You looked an hour too soon. KINL got down to -42. KBDE got down to -34. Wind was noticeably absent all night, which of course helped the radiational cooling to reach those lows. Highs close to 0 now for a 40 degree temp rise in about 7 hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is compelling, just like the storm I'm in now; we followed the same wave for at least 2 weeks in modeling and this one is bearing that "I'm not going anywhere" mark on it, too. Pattern wise, same, so you're making a great call here. Honestly, I'm anticipating another storm here based on history of these patterns/cycles and I could be wrong, too.

Tom Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 I'd like to show you how much bias the EPS Weeklies have over the W NAMER region when looking at LR data (esp during the heart of winter). It's not just this model but the CFSv2 monthlies and other global models have done the same thing this cold season. For some reason, whether it is the La Nina ongoing in the central PAC, the models were predicting a strong trough in this region throughout the heart of winter. I do understand why in DEC this was a feature that stood out and was well advertised but I began to become suspicious as we head into JAN and esp now into FEB. Look at the sequence of EPS weeklies from 4 runs ago, 3 runs and now the latest run. Major reversal in the NE PAC/W NAMER region...until I see something different in the Upper Strat region at 10mb, I really think this pattern has legs into early MAR. If you are following the CFSv2 monthlies, yup, the same correction is taking place which is lining up with my LR call for a bold/cold open to MAR and yes, I'm predicting the Plains states to get in on the action. Whether you want to see more winter conditions this month or not, I see a FEB '15 flavor for the 1st 2 weeks of this month across the eastern SUB, then a more general widespread colder pattern across the board later in FEB. "Something Special"...the pattern in and around the GL's region is going to benefit from a NW Flow Clipper Train next week which leads us to an interesting period around the 10th/11th (reloading cold). The GEFS are, and have been, sniffing out a lead clipper to dive S/SE into the Upper MW/GL's region. I'd like to see a few more runs but there are some nice looking ensemble members thrown in the mix later next week. There is a system which is forecast to track up along the EC into NewFoundland, Canada mid next week that will pump a ridge in the N ATL. This feature will ultimately produce and blocking pattern that will unleash a shot of arctic air next weekend for the MW/GL's region. PV Intrusion?? Are there more on the table? Indeed, there is a likelihood of more rounds of cold for this region... 0z EPS trends for the aforementioned period mid next week across across the N ATL...blossoming ridge...unleashes the "Fridge"...not to mention, that nearly every single global model is now locked onto the NE PAC ridge that I alluded to would develop for the majority of this month based on LR tools using the Strat. This is showing signs to have legs.... LR GEFS....here's the current forecast during the opening days of MAR...let's see how this pattern develops over the next couple weeks. If you want to believe the Euro Weeklies, they are in the same camp as the LR GEFS, that late FEB into MAR the pattern should shift more wintry for the Plains states that are on the sidelines currently. Some may be making up in the snow dept out that way. I'm both hopeful and encouraged at the data that is suggesting a more active pattern out that way. Alrighty Mother Nature, you started off FEB with a large impacting Ground Hog Day winter storm, what do you have in store for the remainder of this month??

Officially at the airport there is 6.0″ reported on the ground. For February since 1894 the average snow depth at Grand Rapids is 4.9″ In that time there have been only 8 years with no snow on the ground the last time was in 2020. The most on the ground on February 4th is 20″ and that was in 1959. There was 18″ on the ground on this date in 2014 and 2011 and 1904.

Here in my part of KC, I have had 7.8 inches of snow since Jan. 1st in (3) separate storms. After a 10 day lull, the real active part of the LRC is coming, we must score with that. Let's hope for 2-3 more storms just like the one we had this week. That storm was massive!!! Beautiful winter scene here in KC. Snow piles, snow packed roads, and 2 degrees this morning. True winter conditions. Love it!! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 My 7th grade boys assistant basketball coach is a farmer. We had a road trip yesterday about 45 minutes away, so on the bus we were talking about the weather and the horribly dry fall and winter so far. He said that a family friend of his on Wednesday night had some cattle get out and a couple were hit on Highway 183 north of Holdrege. He went to check the electric fence, but it was working fine. After more checking, he said that the cows touched the electric fence, but since there is no moisture in the ground, they were not grounded. Some of the cows just walked right through the electric fence. This farmer said in all of his years he had never seen anything like this, and it is as dry as he can ever remember. This farmer is in his 70's. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayhawker85 Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 Gary’s blog had a great write up about the cycle and when the next big storm will arrive. •cycle length is 61-66 days for a average of 63.5 days •every other cycle mirrors each other so this will be the wetter cycle • this week storm is related to the pattern on 10/2 • the next major storm to watch is 2/17 which is 64 days from the 10/2 storm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? Then wouldn't that actually make it a 127 day cycle, especially since we're referencing a storm from 10/2 (which wasn't 64 days ago)?

Kinda hard to tell from all the drifting with the last storm we had but I'd say a good 4-5" just from eyeballing. The other day the local met said Waterloo was at 6" OTG. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
