It didn’t make any difference the last two weeks for any of us here east off the apps. So eh.

Yeah I think the bigger thing for us going forward is the snow pack over the interior northeast and southeast Canada and that’s not going to be taking nearly the hit that the Midwest takes. In fact some of those areas will continue adding over the next 10 days. This is important because it does look like we’re going into a pattern after later this week that a lot of CAD can set up.

Yep just hopefully the CAD will be deep enough if something does arise. Fingers crossed.

The good news is that all modeling keeps some very cold air in eastern Canada… east of the Hudson Bay…. That’s airmass that CAD would tap into. Also as Webb pointed out, you can see just how much the SER is being pushed down after next weekend as well

So to clear things up cause I’m kind of confused, are the next 2-3 weeks what you are referring too as possible CAD chances? And in your opinion what lies beyond after those few weeks? Another west dump that doesn’t do anything for us or possibly something more in favor of east of apps folks?

I speaking after next weekend, as Webb was mentioning earlier. Later this week is going to torch… no question about it. After that we go into a period that has a strong CAD signal on the ensembles.
 
So it will snow on February 10?

There’s a reason we are getting interesting runs. That H5 pattern coming up is wedge happy. Looks warm now on ens but the mean ridge over Canada and the Great Lakes normally results in wedges View attachment 143072View attachment 143074View attachment 143076

This to me seems like the best pattern I've seen coming up, because of the Miller B wedges that it could produce. Having a real Atlantic 50/50 in the area could produce.

Definitely cautious with the longer range ensembles because I think they have just been to fast with everything pattern wise, but they basically do what I expect overall. The big ridge in Canada eventually becomes a -NAO as wavebreaking occurs, the pac trough backs up to the Aleutian Islands. View attachment 143086View attachment 143087

Weeklies in my opinion have been standard nino climo and haven't been helpful. I also note they don't really have a pna.

Feels like we are healing this morning. Lol

I just hope in Mid February we aren't dropping the Arctic circle into Texas again.

This is my fear as well. We repeat Canadian ridging that looks good but has the trough/pv tucked in the Midwest again, and the party stays too our west. Need the trough off the Canadian coast.

Just need to sit back and wait I guess. Man though, getting tired of pattern tracking.
 
out of curiosity what was the highest storm total from last week. anybody in the MS/TN line area crack 8 inches?
 
We suck so bad that not only can we look up and not see snow, we can't even look up and see the aurora borealis through the clouds.

Does anyone have a map of the pattern during the Feb 2014 Winter storm? And what site do you find them on? honestly not familiar with looking them up much. I just see people posting them a lot. Just want to get an idea of what was driving such a strong CAD with placement & strength of HP.

What are the dates and what parameters are you looking for?

My only reason for posting this is to give you some assurance,
We all need that push from time to time.
This is your calling.
There's others here too,
That I feel have a true calling to be in a meteorology career.
In some fashion.
There's at least 10-15 ppl when reading these models that I pay close attention too.
Your one of the top.
Along with fill in the name.
We all know who they are...

There is a lot of good information on this page. And one can learn an awful lot on here. This is also an emotional hobby. I mean I'll cancel winter in a heartbeat in mid Jan, even though I know that's foolish. I don't think I've done that yet but I was on the verge the other day when it was looking bleak through Feb 5th or so ???. I had to do some February research to see if there was any truth to winter being over in SC and GA most years after Feb 15th. It's not. Over the last 50 years there have been 25 February's that produced measurable snowfall. There were 30 events total. So 5 of those winters had 2 events. 12 of the 30 events occurred after Feb 15th. So just a slight drop-off. And some big ones were late Feb. So for now we push on. Now if we make Feb 20th and the models show little hope for the rest of the month I'll probably cliff dive. Only 6 snowfalls of 1 inch or more in March over the last 30 years doesn't give me much hope for March saving us except on rare occasions

What you don’t mention is how it’s been almost 15 years since the I-20 corridor has had anything significant after Feb 15. In the old days it was a lot easier to get snow in late winter. If this was 20 years ago I’d probably feel a little more confident in the prospects of snow late in the winter but times have changed and the climate is warmer.

Great post...
Ty for your work.
25 snows in 50 years is much higher than I would've guessed.
Half of Feb's over the last 50 years have produced.
That's shocking to me.
Feb makes me think of things blossoming more than snow for someone reason.
Maybe it's Bc if we kept track of blossoming in Feb it would be 50/50.
Idk?
Btw there's not a lot that separates GSP, Charlotte, & Raleigh.
Generally if it's good for one it's good for the others.
Except some EC storms that will hit Charlotte occasionally & Raleigh often than misses GSP West.
Also occasionally GSP will do better than Charlotte occasionally and Raleigh even to a higher degree with CAD storms.
Generally speaking they almost miss or hit snow together.

If you want to look at surface maps. There probably is a v with post 2018 stuff but nothing has good happened post 2018 so I haven't looked for it.
