But We built the snowpack in the Midwest, that's all that had to be accomplished 1st.. Said it in the fall and it rings true today. Never bet on the super/strong el nino hoarse. Better odds in La nina imo. Biggest Rain Cold quote of all time. Get the cold here first and foremost. Then worry about finding energy or a wave etc. Strong el nino's do the opposite and the Pac Flood of air hardly ever lets up
Your not wrong,
We don't ever get anything with wall to wall cold anyway. It's always dry when it's cold like it is today. The only chance we get at snow is when the temps are hovering right at freezing. That's why we always have to play the game of being on the line between rain and snow, and someone gets screwed while 10 miles away someone is getting snow.
I'll take, What is false? for $1000, Alex.
Then show me in the last 10 years how many times we have had snow here with wall to wall cold.
Ok, first, show me in the last 10 years when we've had wall to wall cold.
You were the one that disagreed with me. Not going to do the work for you. Nice try.
Well actually, you began with a faulty premise and then followed it up with an absurd proclamation that it only snows when temperatures are near freezing. You don't need to do my work for me. But would you please, for the love of Pete do at least SOME work? Just a little bit of work, not all the time, but some of the time. I beg you.
It's not faulty. When it's bitter cold here it's dry. When it snows most of the time we're right around freezing, maybe in the high 20s. The bitter cold comes with dry weather.
Indeed the EPS had the best look there, but man, none of them have improved today with the western ridging...and what little ridging is there, it gets washed out shortly thereafter with low pressure moving into the GOAK.
Yep, you said it best at the end. Every time we get a few days of rough trends.. it always follows a few days of better ones.
We literally had at least two diamond dust, cold events in 2022
It's so often in the transition zones. Like the other day. It was in the 60's here out ahead of it and I had 13.1 this morning. That's when timing can find moisture, and cold, close enough it can sometimes make them dance together
I used to think of warm ups in winter as opportunities...but that was back when warm and cold were transient. Now when it warms up, it can become spring whether it's Feb, or not. I don't much care for the new modern weather. I liked the weather I had back when it snowed, or a good sleet storm like so many just had...where cold patterns rolled thru like waves. It's been 18 years since I had anything I could street sled on. Now I'd need a hoist to get up and down off the sled, and that's if my studded tires can make the hill easily....no way I could walk it, lol. It'll be in the 60's again next week, so then it's a wait to see if it gets cold again. Never used to have to wonder if it would get cold in Feb. What a world, what a world.
