And there's the EURO with the textbook snowstorm setup at D7-8...gotta love it. It's an outlier with the handling of the N stream and cold air though...but fun to look at. Seasonal trend and most other models argue for a further N track. I’ll be out of town til Monday night. So it will happen and I’ll miss out on our only snow |

I’m looking at the 12z euro at hour 168 and don’t see how it won’t end up as a big winter storm for the area. Let’s wait a couple minutes and see how we get missed 😂 **Update** Now out to hour 198 the euro is a concrete crush job with 6-10+ inches for most of the viewing area. Upper air temperatures are fantastic. The way it tries to ruin it for us is with borderline surface temperatures. Basically, the preceding storm doesn’t pull a ton of cold air down and while there is decent high pressure blocking to our north, it is sliding to the northeast limiting evaporative cooling opportunities. Overall, a great run but a perfect illustration of just how much has to go right for us to cash in anymore. Like what it is showing us WSC, but of course it has to be perfect..who knows after everything this season maybe..just maybe this is the one...if it fails or shortly there after I'd say it's time for baseball and golf weather I will have had enough frustration by then might as well hit some golf balls for enjoyment 😉 😀 lol it's only weather but it is fun! |

The euro reminds me of last year's memphis low that only produced a couple inches of slush in saint louis. It was a bit more generous over the Eastern ozarks at somewhat higher elevation, but most of us didn't get nearly. What a storm of that type should produce because of the marginal temperatures.

Does Euro still show the storm?

Models don’t have a clue about Super Bowl storm this cycle.
12z gfs is sheared and suppressed.
12z Icon has an ideal surface track, but is north with the upper levels.
12z ggem is furthest north, but tries to do an energy handoff.
Safe to say they won’t be reliable outside of maybe 3-4 days with this pattern.

Well it figures we'll get a storm next week since I'm flying out to JAX NC to help my son move back to the Lou and my DIL and I are following a few days later driving from Charleston!

Model battles continue.
12z Ukmet is sheared and suppressed.
12z euro has brought our storm back with a vengeance.
Too much vengeance in fact 😂
Basically, a carbon copy of our past 2 failures.

12z euro also brings down some serious cold to the Canadian border by late next week.

Definitely some split camps on this one.. Maybe just maybe the Euro will have it a bit less ampped so we can get it to track a bit further south and have Snow vs. Rain I know the lower levels are borderline but the rest is looking like 👍🏻 👌 😉 |

We have about a 2 to 3 week shot from next week to early march. But I personally am leaning more towards rain to cool.

Should make another run at 70° later this week
Some of the soundings look marginally supportive of severe weather as well
Just bring on spring at this point

Second half of Feb into early March looks chilly. AO looks to get strongly negative. We may be on the western edge of the cold but I don't see any an early spring.

Fully agree on the cold core being east based this time. Matches better with the QBO anyway. Probably will cash in on a hybrid clipper |

70 to 75 seems like a good bet Friday with tons of sun and favorable wind direction. Upper 70s may be pushing it.
