WildWisconsinWeather Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Ahh come on man you know that's not true. Not like the GOM just cuts off at the Missouri River. During the winter it seems to have greater affects, precip is more boom or bust in the Plains for sure. There's a reason droughts are more prevalent there, esp in recent years. Omaha averages less than 30" of snow (I know we've been over this, though). It seems like they have a terrific year once every three or four, then a poor couple years. 2009-10, 2012-13 are a couple examples, guess that means next year will follow suit in the pattern one can hope!

If we get another year like 2012... man. I would lose my s***. That was the WORST of the worst. During the winter it seems to have greater affects, precip is more boom or bust in the Plains for sure.

Yeah that's true. We did have some awesome years, esp 2009. I can't believe we're talking next year already. By that time I might be in Chicago since I'll finally be graduated so hopefully no more droughts for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, I think the key here is the -AO which is driving the northern jet/energy farther south and phasing it with the southern stream earlier each run. It was a good call to never give up on this one.
