Tom Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 Without further ado, it's prob a good idea to start a storm thread this far out to keep this forum focused on the weather! Whaddya say? Let's discuss... At the Day 7-8 range, the models are in remarkable agreement that a strong trough digs deep into the 4 corners region and ejects out into the TX Panhandle region. Where it tracks from there will depend on how strong the blocking is up north. Hard cutter or not? Some peeps on here will see some snow while others are going to get soaked or deal with a mix scenario. It does appear that a very wet, mostly warm, system is on tap with copious GOM moisture. Teleconnections support a track farther NW than the previous storm system we tracked during GHD. 0z GEFS... 0z Euro... 0z GGEM... 0z GFS... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzcoat Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 CMC is out to lunch. This thing will end up being well N and W of what most guidance shows now. Snow cover gone or will gone. Serious Gulf moisture and WAA and I'am not impressed with H pressure to the N in CAN. Think it's overdone. 3 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 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 The op Euro is going back south again, too.

Tom, I would like to see the source of cold air become a bit stronger. The FEB. 2nd-4th monster in the nation's midsection had widespread cold air. Temps look marginal for widespread snow with this storm. We'll see how that trends. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzcoat Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 At 174 hours- its not going to be 16F at MCI at noon in mid/late JAN " edit FEB" without snow on the ground and hardly any within 200 miles+ to the N. Even through 12Z guidance showed a shift to the S and E, this thing is running N and Way N imo. We are talking 174 hours. A joke that we (including myslef) are even talking about this yet -- just goes to show how slow the winter has been for snow. 2 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.

MIKEKC Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 32 minutes ago, someweatherdude said: But the strength of the cold air last time pushed the snow mostly south and east of KC. I was actually going to say that the weakness of this cold push (relative to the last one) might actually benefit KC this time. Having said, I agree that it will make rain/ice/sleet more of a risk. As I've said many times, things have to line up just right for KC to get snow. We're always on the line. Yes it did. I don't what it that strong! I just don't want it to be as marginal as the data is showing right now. It looked a bit better on the 12z data. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This be the range when the maps models tease south trend, just to sucker us in SMI (even Tom in Chicago) into thinking we have a shot at some kind of repeat of GHD-3. With my whopping 5.6" hit, I'm pleasantly spared the hoping for a repeat of said Big Dog storm. I am with Grizz, in the end this will be an Iowa or NW of there hitter. Prolly lost half our snow cover with this warm-up, now we get a dusting in the morning, just to be melted slop by the pm. Then we deep freeze. A little too much roller-coaster imo.

gimmesnow Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 GFS has rain for this storm for me, then the big snow goes to the south. I really do just give up at this point. This winter really is hopeless, what a huge disappointment. Never even took my snowmobile off my trailer, the way this looks I'm not even going to take it off, except so I can put some drywall and lumber on it to do some house work.

Hawkeye Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Tonight's Euro looks like the GFS, laying down a swath of heavy snow through eastern Iowa. The Canadian is suppressed.

Tom Posted February 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Just based on trends, this storm isn't cutting NW even though there is no snow on OTG. Similar storm track as the GHD storm should produce similar results.

This is exactly the type of storm set up we had in the Fall but never managed to really align during the heart of winter. Teleconnections failed us many times this winter when systems ejected out of the SW. I'm sure now as we near Spring, nature will show up with early Spring winter storms... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
