Misc Winter Whamby 2020, a New Decade

A winter without an official NWS teen low at CHA airport is incredibly rare. We only hit 22 this past cold spell, tying the temp from Nov 12, 2019. Hard to see February/first half of March going without one, but I guess it's possible. Maybe once in 50 years kind of territory. I'm not even glassin' over snow at this point, I just want to see a normal winter cold front. 30s, teens at night, cold clear skies, maybe some snow showers hit or miss.

We were 30-40% of mean snowfall that decade. This past decade was better.

Yeah, I don’t know why people complain so much about recent winters. The last decade has been above average in the snowfall department for basically the entire Southeast (some more so than others).

not really, it's actually just slightly AN for many.
 
Since temps will be warming up and still no track of any winter weather to really talk about I guess I'll put this here for history purposes???
ON THIS DATE IN 1967: A tornado outbreak across the Central U.S. was the furthest north ever recorded in the winter up to that time. Severe weather occurred across a good portion of southeast and east-central Iowa. Two-inch hail fell at Armstrong, and over two dozen tornadoes were reported. Five miles north of Fort Madison, one fatality occurred from a tornado along with six injuries. A tornado causing EF4 damage killed 3 people and injured 216 in St. Louis County, Missouri. Storms also affected parts of northern and central Illinois. One strong tornado in Mason County killed one person and injured three others. Another tornado moved across the Champaign-Urbana metropolitan area, injuring five people. Other strong tornadoes were reported across Carroll County in Mt. Carroll, where 12 people were injured, and near Gladstone in Henderson County. Funnel clouds were reported across the southwest section of Chicago, IL. High winds gusting to 48 mph caused a wall of a building under construction to collapse killing one and injuring four others. Iowa had never recorded a tornado in January before this outbreak. 32 total tornadoes occurred, 14 of them in Iowa. Nine twisters occurred in Missouri, 8 in Illinois and 1 in Wisconsin.
 
I don't remember seeing the Euro ever being that much colder than the GFS in the 5-10 day range.

You know, for a guy who prides himself on forecasting for the energy sector and sports teams, I would never hire him based on his "i told you so" type of Tweets. It looks like a 12 year old playing duck duck goose.

The guy literally has some power to move markets with his rhetoric and it chaps my ass.

See that #natgas in there? People are buying and trading based on this trollish sounding text and picture. He is outputting a model image and no forecast, unless you pay the $2,000 for his private ones.

I hope with everything within me, that the polar vortex comes to visit to tear his account apart.
