It has been consistent in showing some pretty chilly weather at least. I'm really concerned about a torch the final 3 or 4 days of the month that could ruin our cold monthly average though. Oh yeah, we are currently running about a -5ish departure down this way, but I know we are going to lose a lot of it. It's too bad, but gives us something to top next year. At least we will most likely have a below average month, and coldest January since 2017. 5 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

Phil Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 All three ensemble means (GEFS, GEPS, EPS) have a strong Scandinavian trough signal D10-15. In conjunction with the recovering PV/equatorward wave reflection muting MJO transit into W-Hem (high AAM state gets prolonged). Bad bad bad bad bad. Hell, could even be the worst possible setup for late winter during El Niño.

Phil Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Note the trend in the D10 GEFS. Effects of PV recovery (warming tropical tropopause dampening MJO amplitude relative to low pass/niño signal) and momentum deposition augment the PT (pacific trough) pattern, which scours out all arctic air from W-Canada. Guidance catches onto this as it gets closer in time. 1 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t the slightest clue what y’all are seeing in the pattern, but I suppose if you enjoyed the December pattern, you’ll enjoy the February pattern as well. Phil does this mean winter is over? That Jan blast despite not much snow was awesome. If only we had snow on the ground before it got cold… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just taking time to be grateful it wasn't a January 2019 type torch-fest. Definitely, especially in the May-October period.

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 1 minute ago, Cascadia_Wx said: Yeah but we should keep in mind than on the whole things have still been way warmer than normal, in every season. There have just been more big swings at points in the winter. True, but it is still swinging both ways and can you imagine how bad it would be if we didn't get these cold spells?!! The glaciers in the Olympics are barely hanging on at this point because of the warm springs and summers. Scary and sad. I remember growing up and even in summer you could see massive snow left on the Olympics. Not anymore. 2 2 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

If only we had snow on the ground before it got cold… I wouldn’t say that yet, but February is probably a lost cause now. Unless there a massive, systematic error in guidance over Eurasia during week-2. 1 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree this has definitely been better than some alternatives, with a warming climate. 2 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
