow was ripping pretty good for awhile this forenoon while I was at church. Picked up 1.5” & 0.16” liquid. I’m amazed how ice covered the gravel roads are around here. Pretty much a solid sheet of ice with some snow on top now! Heard of my nephews & others ice skating down the rural roads last week ever since that last sleet/frz. rain episode! Didn’t seem that slippery at first with the sleet making a rougher surface, but it kind of smoothed down I guess. Well I’m invited out for supper so will get further behind here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gimmesnow Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 After a really crappy start to February, it looks like I am going to have some potential powder days coming up. Though it's going to be a little warm, I hope this stuff that's coming can deliver something light and fluffy. Last week was definitely the first bout of "holy crap Winter is almost over what happened!?! There's only a few more weeks left!" No matter what, they pretty much always shut down the hill out here second weekend in March, even if winter is still here the sun angle is too much and everyone has given up on winter by then.

Tom Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Surprised that I'm seeing some light LES flurries this morning coming off LM. Hopefully that bodes well to support more snow than ice around here when the storm arrives. Meantime, overnight data continues to suggest the pattern/storm track shifts South as we progress through this week. I'm encouraged to see both the EPS/GEFS suggesting the southern Plains begin to see action as the expected systems on my calendar are still showing up. KC folks and surrounding locals, the 18th-20th is your storm that I think has the best chance for a widespread winter storm in your neck of the woods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
