Finally some interesting weather
Earlier this winter, a few folks were wondering why there was very little weather discussion this winter. Several of us responded with words effectively saying that the weather was boring this winter so far.
Well, it is getting much more interesting! For the first time this winter the upper air "jets" look like they might be coming together. When this happens, there is often a big storm. At this point, I do not totally buy into all three coming together, so Henry's "Big Storm" is not a certain thing, yet. I do believe we will see a storm, how big is the question.
The most interesting thing right now is storm track. Models shifted the track significantly east in their runs last night. However, the storm is 4 days out and model shifts for one run do not define the track. So, if the future runs hold with the models eastward shift, we could get a snow storm on Monday night into Tuesday night.
I believe the next few days will see the models shifting more westward, as they often do this time of the year. However, that is just a 'gut' call. If this happens, whatever the size of the storm, it would be more wet than white.
Bottom line is we owe "Mother Nature and the Models" (sounds like a great name for a girl band) a big thank you for finally giving us something interesting to talk about.
In two days time, we should have a better feel for what is most likely to happen. Until then, we can enjoy the discussion. It is finally interesting!
