Interesting, I just got done watching JB's video from yesterday and he is mirroring what I was sorta have been thinking to finish off FEB. What we have to watch for is the Hudson Bay block that'll be a big culprit to steer storms a little more south after the 20th. All I want to see is some happy folks on here and bless some peeps with more White Gold!!! Lessss Go!!!
Also historically Lincoln averages the same or a little less than NYC I believe. I understand the frustration from the standpoint of getting a freak big storm or two, feels like we grind and earn our snow in this part of the country vs NE just getting gifted big ones.
For as dry as it has seemed the last few weeks... we are still running close to normal or wetter than normal for the rainy season in most places from Portland northward.
SEA -.49
OLM +1.23
HQM +1.56
BLI +5.12
PDX -.33
And the rest of February looks like a lock to be wetter than normal regardless of whether we get lowland snow.
Have you been watching Welcome to Wrexham? That helped me understand the insane passion for "football" in the UK.
The Super Bowl in 2018 was played in Minneapolis where the temperature was 2 degrees at kickoff... but the game was played in the 72-degree comfort indoors at US Bank stadium off course. I just don't see places like Chicago or Green Bay or Seattle ever getting a Super Bowl because they don't want the weather to decide the game. They took a big risk in 2014 with the Seahawks first Super Bowl win being played in New York but got really lucky with mild, dry weather that was not a factor in the game at all.
Whoever has been manifesting CO Low's and GL's cutters, I think the universe is picking up on that energy!! I will say this, from the middle of the month into March it will be the epitome of CO low's and Panhandle Hooks. My Blizzard call is on the table among other storms that will hit areas that have been missed this entire season.
Let 'sget this storm parade started once we get through this FEB Torch period....The pattern is clear to me that a very good swath of this Sub should see it snow more than they have seen it all year. I just have this feeling based off of some maps I'm looking at and have been analyzing over the past few days that the central Plains/MW will reel in opportunities for a good 2nd half of FEB. #BackLoadedWinter
The original idea is for a Blitz setting up around the 17th - 21st (Might have to dial it up 17th-19th)...and this system should tug down some arctic air w/ another follow up storm post 20th/21st.
