The Blizzard of '78, 36" of snow 55 mph winds. The thing I remember about that one is that it completely caught me off guard. I got up at 3am to go to my UPS preload job and the only thing I could see of my car is the antenna sticking up out of the snow. Guys like you hopefully will give us a much improved warning.
I lived in Cleveland then, 28 years old. It was the most awesome snowstorm ❄️! Awesome, as in frightening, powerful, beautiful 😍. The house was rattling with the constant high winds, and the snow just kept coming, creating massive drifts, covering the cars parked outside... Burying the cars! Miraculously, the power stayed on.
As a Canadian, where I live, we get constant storms that do not show up on radar. Two years ago it was 2 weeks straight of drift storms. So high that they covered buildings and ended up 30 feet high.
How can a storm not show up on radar? Radar literally measures what is present in the air. If the storm is there, it will have a radar return. Is it because weather radar is badly designed or something? I really don’t understand what you’re saying, but I’m also not a radar engineer, just someone with a basic understanding of physics.
@@shibasurfing I’m guessing they mean not snow storms but drifts, ones that down rise very high in the air, I live in Tennessee, and last March we had a snowstorm, the next day we had some pretty crazy drifts going on for our area. Never appearing on radar
@@TropicalThunder21 Yeah, I grew up in Colorado so I’m familiar with the drift phenomenon (but I was never looking at weather radar while experiencing it lol). I just did some reading on Wikipedia and it does appear that weather radar points mainly up, with a significant blind spot near the ground.
This kind of pattern can produce unusually warm and dry winter in the southern Appalachian mountains. It also sets us up for a couple of out-of-nowhere crippling snow/ice events that we're never prepared to deal be with. ROCK ON RYAN!
I’m in East Tennessee and only been here 5 months. Been shocked at how many days we’ve had rain or cloudy. Really has me struggling with depression. I’m just hoping this isn’t normal.
Grew up along Lake Huron in Michigan, been in the Triad area of NC for over 35 years...I guess the winter "kid" is still in me...always exciting to get snow, or the anticipation of it. We're just over an hour away from the ski slopes, tubing runs...can't wait!
I remember that blizzard too of 78. I don't remember any kind of warning either. I was 18 at home with my mother. I walked to the front window in the living room, and couldn't understand why I couldn't see outside. At first thought the glass was fogged up on the inside and quickly realized it was fine. I saw thick snow swirling right in front of the glass. I could only see a few inches to the tips of the bushes branches just outside the window. Called my mom over and she said "It's a blizzard!" Dad called shortly after and said he wouldn't be home for several days. He was at work in Sharonville, Ohio, close to Cincinnati. He had a hour drive 1 way. I live in Ohio, and pray we don't have that kind of snow. My husband and I are older in our early 60's, and neither one of us can shovel snow. His heart and my back. Guess I will just have to make sure we have plenty of food and meds ahead if time.
My husband was in Massachusetts and followed a semi truck all across new York. Was afraid if he got off the interstate he wouldn't get back on. I shoveled all dayto keep a few feet clear.
I remember the Columbus Ohio snow storm April 4, 1987. In 1987 I was a senior in high school in Columbus Ohio I am now a retired aviation meteorologist from a rather prestigious airline based at KCMH. I am a papered hillbilly and I am fairly well versed in folklore meteorology and as folklore predicts this year in central Ohio is going to be rather exciting. I recall my grandmother telling me a slick coated horse who drops hair early indicated a very fast onset cold winter. I happen to be very close to a slick coated horse, he has lived with me for 11 years, his entire life, and he has never lied to me and he started dropping hair in early August.
@@steveashcraft718 sure it can. i remember one in the early 80s too. 82 i think. they were on the radio in st louis begging anyone with a snowmobile to help at the hospitals
Last year here in Virginia I remember Christmas was 60 degrees, and then a week later we had over a foot of snow and some of the worst outages and down trees I have seen in a long time.
Just 45 minutes south of Knoxville we got about 1 1/2" more snow than our supposed average last year, so I'll be curious to see what happens this year. As long as we have our Bread, Milk and Eggs... We are good to go 🤗💨❄️⛄🌨️
thank you for remembering the 77 storm. I tell people about it and the month we missed school because of the coal strike and I get blank stares. Very cold winter that year.
@@homefrontforge Yes, I was 13 years old at that time and I remembered how my friend and myself used to go snow shoveling. Made a lot of money that year. I remembered how we had about 15 inches of snow and up to 20 in snow drifts. Good old times
When you say "frozen precipitation".... I'm hearing sleet and freezing rain. I'm right on the light blue-white boundary in southern TN.... We're not much for snow here.
