Pattern Fab-February 2020 The dark age

My worse winter gave my 1" of snow. So I've never been blanked while living in this area. So far I haven't seen a sleet pellet.

I hate to start mentioning March, but that may be our best chance to see anything. This pattern should break down with the arrival of the spring pattern (shorter wave lengths). Our odds will still be (normally) low, but at least we'll have a chance.
Speaking for my area (foothills) have had our best snowstorms during season changes in early to mid December and early to mid March...

I vote for long growing season.
Just scroll through the 12z gfs. Almost no temps below 32 for anyone outside mountains.

this is the coldest morning for those outside mountains. View attachment 32635
It's still too soon up this way, we can get decent freezes through 3/15 no problem and really through 4/1
 


Like BAMwx or not (I'm not a fan due to wishywashyness on some days as others have pointed out as well as immature behavior toward webb and others out of frustration), Ryan Maue, in posting this old tweet, shows how long ago his company started putting a lot of doubt in their cold winter forecast unlike the stubborn JB who took several weeks to do so. So, in all fairness, they haven't been consistently horrible during the last month unlike JB was til very recently. They've mostly been warm since.
