Hawkeye Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Models seem to be in decent agreement there will be a initial wave next week that dumps decent snow from the Dakotas to the northern lakes. After that, models are rather chaotic. 2 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 a year ago tonight, the temp fell to -23.8 on my thermometer, but on the Ambient weather station network I follow that has other weather stations online, one of the stations fell to -31.0 a couple miles west of me. The 16th was the last of the brutal 10 day stretch of cold here when the temps finally began to warm up. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 @Andie....a little late, but it won't be denied...Arctic Blast heading down deep into TX the way the pattern is setting up for Week 2...I see a multi-day storm brewing for TX/OK late month. Not sure how far it penetrates towards DFW but a couple cold days on the table along with ICE will not be so NICE.

No snow cover in Nebraska or much of South Dakota may lessen the severity.

There's nothing that can salvage this winter as a whole, but it would be better late than never. I have a hard time believing LNK will end the year with such a crazy low amount of snow, so hopefully I'm not proven wrong lol. 1 Quote Snowfall in Lincoln, NE: 2017-18: 21.4" 2018-19: 55.5" 2019-20: 17.6" 2020-21: 49.4" 2021-22: 5.1" Average: 26" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the blocking is setting up and the reversal of the -PNA should do our Sub some good. I wouldn’t mind seeing some more snow through the 1st week or so of MAR. After that, I’m in warm wx mode…I really don’t see a nice Spring up near the GL’s this year. There will be some warmer periods but I’m concerned for that pesky Block to develop in NE Canada that is a devil in the Spring months. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, I think this Spring/Summer will surprise some on here with good moisture. I also see a good signal for a lot of Derecho’s/MCS’s. Upper MW may bake again this year. Should be a good growing season for our ag belt region. Before we get ahead of ourselves, March is going to be wild in terms of storms, severe wx, etc. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzcoat Posted February 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 and the all time low of -23F is not where you would think it would be,, like Dalhart or some place like that in the way North. (Dalhart btw gets brutal in the winter for TX's standards, near -10F every winter -- most can't say that this forum). It's here at latitude 32N- crazy low latitude for -23F outside serious elevation which it is not- 4 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.

Hawkeye Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 If the later part of February was expected to be warm, the latest models haven't gotten the word. Unfortunately, not only is it looking cold, but it's also looking like there may be little snow for my area. Models are generally suggesting the first snow event will miss north, then everything else will miss south into early March. Ugh. 1 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 We are not going to make it to 50º like a few models suggested.

Based on the models recent performance, we can totally expect this storm to shift south, right? The last 2 storms showed eastern Iowa getting hit hard only to both miss south. So since it now shows Minnesota getting hit hard, I completely expect that in a few days, that snow band will be right over top of us down here...
