Winter Weather 22/23

[MC2]

all it’s showing you is the estimated likelihood of temps being above or below normal for a given time period

Also, if something is 60% likely, then 40% of the time it will go the other way. Lots of uncertainty to make judgments as to whether it’s gonna rain or snow in the coming 8-14 days.

Just quick look at those maps tells me there is a trough over the west
Ridge over south east. And some cooler air in eastern Canada.
Not really a recipe for big snow in the north east.

In Alaska in January Brown may well be good just not in the northeast. Usually.

Looks like a similar pattern to late Jan, strong gradient pattern just hope we are north of the line

Hopefully this time it lasts longer than 2 weeks.

Hopefully this time it lasts longer than 2 weeks.

I think we all hope for that. Seems like a long shot especially at this time of year.

I think this next storm will bring liquid to a lot of northern areas that will get mostly snow. Very tight gradient.

I got my eyes on Titus.

The dacks look good for this next event. Cats ehhh
After 10 days it’s pretty dreadful.

Should remind people that it’s not really an absolute temperature map (red=above freezing, blue=below), it’s just a map of temps relative to normal. We’d have to know the normal temps to discern whether a specific area would get snow/rain in the coming days (and I don’t know if I trust 8-14 day temp forecasts anyway).

Doesn't it say all of that on the map