I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We typically get measurable snowfall once every 5 years or so. If it's not measurable snow, we get freezing rain/sleet and icy roads about once every 4 years. The last measurable snowfall event we got was December 2017. That next month (January 2018), it was in the mid teens one morning with icy roads after the previous night of having freezing rain. Typically, the immediate coast only sees a couple of hard freezes per season. Some seasons, we don't even get a hard freeze.
Different story here in North Mississippi. In Oxford, it snowed twice last winter 2022... once in January (1" maybe), and again the first week of March (2"+), which took a few days to completely melt off. Also, quite a few nights of mid- to high-20's temperatures.
I love that you mentioned my city, Columbus Ohio. I do remember that April 4th snowstorm. It was a beautiful snow fall but it did melt fast. The blizzard of 1978 hit us hard here too. Love ya Ryan, keep up the good work!
Hit us hard in Toronto Canada, too. I still remember how I had to find a winter coat that could handle the wind and bitter frigid conditions. I kept that coat for 20 years, just in case in happened again. Wishing you well this winter, Karen!
I moved to Ohio last year from the west coast. I’m about an hour west of Columbus. Last winter was pretty mild, and I’ve been hearing of a harsh winter coming. Should be a learning experience! Good luck y’all
Yes I remember the Blizzard of 78 and the storm in April the one in April we were going to Graceland Shopping Center for dinner and they couldn't wait to get us out of there so they could close and send everybody home it was snowing so bad
Remember the winter of '95-'96? I worked at the NWS at Port Columbus then. The last snow (flurries) was about 22 April. I was on duty doing a 4-midnight. Jym Ganahl would NOT stop calling me trying to get me to call just one more 0.1 of an inch. If I would have, that would have gotten us to 54.2 inches for the season. But I didn't. 54.1 inches was it, tied for second greatest. I can still see what I imagined him to be doing... walking around WCMH with a ruler convincing himself that I was wrong. So long ago now...
My son says the exact same thing about people stating he can be wrong so much and keep his job. So frustrating. But he loves weather… he’s been in it for a long time! And he’s right about 99% of the time. He’s good at his job…. Keep it up Ryan. I can see you love weather as much as my son!
As a kid in central NY we had a blizzard back in the mid 70's that trapped us at home for over a week. When it finally stopped, dad brought snow in to melt in the sinks, and tub. There was no place to push it to. It took days to dig out to our driveway, and the snow completely covered the house. We had snow tunnels, snow caves, and slides for weeks afterward. School was out for like two weeks, I thought my mom was going to lose her mind with 3 kids and dad at home for that long.😆
@@jessi9742 The winter of 77-78 was a very bad winter in southern Ohio. A lot of people were stranded in their homes for a couple of weeks. I was in Law Enforcement at the time, I had to work, but I was young and I didn't mind it. I know Quail froze to death in southern Ohio that year. The Ohio River also froze over in places .
@@johnyoung9874 yes! We're from Indianapolis. That is exactly the storm she's talking about. I was born in 85, so I don't know that storm, but she and my aunts and older cousins always talk about frozen pipes, hoarding food, people stuck. She has pictures of the house, cars.. literally buried in snow! My cousin sledding off the house. 😂
Ok Ryan. I'm pretty sure it's not about to start snowing here in southern Arizona. It's 97 degrees right now 😆. But that's no big deal, we hardly ever get snow, or rain for that matter. I still love your forecasts!💕✌
Check out the snowstorm in the Texas panhandle in 1957. Amarillo had drifts that went to the rafters. My dad had to dig out from the house, I was born just 2 weeks before it hit (March 4). It was a mess. As for the stick, my husband and I were talking about getting one and sending in a "Nope, not yet" picture because we're 1/2 way to Galveston (15 miles from the coast) and I have seen only about 3-4 snows in the 30 years we've lived here. We actually had the first EVER white Christmas in 2004. They were making snowmen on the beach down there. But we doubt we'll have it this year.
We plan to head down south from Tennessee this winter. Since you're from Texas, where do you recommend to stay out of the winter areas? Lived in central Oklahoma all my life, so this year we wanna miss all that lol Thanks!
