Not to make anyone lose any sleep but I wouldn't mind this pattern shift in 384 hours. I am just doing some late night February wishcasting
Wow, thats kinda ironic that you point that out. For the last week, without looking at any long long term models, I have been predicting the first week of March to be the first reasonable severe storm event in the South, west of the Mississippi and I dont mean right along the Gulf Coast. But who knows, an intense high might just set up over the Rockies and park itself there killing any kind of chance of severe weather.
But for all those *****ing about the 2-3 feet of snow, you dont obviously know the meteorological implications that can have come springtime. You better really be glad you have that snow. The more the better. Im telling ya, more moisture in the ground will reward when Spring really does come around.
But actually the synoptic patter were currently in is par for the course this time of year with the parade of systems. I just completed my weekly OWL shift this afternoon and its amazing to see these waves come in right on the heels of the one before it. Its like theres no time at all before ones exiting the state and the next one is busting in the door on the west side. If we can just get these systems to slow down and allow enough time for return flow to have its effects, then maybe we might get lucky. But Im hoping for the first week of March however I wouldnt put money it, Ive been wrong before, in fact, Im wrong most of the time..its just the rare times im right, Im right on an epic scale.
