Snowshoe Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 What a gorgeous day yesterday. Usually when we have records highs in the winter it's because of a strong storm pumping heavy rains and southerly winds ahead of the cold front.

westMJim Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 The coldest it has gotten so far this winter is +7. If this holds for the next 2 months this will tie the winter of 1930/31 for 2nd place for warmest lowest temperature for a winter. In first place is the winter of 1920/21 with a low for the season of +8. Some other years with a mild coldest low are 1938/39 +6. 1938/37 +6. 2011/12 +4. Now while one can not say for sure but in the above years the following summers were all warmer then average with 1921 and 2012 both having a very hot July.

Tom Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 Big differences in the MJO forecasts from the GFS & EURO which have big implications to how strong the SER will end up being. The Euro takes it barely into the warm phases (5/6) with minimal amplification. On the other hand, the GFS amps it up into the same phases and prob the reason why it's -PNA forecast is reaching -3 standard deviation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 The GFS has been showing a storm or storms next week for several days. I know, their track record is not great. Now the Euro is flashing the same type of big storm next Wednesday, Feb. 12 and Thursday Feb. 13th in the Central US. Being 9 days away is not great to trust, at least it isn't the fantasy 384 hours. With now the Euro showing something, maybe there is hope for many of us who have been missed lately. Not predicting anything or taking the models exactly, just going to be watching the trends in the coming days and see what materializes. Really that is all we can do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not predicting anything or taking the models exactly, just going to be watching the trends in the coming days and see what materializes. Really that is all we can do. The storm (12th-14th) is showing up in a big way per the latest EPS/GEFS ensembles and I will say, the signal at this range is rather strong. Could be one of the biggest/bigger storms we have tracked all season long. Not necessarily a Blizzard, but a far reaching storm system is on the table. Following this storm, I think an arctic attack is in the works that will first knife down the Upper MW/Plains and eventually bleed east. We are not done yet with sub zero cold, esp those who will have snow OTG. Might be harder for us farther east but your region and up towards western GL's sure looks like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday and Sunday should be a bit warmer with highs in the 40s.Another system will be moving into the western CONUS, though.This system will be one to watch as it cuts off and finally ejectsacross the region for the middle of next week. Aside fromtomorrow`s light snow, this looks to be our next shot formeaningful precipitation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 NWS North Platte NE afternoon disco. Always interesting to see what the mets are saying about developing weather patterns. Next big pattern shift looks to come nextweekend as upper low pressure develops across the western statesand creates a large trough that will likely lead to betterwidespread precip chances next week - but that is beyond thisforecast period. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted February 4, 2020 Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 With the way the temperatures and the way it looks outside it feels and looks more like March then February. That COULD mean that there could be some bigger systems in the next 30 to 45 days. That is especially true if it becomes cold to out north west and warm to our SE. We will have to see where the storm track sets up. At this time it is mostly cloudy and 37 here with just some left over snow piles on the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, I wouldn't jump on the 12z run. The GFS has, for days, been showing a big surge of moisture up over the cold air across the upper midwest.

westMJim Posted February 4, 2020 Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 As of this morning there was just 5.3% of total ice cover on the great Lakes. That is a record low amount for February 4th going back to 1973. This beats the 5.64% on this date in 2016 the 6.1% on this date in 2012 as well as the 6.5% in 2002. Here is the ice cover map. https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/glcfs.php?lake=l&ext=ice&type=N&hr=00 For more information on Great Lakes Ice coverage here is a web site https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/data/ice/#historical 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
