February 2022
I like the 500mb trough orientation the models are showing next week.Could allow the arctic air to come straight down the plains.With energy digging to the west of us.
This is a pretty good setup for next week. Not quite where it needs to be yet but there’s still a lot of time to work on that:

Thats a good setup for a winter storm ( almost) next week is going to be interesting
It needs to dig a little further south into Mexico and I’d like for there to be more ridging over Alaska.Stratton20 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 4:19 pm Thats a good setup for a winter storm ( almost) next week is going to be interesting

Hard to see but I cant zoom in any closer but FWIW the 18z GEFS does have some members on board with a wintry storm next week, key word “just a few right now though) this is days 8-9

You can put the region to (South-Central USA) so you can get a better visual of Oklahoma & Texas!Stratton20 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 5:45 pm Hard to see but I cant zoom in any closer but FWIW the 18z GEFS does have some members on board with a wintry storm next week, key word “just a few right now though) this is days 8-9

Growing confidence for a pretty strong front to move through here towards the end of next week. Still don’t really like what I see from the models yet. Probably need a better snowpack up north. Too much modification.

Yeah especially when there’s not much of a snowpack over the central plain states.

I mean technically cant you still get wintry precipitation or a storm even with modified arctic air?
Yes but it makes it a lot harder.Stratton20 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 8:04 pm I mean technically cant you still get wintry precipitation or a storm even with modified arctic air?