Around 2006, we had 3 snowstorms back to back, the bank were so high that we didn't saw the houses on the other side of the road. Many people ended up stuck in their cars and we had them to stay in the municipal building used for reunion and activities. We did some cooking and provided them with blankets and the police were knocking on the door to ask us for help. It was a emergency situation. Me and my girlfriend missed work because the roads were totally blocked by abandoned cars and snow. But we did go to the center were the police was bringing people out of their cars with snowmobiles. We helped them to put the bed and bring alot of food. It was something I will never forget. We still managed to have fun with theses people. Many other families came to help with us. The next day, my girlfriend and other ladies organised a "cinema" for the kids and I helped collecting food and cook for the families. There was at least 100-150 persons. It was in a small town in rural Québec, Canada. That was the biggest storm in years. We had at least 4 metres of snow in 2 days. 1 metres is 39 inches approximately. Everyone who has a snowmobile was asked to help to pick people up from their car. I was a fun but tiresome experience.
I plow roads in the western Maine mountains where we should on average see more then 6-8 feet of snow through the winter. We've always judged how the winter's going by how many times we have to shelf snow off the tops of guardrails. Since 2018'ish we've only had to shelf once, maybe twice through the season but last winter we could see the guardrails all winter long. I've done this job for 15 years and I've seen a steady decline in the amount of snow every year and it worries me.
Lately I noticed that people are speaking more and more without saying …umm .. well… euh.. no now it is now more and more fluently !! Feels so nice listening to you guys!! Bravo!!
50 miles west of Cleveland, Ohio here...thanks for the warning. I knew I should have picked up that snow blower at the garage sale the other day; I looked at it. Oh well.
Thanks Ryan! I was giving the snow blower the evil eye this am. Closed the pool today( very sad day), hoping you are right about the snow fall in my area!
Thanks for your update. Disappointed here in western appalachia MD for another warm winter. We NEED snow for our gardens and hay fields. Guess no sense in a purchase for a snow meter when it's not going to amount to much once again. :( Love your forecasts.
The bright red thumbnail that drew me here indicated the opposite. I saw that w/the 4’ warning & was flipping. Then no mention during the actual vid. Was the opposite...wth?
My wife, my cat and I were heading home after visiting my folks in Ohio. We were on I-81 North, a little south of Watertown, NY, and moving quite well. A Trooper waved us off the highway near the town of Adams center. We got stuck halfway up the ramp. We had to leave the car, and some nice local people gave us a ride to the fire house. Cots we’re set up on the station floor, and we settled in for a five day stay. There were around 80 people sheltering where we were; I heard there were around 200 at the neighboring station in Adams. While there, the men sometimes were taken out to help move snow off barn roofs, we were told some roofs caved in and killed many head of livestock. It was a very interesting experience, and I’ve been intensely interested in preparedness ever since. For anyone interested… The kitten handled the adventure beautifully, and never saw a cot again!
What yr was that? Feel so bad for the cattle. :/ Worse for the thousands our gov killed to keep them off our dinner tables this winter, however. This country’s in some big time trouble. Weather being the least of it.
Yep Watertown and Buffalo and Oswego areas always get hit the hardest by lake effect ! I lived in Liverpool,ny most of my life and have seen some incredible amounts of snow! I live in southern IL were a teaspoon a snow is a lot so weird seeing such a difference and for school it don't take much for a snow day were I'm at now but back in ny a snow day was a rare !
Back in the early 60s, we came home from a weekend vacation to 5 feet of snow! In 2000, we had 3' at Thanksgiving, 3' at Christmas & 3' at New Years & sore backs & shoulders!
So the big snowstorm that I thought was in 88 was in 87 at Claypool hill va the snow drifted up to the roof and was the biggest snow I've ever seen. There was no light coming thru the sliding glass door. I'm so glad I seen this because this storm was an amazing event that sparked my interest in weather. It put the so called storm of the century or superstorm in 93 to shame in snow fall total here. It drifted so much I couldn't tell you an exact amount but it was around 3 to 4 feet when the 93 storm was only 2!
I remember the '93 snow storm, same year the Missouri River flooded really bad. That year is seared into my brain, the snow was deep enough to carve out a series of tunnels and igloo like structures when I was 7 and lasted days. I got the idea because I had to dig myself out of my place and just started tunneling instead. Had to been more than 2' were I was.
Hi Ryan, being from Syracuse NY , unless we get more than 2 feet of snow in a storm , school is open. however we are prepared for it and each Town has their own complement of snow removal equipment
I used to live in Buffalo. Usually the weather wasn’t too bad for them to keep up with except for when I got stuck in Lackawanna for Snowvember in 2014. Stuck in the house like a week 😅
Normally I don't like the snow and cold but I would honestly love an above average snowfall this year. I live in Kansas City MO and I'm so sick of it being hot and dry.
Did you hear everyone here in California screaming " Oh no, not another year of La Nina?" Life sucks here in California. We are dry as a bone and will stay that way.
