Even if you miss this storm, more are coming

[Planetsnow]

I believe that more storms are on the way for the first couple of weeks of March, so if you miss this one, there is still hope.

[ohiostorm]

Yeah I just loaded the GFS and theres quite a few out there that are coming, especially here in the OV. I hope we get some snow before winters over.

Clipper season is definitely about to begin in earnest. I think a lot of these will have potential to produce a lot of snow in the Plains, Midwest and Ohio Valley...and I'm sure 1 or 2 will become big Nor'easters. They'll guarantee some unseasonably cold weather as well.

Bout time.

An all-rain event here in central NC from this latest system for Sun-Mon. We've yet to see a good 2-4 inches of just snow this winter.

It could be worse, Eric. You've had more than we have. We've seen 1" of ice, and 8 teeny-tiny snowflakes in Atlanta (which is unusual even by Atlanta standards).

We did have that half inch over to packed ice nightmare that put Raleigh in shut-down mode on Jan. 19th. Other than that it's been a pretty sublime winter.

You ready to call winter cancel for the SE? I think I am (and I have been the eternal optimist all winter).

This winter has been a complete disappointment (she says as it is 60F and typing in shorts and tank top). I can't even bring myself to come to S2K right now....all I see is rain going over us and making snow elsewhere.

If this storm misses me in Watertown, then I'm ready to call a winter cancel as well. EVERY major storm in the NE has missed us so far...our highest snowfall so far this season was around 6". Right now we are at around 64" (way below normal) and we have only had constant light snowfalls of about 1-3" several times a week.

Welcome to what us eastern Ohioans have been dealing with all winter!

[krysof]

all I can say is, if the storm is just a rain maker here in northcentral new jersey, its over with wintry weather, this is the last one for me, I won't even look at long range models because there's no point. Last one this winter for me, either we get snow or not.

[andrewr]

It's pretty funny to hear you people complaining about winter. Try living in the Pac Northwest. We barely even have any hope for anything, not even a single storm. There has been high pressure splitting every storm around us and although we may get a little rain this week, it is back to a huge ridge. The weather has been very boring and looks as though it will continue. Our mountains are at near record low snowfall as is the rain for our area (Spokane picking up just .01" of rain in the month of February). Right now most in our area would just like to see some rain, but even that is very hard to come by.

It certainly is nice to know that we, in the Northwest, are not alone in being screwed this winter!

Here's the latest raleigh NWS discussion-I think they're a little too optimistic on snow totals.


SUN NGT-MON...THE GFS/CANADIAN/UKMET/ECMWF ARE NOW CONVERGING MORE
TOWARD A MAIN COASTAL LOW MILLER-A CYCLOGENESIS SOLUTION. WE WILL
BE LEANING TOWARD THE DETAILS OF THE GFS MOISTURE AND THERMAL
STRUCTURE...NOTING THIS IS THE COLDEST RUN OF THE LAST THREE BUT IN
LINE WITH UKMET/ECMWF BULK THICKNESS (1000-500). THIS SUGGESTS MIXED
P-TYPES IN THE NW QUADRANT AND AT THE ONSET IN THE NORTHEAST PDMT. A
STATEMENT WILL BE ISSUED CALLING FOR A 1-2 INCH POTENTIAL OF
SNOW/SLEET MIX WITH RAIN IN THE NW PDMT...AN UP TO A HALF INCH
BEFORE CHANGEOVER TO RAIN IN THE NE PDMT. LOWS 33-35 IN THE NW
THIRD GRADUATING UP TO 42 IN SAMPSON-WAYNE. HEAVIEST PCPN SHOULD
EBB AROUND 10 AM AS THE 850 LOW MOVES NORTH OF CAPE LOOKOUT AND THE
EASTERLY LOW LEVEL JET TRANSLATES NORTH OF THE CWA. A LOOSE
PRESSURE TROUGH IN THE WAKE OF THE LOW SHOULD ALLOW LOW CLOUDS AND
DRIZZLE OR SPRINKLES TO LINGER INTO LATE AFTERNOON HOLDING
TEMPERATURES NEAR 40 NW TO NEAR 50 SE.

Hey, as long as the Chinooks keep rolling through Calgary like they have been lately, I'll be a happy camper.

12C here today.

Yeah, like that one I was telling you about for next weekend. Not a very big storm but they have it hitting east Ohio and West PA just right for some pretty decent snow anyway. Still a ways off of course.

[BlizzzardMan]

Welcome to what us eastern Ohioans have been dealing with all winter!

And western PA too! We have A LOT of catching up to do. Boston has 67 freaking inches this winter! Only around 40 or so behind I think! LoL
