High of 79 F today. Now if I can just manage to avoid 80 F tomorrow...
If the NW flow is strong enough this weekend, it will happen!
An area in far western Oklahoma near the border to Colorado that averages over 25" per year to be exact.
We're forecast 69/58 for Saturday down here according to TWC and 72/57 according to the NWS. Much better than the weather we've been having, but it would be nice to see those numbers go down a bit. Of course, back to the bull**** 82/71 days right after.
Is this winter going to be hopelessly delayed, or a total disaster like 2011-2012? I would like a winter that actually happens during, um, "winter". As in a good snow before New Year's Day and the coldest period between Christmas and Valentine's Day.
In the summer, the current prevailing weather pattern would result in widespread 90s and 100s in the Northeast, South, Ohio Valley and (to a lesser extent) Great Lakes, right?
Any moisture (green colors) on the north side of the thick blue line = snow. Notice.. none for the East next 14 days only scattered stuff around the Northeast and Lake Effect snows. When its cold, there's no storms.
Notice the snowstorm over and over again in the plains states and Minnesota. That's about where the Jet axis is and has been and isn't changing!
Similar circumstances in White House, TN. I remember it. It was 4 days before my 21st birthday.
Cool, didn't know your birthday was Christmas!
Look at all the severe weather that night. 3 reports of EF1 tornado in KY (including one county over from me) plus house siding ripped off in Lexington. So weird that I have no recollection of this.

Probably widespread upper 70s dewpoints and thunderstorms, given that we've been in S/SW flow. But just wait, as soon as we reach July it'll be completely flipped with one Canadian high after another invading from the NW.
Many people in the US have never experienced anything like a warm December in the east, with a cold west.
Unless they are old enough to remember 1984
Or are really old
It's interesting, as somebody pointed out, because what happens next.
Of course it could be like 72, which wouldn't be all that bad for some of us.
Of course that might mean a Feb 1972, which nobody ever wants to see again.