As a NYer part of me is happy about this but part of me is sad. I’m happy because snow especially lots of it makes it harder to see and travel but I’m sad because sometimes the snow looks so amazing when it first falls.
He opened by talking about the weekend of 4-4-87. I've lived in Fairmont, West Virginia, all my life, and remember it snowing that weekend. It was one of those heavy, wet snows. In 1950 (quite awhile before I was born), it snowed the day after Thanksgiving and amounted to five feet. I well remember the "snowpocalypse" of 1993. The brunt of it came on March 13, but as I remember, it tapered off that evening. I'm 59, and that's the most snow I remember.
In Iowa, we get more than that every year, 4ft. Is nothing, it shows up around late November, a Or December, and doesn't melt until Feb, or March. When I was in my 20's the snow was like 10ft. To 12ft. Walls on each side of the highway
I live in Western NY snow capitol. We usually get 200 inches or more a year. The last 2 years we haven't. We get tons of lake effect. One year we got 325 inches. I am the co-op for my area.
Thanks Ryan for all you and the Y'ALL SQUAD do to keep us informed 👍 💞🤗 This was a great fun video!! Your graphics and explanations are second to none!! I'm so happy to be a part of the Y'ALL SQUAD 💞🤗💞🙏🇺🇸🙏
Middle Tennessee checking in. Last year the dogs want nuts when snow stick. This winter we’re prepared, but anticipation for the pups . It’s really amazing how much the love the snow. That first day we get snow pack is sooooo exciting for them,
In the 90s, i remember snow drifts that went all the way to the roof of our house, and at our school's football field fence, it covered that completely. We would walk over it. I lived in a small town in Iowa. We had huge open fields around us so the wind was intense.
1976 snow in Altamonte Spring Mall on my car on the ground and we made snowballs. this is Orlando. 2002 Snow flurries at the Kennedy Space Center I worked at the building next to that Huge NASA logo Building
Here in Southern Indiana, I have noticed the leaves are falling and have been for a week now pretty steadily. At the same time, big spiders are trying to come inside too. We live in the country so we get spiders that come in from time to time, but this year they are huge, coming in 1 or 2 in a day, and they are early. Typically, I don't see bugs trying to do this until after Halloween, and it'll usually be 1 or 2 a week. Something is definitely going on this year that just feels different. The atmosphere feels strange.
i also live in indiana and have a finished basement and garage, and both are swamped with spiders. nothing harmful. just cobweb spiders. but i can move something and then less than 2 days later its got webs cris-crossed over it.
I live in the suburbs of Knoxville, TN. This summer I’ve seen plenty of rabbits, maybe slightly fewer squirrels than usual, plenty of possums, normal songbird and local raptor numbers. Oddly, I usually see a good number of chipmunks, but none this summer! We get occasional reports of wandering bears and coyotes. However, frogs are far fewer and fireflies are also decreased in number. Local ponds still get visits from ducks, geese and herons. Not as many wasps and hornets this summer, which was fine with me.
The Blizzard of 1996, I was Driving a Tractor trailer, Tanker at that. It started at 2:00 am and snowed for 2 days and 3 nights ! We got more than 3 feet and 65 mile an hour wind gust & 35 sustain winds. It was slot for South Jersey & Delawar . I went to work and my car was covered & I couldn't even see the top of it. Had to take the company truck home! WoW !
The Blizzard of 78. I was living in Milford Indiana. The weather came on and the weather man said it would snow over 36 inches overnight. I laughed and said, He was full of Sh*#!. He was because it snowed 47 inches. I remember opening the front door and the glass storm door was snow clear to the top. I thought we were living in a Rod Serlings Twilight Zone episode.
So in my state (Maryland) I actually think this winter is gonna be harsher. I’ve noticed a bunch of caterpillars on the sidewalks, it’s a below average hurricane season, it’s a La Niña year, and we’re due for a very big snow. This all usually indicates a harsh winter.
Blizzard of 78. Western Michigan. I was 12 or 13. Wow! I had to crawl out the window of our storm door and start shoveling so my dad could get out of the house and help me shovel a path out to the road. Awesome storm.😎😎😎
It’s been sporadic af in central Missouri. We went like 3 solid years of maybe a total of 6-12 for a whole season. Then this last season was well above 24 we had a few snows all stretched out over a few weeks too, like 6-8 this week… melts off…. 6-8 the following week… the weather swung up and down a lot
I live on the gulf coast we got. One. Inch of snow five years ago I make a trip every winter to either missouri or sometimes further north indiana or ohio or green bay to see. Snow
@@michaelsuzio4364 we have had a FEW YEARS where it absolutely shits on us… we get like a few 10-12 inch snows a year and one year prolly 10 years ago.. we got 28 inches in a day.. I’ve heard Montana and North Dakota have gotten like 3-4 feet… I would love to see that in person
La Nina usually means much more precip in the pac NW. Judging by how active the spiders have been up here I am leaning towards a very wet fall/winter around Seattle.
