Already near 50 this morning in many parts of the area. That 17F up in Burlington can't be right. LOL








Interesting that by day 10 the Euro also develops a DEEP trough in eastern CONUS






Bastardi thinks that between Feb 15 and March 15th the pattern will match this analog blend

There is much more snow than expected. Everyone is staying inside. Almost everything is closed today.

If these models verify, mid Feb looks rather average on both.

Edmonton has reported snow falling for 71 out of the first 80 hours of February thus far. This has at least stopped temperatures from plummeting any further. Currently -28.2°C but areas north of us are extremely cold. The cold spot in Alberta (and Canada) is Teepee Creek near Grand Prairie at -46.1°C/-51°F.

You know...... I love reading your posts....but I hate when you Western folks are cold and snowy! #FlipTheJet!

See anything? (Not the Helicopter). (Not the camera)...


Wind direction is from the SouthWest with warm air. I hate when that thing points southwards. lol
