I had to go back and read a good bit of the Dec. 5/6 2013 storm. Felt like I was living it again and hope to experience one like that again some day soon! It was also a trip seeing myself refer to my now 7 month pregnant wife as "girlfriend."

Amazing. The style of the posts have changed but we still debated the same kind of things we do today. Some posters went into alot of detail to support their thinking. Some still do this day, but you can tell that today, it has become a spare time dependent hobby for some. This was an interesting read, indeed.

Evidently roads are slick in Arlington, TX. Slick conditions reported on 360 and I20 exit ramp. Heres their fb post (i just copied/pasted the text)
APD and ArlingtonTx Fire are working a manure spill at southbound 360 and westbound I-20 exit ramp. It is causing slick conditions and we hope to have it cleared up and ramp reopened by 4 pm. Take the Mayfield exit to get to I-20 and avoid it. #oops #ArlingtonTX
😂

Amazing. I go back and reread threads and cringe at what I would post when I was back in my teens. We all do  |

Definately looking like some slushy snow showers with dusting to 1 inch the nam just trended to be more favorible albeit marginal. Also i know overall we are in a warmish pattern for the forseable future however i am ok with it as we saw with the snow 3 weeks ago we almosy seem to get more.substantial snows in warmer meaning marginal set ups than we do with piercing cold and suppressed. So overall I am om with our pattern right now. It would not take much for a severe storm.outbreak or a snowstorm in this pattern

It is intriguing that Dave keeps saying a pattern change next week to bring a couple weeks of colder air. I’m not saying he is wrong because I have no idea. But he seems to be one if the few with this idea. Curious as to what he is seeing that is making him think this. I keep reading other posts from Mets talking about how we are in such a warm phase of the MJO we will be hard pressed to see much true cold for the month of January. Again I know nothing just mentioning observations.

My take on the aquarium....WAIT... dont go until the holiday crowds thin out. I will enjoy it more when I dont feel like I am being rushed through. And DO NOT expect the Charleston or Shed...it is not even in the same league as those. That said, it has potential to be a nice attraction. However...they will HAVE to cut the price or people will stop coming. I just dont think it was worth 25 bucks a person. That alone will keep many people from coming a second time. I wonder how it compares with the one at Bass Pro Shop in Springfield? I've been through that one, and it's nice, but pricey too. Aquariums must be the hot ticket item lately because they are putting one in down in Branson too. Ironic you say that because I was just there today and BP in SF is still an awesome place I love to check out. Now to enjoy Branson! |

I have been reading JB's posts about the IOD and the MJO and the likely teleconnections for us here and it mostly sounds like a warn couple of weeks anyway.....but I had noticed he had another message and I about fell out of the chair laughing when I seen it. A GIF of Lucy (12z Euro) pulling the football (his snow forecast) from under Charlie Brown. Classic. See, it's not just us this happens to.

Wow, the GFS is close to a monster on Jan. 14-15. Now, if it doesn't disappear on the 12z run, is there any global teleconnections or regional teleconnections that we can look toward for this to actually happen? It looks like two separate pieces of energy and I'm not even sure if that is physically possible in that short amount of time. But, it certainly is close the way the GFS looks.
3K NAM seems further west with Friday nights system. I still think I will be too far south and west for anything of consequence. Onward with the chicken coop...

I wouldn't bother worrying about possible snow here for the next 10 days at the very least.

I agree with snow , the models are worthless past a few days. Our big two day rain for yesterday and that disappeared. 7-14 days ago several models had much colder and snowier weather here right now into next week,only to warm up as we get closer. The GFS and Euro keep showing awesome fantasy snow storms 7-14 days out and once we get within a week they disappear. If we received half the model snow in the 7-14 we would probably have 100” on the ground. Several people keep pointing out the obvious. The EPO and other drivers are all positive. The MJO (has been)and is solidly in a warm phase for at least another 10-14 days. Our only hope is for a big pattern change or for us to catch one of these cold front storms just right and get a little back end snow. Otherwise hopefully things change late month into February.

I'm just giving 99 a hard time...I don't expect much this evening, really...maybe a heavy dusting. Things definitely don't look the best for the next week or two, but I wouldn't give upon that system early next week quite yet. Models miss the phase but that's a decent shortwave swinging through otherwise...might be able to get something going. Definitely nothing significant though...models really backed off on the winter pattern that was being depicted for sure. |

I think it’s only a matter of time before winter comes roaring back into the Midwest. Models show some big time cold building over western Canada into the US through the month. Just need the ridge near Alaska to move further east

Some nice lapse rates thru the DGZ tomorrow morning for a brief time... certainly some decent snow showers  |

Just need the ridge near Alaska to move further east Yea, GFS continues to build it and begin to release it into the lower 48 by late next week. Looks like a ton of energy building in the SW too. Long way off but kind of has that ice storm (somewhere) look to it with the tight temp gradient and the shallow cold oozing south. |

Models past 5 days are having trouble with the changing pattern emerging IMO. |
