Cold January on tap

p_levert · Dec 21, 2019

From the NWS: https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/30day/

Precipitation is supposed to be below average. But I don't believe this takes into account lake-effect. So maybe not so bad on the snowfall side as well.

Any weather-geek comments?

Yes January is looking cold, certainly to start. Couple weather guys I follow have been pretty good with cold Nov, warmer Dec and now have been predictng a colder J/F/M. Hope it pans out.

Unfortunately we may pay the price next weekend. Hopefully the forecast improves but not great right now.

Mini ice age I hear for while like 3. Decades be awesome for us people
Low sunspots also

Once the idiot in the White House gets impeached the global warming will start again. You know, the truth.

Far from a done deal. And the Euro provides a post rain snow event. CAD even takes it south, though that's unlikely. But again, not a done deal...

...and again around the 9th...

Yikes.

January cold wave looking to be delayed according to current teleconnections, the MJO, etc.

looks worse every update. keeps getting warmer.

But then it’s getting colder again in today’s forecast... fingers crossed

What about Canada? Rain there even?

NYDB · Dec 26, 2019

Euro looks better. Fingers crossed for sure

NYDB · Dec 26, 2019

GFS looks better too. More ice less rain

Glenn · Dec 27, 2019

Agreed. While not ideal, things are looking much better vs a few days ago.

When is this cold January starting? 50 degrees in SoVT predicted for 1/11. The typical Jan thaw.

Still hard to predict this far out.

Josh Fox's latest post says February. So much for "Cold January on tap".

Newpylong · Jan 6, 2020

Yep, Saturday looks like a washout. It's getting obnoxious to see all the snow you just made wash away time after time.

mikec142 · Jan 6, 2020

Early in the week, last week, this past Friday looked like a washout. On Thursday, the forecast shifted just enough that it didn't rain up in the MRV and Saturday and Sunday brought 6" of snow. Glad I went.

Was planning on going again this coming weekend. I'm gonna do the same thing as this past weekend. Game time decision on Thursday night/Friday morning.

A lot of the reports don't take in the mountains. Hell it rains at the bottom of my road in Stamford but snows at my house up the hill.
I'll decide Friday but even if its Just Sunday I'll go up
