NAM 3km loop. 

Gets this weekend's SLP into the mid-990s just east of here. Would've been interesting with cold enough air in place, but climo says this in a NMI special.

A strong and wet storm is set to eject out of the 4 corners region later this week bringing substantial rains in the mid-west and possibly a narrow and well placed strip of snow for a few of our membe

This storm has been an efficient rain producer I'm already up to .71 inches, I should easily finish with over an inch of rain tonight.

Not sure this is in the thread window or not?? but most models bring a decent clipper SE towards The Mitt next Tues. NAM reflecting only snow, while other models have a mixy mess, or a SN->RN transition scenario.

At least per the NAM that clipper comes in riding its own reinforcement of cold air so that may well be my next shot at snow.

I have .11 precip from this weak event. And not one flake or anything  frozen.  Another jip job! Drizzle and 33 degrees.  Wow so exciting 😩

It could be worse my friend… over here on the western end of the current Midwestern desert we haven’t seen a sprinkle or flurry from this train of weak disturbances (missed to the south by 50-60 miles each time)… and if we don’t get any moisture today (which looks really doubtful), we probably won’t see anything for the next 7 days at least.

The lack of getting consistent moisture here is now pushing 2 years… might be time to replace my front yard with River rock or astroturf this spring LOL.

How much precip have you  had in 2022 and  2023? How much of a deficit  from the averages?

In my backyard for 2022-2023 combined we have a 23 inch precipitation deficit (based off of the Millard Airport reporting station, which is 1 mile from my house) however in some areas its 24+ inches.

Omaha Eppley Airfield is at an 18 inch precipitation deficit currently, so they have fared a little better. Droughts suck!

That is sure dry @Bryan1117!!

Check  this out The Ottumwa  airport  OTM as of Nov 30th had a 2022/2023 deficit  from avg of 30.30" 

2023 on track to be driest  year  EVER!! 2022/2023  WILL BE THE DRIEST 2  yr period  by 4 to 6 inches!!!!! 100 yrs of records!  Also OTM wettest month over this 23 month period  was sept 2022 with about 4 inches which blows away  any "wettest month" of any yr ever here  for the least amount  of rain!!!  Also imo nebraska  tends  to have wild swings in precip. But Ottumwa  Iowa is 90 miles from the Mississippi  river is clearly  THE DRIEST LOCATION  EAST OF THE MO RIVER TO ATLANTIC  OCEAN! ITS PHSYCO!

Wow that’s just brutal man… hopefully we will see this awful pattern shift sometime in the next few months.

If things don’t change by next Spring, we are going to both be in even bigger trouble with this dreaded drought.

It has been snowing steadily for a couple hours.  I'm guessing we might have a half inch.

I got about an inch of snow last night and this morning.  The measurement this morning is a bit less than that, but I made the mistake of not measuring last night and it very slowly melted overnight, so I just added a couple tenths.  There are some scattered heavier bursts moving across the area this morning, one of which dumped here for a few minutes.

Woke up with a trace as well.  The 4 year old twin boys were not excited about it enough to go outside and play.   Waiting for that first big snowfall.

      I doubt you listened a word he said. I listened and re-listened to his podcasts back in ‘21 & ‘22 that dealt with this. He openly corrected where he was wrong. Funny how those that bleat about “the science” slander actual scientists when there’s scientists that disagree, when scientists point out the authoritarian moves to force people to fall in line. He is not “Trumpy.” He’s a moderate leftist. But for you and others like you, those that don’t fall completely in line with leftist dogma is “Trumpy.” He’s to the left of me on many things. (You’re a perfect example of why much of the moderate left is now in the middle, courted by Republicans). But I respect his and Heather’s insight. He hasn’t changed politically over the years. Do you know how him and Heather were propelled into the spotlight? It’s a wild story how the social justice Neanderthals were physically after him at Evergreen State. Lastly, I noticed you directly ad hominem attacked him without addressing his observations.

      We are getting closer to our final month of Met Summer and the good ol' "Ring of Fire" pattern appears it will fire up quite nicely for our Midwest/Lakes members. Boy, hasn't this been the theme for a long stretch this entire summer so far. I would not be shocked to see Chitown in the bullseye again during the 1st week of August....just before a major trough hits the GL's for the annual Chicago Air & Water Show! Should be a nice weekend for that huge and exciting event.
