Good Monday afternoon, gang. Our extraordinary run of harsh winter weather continues as thermometers head back into the brutal range tonight. This will be followed up by a POTENTIAL storm system impacting parts of the state on Wednesday. I’m tracking additional systems for the upcoming weekend.<\/p>\n
I’m already seeing my twitter timeline lighting up with “winter’s over” from some of the same folks who have said that since November. I will keep saying this until I’m blue in the face (that might be an improvement from my normal look:))…\u00a0 be careful where you get your forecast from.<\/p>\n
Lows tonight will hit the single digits and could head toward 0 or below for areas that totally clear out. Gusty winds may give us wind chill numbers nearing -10 at times.<\/p>\n
The impact we have from the Wednesday storm is yet to be determined. I doubt we will have a firm grasp on this until later Tuesday or Tuesday night. The NAM went back east, but the GFS is coming west. The American models are simply inferior to models from outside the country.<\/p>\n
The Canadian Model continues to hold pretty steady…<\/p>\n
I have no beef with what the Canadian is showing. That’s a solution that makes the most sense as of now.\u00a0The Short Range Ensemble Forecast model keeps inching westward with the precipitation shield…<\/p>\n The SREF has had a hot hand this winter, so it deserves some respect.<\/p>\n Looking down the road… the Canadian shows a\u00a0nice clipper\u00a0diving in to start the weekend…<\/p>\n The same run shows another clipper to end the weekend…<\/p>\n![\"Canadian](\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Canadian-31.png\")
