hlcater Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 There's significant system in the long range (~252) with a fairly decent amount of deterministic and ensemble support. Powerhouse longwave trough traverses the country during the period and assuming a neg tilt/quality ejection from the 4 corners, could lead to a significant system for someone in the midwest. In the warm sector, assuming moisture, the general look aloft is analogous to significant severe weather outbreaks in the lower OV and Dixie. One of the better analogs upstairs is 2/5/2008. 4 1 Quote 2021-22 Snowfall: (Hiawatha) TOTAL: 10.2" (12/28: 3.0") (12/29: 0.8") (1/1: 6.4") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKwx2k4 Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 *Checks models* I get it, it's March in Oklahoma. Lol. We skipped February entirely. I'm paying for that cool summer I got last year. Meanwhile California is going to spend 2.5 weeks below average. Because in 2021 that makes perfect sense!

Grizzcoat Posted January 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Just saying- but if the Euro for the weekend holds --- DSM is going to right around 2 place. 17" through the 25th. A few inches today and 4 or 5 weekend does. The 37 in 1886 is impressive for even Duluth. Someone on here said snowfall is decreasing in the Upper Midwest. I assure you that even with some dud years these Top 10 years really inflate the avg's DSM will have back to back TOP 10 snowiest months (Jan - FEB 19' ) * and Dec 20 Jan 21. within two years of each other. * snowiest JAN / FEB on record. ALSO- ALL three records for Snowiest Day / Highest 3 day total / and most snow on the Ground from JAN 1942--- -get this-- IT NEVER SNOWED AGAIN FOR THE REST OF THE MONTH OF JAN 1942. NOW- THAT'S ONE UNREAL STAT. 5 1 Quote The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.

Tom Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 For those who have ever wondered what the landscape looks like back in AZ where I reside for several months out of the year, this local reporter is about 5 miles to the East of where I live and the back drop are the mountains I look at every day. I drive on that hwy 87 up into the mountains quite often into Payson area to go hiking, etc. I'm thrilled that the PHX area along with the mountains have seen a lot of precip from the series of storms that tracked through the area. I'm hearing 1-2 Feet of snow will fall up near the Payson area. This is such a blessing from mother nature. SW Flow will continue for the rest of this month aiding in more storm systems to track in this region. https://www.fox10phoenix.com/video/893667 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, ya, snow birds typically fly into the warmer climates during the winter but I don’t. So, you can say that I follow the weather I’d prefer to enjoy. I love winter but I dislike the shoulder season of Spring, hence why I go there around March and stay for a while till it warms up back in the MW.

I know its a small storm and nothing compared to you big boys up north, but we'll take it. And...its actually going to snow with temps well below freezing. Almost every snow event here in the last 2 years has been with temps around 30-31, limiting snow accumulation. HAHAHA.....awesome to see all the big snow totals to the north of KC.
