Hey Eric, Southwest Wisconsin here! I so enjoy your detailed videos, great work and thank you for all of the time and energy you put into them. Yes, we are in a much drier and colder pattern… for now. Having lived my whole life in the Midwest (Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin), I can definitely attest that our weather as a whole is much more unpredictable. That being said, the farmers and naturalists in my family told me as a kid that Mother Nature always balances herself. It may not be pretty at times, but she will make it happen. I would not be shocked to see our weather turn very stormy in late January and stay that way through Spring. Some of our worst Midwest snowstorms/blizzards have occurred well into winter.
the "Heavier" snowfall near Aberdeen, SD was QUITE the little snow squall on the 10th... visibility right after sunset was about 300' to see oncoming headlights near Columbia, SD. an hour of intense winds and snow then clear skies immediately after. Typical Dakotas' weather lol
Once again great video! Eric and Matt I really appreciate you guys. We recovered a good bit of moisture here in central VA apps. So that was awesome! Have a good day guys.
Love your Show so in-depth. .Your an hour South of Home for me in Winnipeg. If you ever come up Portage and Main can be the coldest place on the Planet with the Wind Chill. -31 C without the Wind this morning.
ERIC SNODGRASS my friend happy holidays to you and your family from Chambersburg Pennsylvania. Very busy times for you? What is your winter outlook for East Coast USA updated as LA Nada or very weak brief LA NINA likely. Arctic regions record SNOWPACK and icepacks. MJO is one to watch NOW. 1.5" snow ❄️❄️ here in Chambersburg pa for the season, not much. Hoping for the long term heat later December through March
While we (Fargo) may have an urban heat island and it may be from the extra people, the actual reason is, it’s because of the warmth of everyone’s heart who lives here!! What other reason could there be?! 🤔😃 Actually our low this morning was only -12, one of the warmer temps in the area.
At the 21:00 mark, you stated that you think the MJO will get to phase 8. After that, you explained all of the reasons why it won't. Everything I listened to says that it will continually stay in the warm phases. Do you really think it will ever get to phase 8, or is that a pipe dream that needs to be squelched?
Pattern has been stuck since late November till now with MJO in phase 5. We go from one dry pattern into another. Most of this year has been really inactive here in the Eastern Ozarks of Missouri. Just hope we get these rains coming in the future days ahead. Have not seen a white Christmas in years. This is not true Midwest weather at all.
I hope this pattern makes an adjustment too. As soon as this flow starts coming out of the Southwest we will be in much better shape for moisture. But while the MJO stays in Phase 5-6 (forced to stay there by the currently stronger Tradewinds from the La Niña) there will be a large drier-than-average region in the central parts of North America.
@@ConduitAg Just worried about the Spring I have a feeling of a repeat of 2012 heat and dryness. What are your thoughts. The severe weather will be null too. But that's what I have been reading and have a meteorologist friend that says very hot dry spring and summer.
Why does it seem like there is a background state of the MJO living in 4-5-6, Easterlies, and drier patter over the US? When do you think we break up the chain and which one will do it, it’s not like La Niña is dominating either. It feels like an anomaly when the MJO gets into 8-1-2. Maybe La Niña is stronger than models/ocean temps give it credit?

Awesome video Eric. 👍😊

thanks for the report, if I recall correctly last year when you were in the Dakotas you did not even need a jacket!!!!!
yep - I remember that too. What a difference
Thats the beauty of ND. If you don't like the weather, just wait awhile, it'll change. lol
Love your Show so in-depth.

Ha! I saw road signs last night that said 130 miles to Winnipeg! I started wondering how much colder it was there this morning.
We have a couple living Alaska around Denali. They had -35° high with -41°low last week. I wouldn't bet against AI model next week.😊
Thanks for teaching me.

Tom - I completely agree. I have never met a stranger in the Dakotas.
Thanks of Brazil
Excuse me, do you think southeast Michigan could see any severe thunderstorms next week? 😰 Sorry for asking, I have very bad storm anxiety...

How do I get this emailed to me like in the past?? Thanks in advance.
