We also haven't had a single sub-40º high yet this winter. Sunday is forecasted to be 42/35, then rising up to 50s in the forecast from then on.
No rain in the forecast tomorrow thru Monday. Maybe a few showers tomorrow night. It was supposed to rain 8 days in a row. These long range forecasts cannot be trusted.

I don't see anything below 20 in Indy's forecast. Not exactly an arctic outbreak. That's normal weather.

I got 3.38" of rain between the night of Jan 1 and Jan 3. The airport recorded 3.74" so far in 2019.

I measured 7.48" between Dec 26 and Jan 3!

6+ inches of rain across a good swath of the deep South over the past 10 days.

It stayed below 50F yesterday (max was 49F) though sky turned mostly clear late in the afternoon. Temp dropped to 35F this morning with a bit of frost.

Supposed to warm up; forecast high of 65F today and around 70F the beginning of next week. Not much of a rain chance the next few days for a change.

Flood warning due to high water levels in rivers.

The 3-4 week outlook shows colder temps for a good part of the central and eastern U.S.

Perhaps increased likelihood of winter storms as well.






Quote:
The precipitation forecast trends drier than normal for much of the CONUS, tied to the anticipated ridge-trough pattern helping to keep the Pacific jet away from the West coast, while the trough over the East imports continental polar airmasses that are relatively dry. One exception is above-normal precipitation being favored from the Gulf Coast through Mid-Atlantic, with a mean frontal zone possible here and increased storm activity possible along the baroclinic zone setting up along the eastern seaboard. While not directly implicated, this circulation could increase odds for a substantial winter storm across the major metropolitan areas in the East. Above-normal precipitation is slightly favored over the High Plains of Montana, where periods of upslope precipitation become more likely as the period progresses. Aforementioned anomalous southerly flow over southern Alaska increases the odds for above-normal precipitation there, though the panhandle is more likely to see below-normal precipitation downstream of the forecast 500-hPa ridge.

This morning. Upper Low over Virginia. And no cold air under it. In January. Nuts!





Here are the temps at 5000'. Not even cold up there!





At the surface here is the storm track. Would of been a nice 6-8" snowstorm! Another waste

Very cold air temperatures offshore from Portugal and Galicia. At one spot north of Galicia even as low as 5°C, whereas the land in Ferrol on the coast is at 12°C very close to it.

What year Vette do you have?

So maybe this SSW event won't have similar results as past events?
