Yes, we are affected. Generally drier and warmer. So far that is the case though we just had a bout of "wet", a mix of rain and snow. Because our ground is frozen and with the runoff from this latest precip., we had some very minor flooding in the yard. Today, with a cold air mass moving down from Canada, it looks to be a nice sunny, cold day.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11178891567581366075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3340845811317381971.post-60542176336691969492010-01-06T07:28:15.417-06:002010-01-06T07:28:15.417-06:00Hey, great link.

I still feel like a space cadet with this sinus infection, but I'm still enjoying the flurry of attention this storm is receiving. We may get 4-6" from it with wind chill readings close to -30. I'll try to get pictures online this weekend.WxWatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741058675657292760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3340845811317381971.post-9097012177033617822010-01-05T21:44:05.858-06:002010-01-05T21:44:05.858-06:00Oh, and... it looks like you have a good snowfall ...Oh, and... it looks like you have a good snowfall heading towards you!Josh Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809581468183556700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3340845811317381971.post-18367937161285645552010-01-05T21:23:34.421-06:002010-01-05T21:23:34.421-06:00El Nino for us usually means warmer temps and less...El Nino for us usually means warmer temps and less snow fall.

My mother called just today to see if we were going to cancel our trip down to Rolla because of the cold. <br /><br />Bob, it's interesting that you bring up El Nino. You know, with our recent surge in snow and cold temperatures, I had forgotten completely that it was in effect this year. We haven't felt it so far. We <i>usually</i> experience milder and drier winters with it, which hasn't been the case. It'll be interesting to see what January brings.<br /><br />You say you are way off. Does El Nino increase or decrease your precip? OSNW3, same question.WxWatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741058675657292760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3340845811317381971.post-15544786023201562072010-01-05T09:33:17.563-06:002010-01-05T09:33:17.563-06:00If the jet stream levels out, I think we'll fe...If the jet stream levels out, I think we'll feel the effects here in WI. But... that is yet to be seen.<br /><br />Great December recap, WxWatcher. I like what you have going on here. This cold snap we're all in affects our regions differently... and I know first hand as my mother in-law thought it was too cold to go anywhere the other day when it was 8 degrees. :) <br /><br />8 degrees?! Shoot. That ain't bad at all.

The NOAA El Nino website shows you in a no change zone. We are way off in our precip. out here. The El Nino effect is in place and having an effect on us.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11178891567581366075noreply@blogger.com