I'm located in northern Ohio's secondary sno belt where the average is 5 to 6 feet, and I routinely travel to the east side of Cleveland (the primary sno belt) where the average jumps to 6 to 8 feet. I would be happy if my zip code only received 4 feet this winter
I actually really hope for an unseasonably warm winter. The energy prices over here in Europe have shot through the roof and a cold winter would definitely do it for a lot of people who can't pay their bills. And even if you can pay the bill, the money has to come from somewhere which you can't spend on other things anymore so that has consequences too. Really hope we sail through the winter with 50f to 60f temperatures.
Maybe your leaders shouldn't have made your countries reliant on a hostile regime for its energy and then laughed at the weird orange man when he told them that. Don't get me wrong, I do hope that this winter goes by without mass reports of people frozen to death in their own homes. Nobody deserves to die because of stupid decisions by stupid politicians but current energy problems is the result of bad leadership that was knowingly voted for. Places like Germany, who has the 6th largest reserve of coal in the world, try and "go green" by shutting down their coal and nuclear plants only to then go and buy gas from a regime that has been openly hostile to them for years (because you know, long as you don't produce the natural gas yourself, you can still use it and be "green"). Then when a certain man points out the folly of such an endeavor, he gets laughed at. The nuclear is especially idiotic since it's just as a green and far more efficient than wind, solar, or hydro. Even France, which has perfected the art of mass nuclear energy, is trying to downturn its usage. 75% of its energy comes from nuclear power with only 13 metric tons of long lived nuclear waste *per year* and that waste is the best, safest, and most environmentally friendly contain nuclear waste in the world. But no, they'd rather throw it away for unreliable sources of energy. Of course, it's not helped that our current president is also actively trying to make us dependent on hostile regimes for our energy needs. If he and his cohorts wanted to, we could easily supply Europe with all the energy it needs while keeping ourselves independent too. But no, they just want to copy the European plan, which has obviously worked out so well. It's just a bad deal all around. I wish we lived in a world like Star Trek where no one lacked for anything. Sadly, we don't.
@@randomlyentertaining8287 yeah .. unfortunately I couldn't agree more with you. And it's not only the current leaders who are to blame but probably a whole bunch of 'em going back decades.
One of the things I like about current times is that instead of watching the tv morning news to see if your school or work place is closed for winter weather we can now get a text or call in for an update. Some things of the past is better, but this is much better. And, I think schools, at least here in the South, will call it sooner than in the past.
Love the information! I follow the animal and insect behaviors, along with the trees. So far I've had an early mouse and spider visit about two weeks ago...squirrels have been a little busy too. Just sayin'...🙂
@@rah2209 I have faith that winter will return as usual! When we don’t get snow, we get the lake effect cold rain and that’s even worse when it freezes on the roads.
@@john-or9cf oh I get that winter will still come and I TOTALLY understand the lake effect snow, wind and cold, but we can still pray it’s not a bad one.
Love your show! I also love the fact that you use data from past snow patterns. I also watch the science about the weakening of our Magnetosphere during this excursionreversal event. The weaker magnetospher plays a great role in keeping the Jet Stream in tight rotation patterns. The the weakening of the mag. we see the Jet Stream wandering further out of it's tight pattern. Leading to "snow" events in the South as it reaches further down the continent. It is a difficult to predict occurance. Keep up the great work.
Fun to listen to. You brought up 1987 snow records, I'm a child of the 1950's. I remember a snow on Easter Sunday around 1957. Messed with my sleeveless outfit & Easter sandals. My Daddy forbid me to wear them because of the snow. I rebelled & walked to Sunday services. I arrived very wet & very cold, but felt proud to be in my pretty clothes. I got very, very punished for disobeying. You should check it out.
I like the potential of getting 3 to 4 feet of snow this upcoming Winter (as long as it's not just one big storm and only bits of snow for the remainder of Winter). I live in New Jersey...Hackettstown in Warren County, to be exact. But, one thing most people overlooks is that our Winters have grown much milder/warmer than those I remember from my childhood. Yes, there was the occasional warm fluke Winter during my childhood, but most others were very cold and snowy. I like those colder and snowier Winters from the aptly-named #GoodOldDays. I do *NOT* like these Spring-like Winters (with only occasional shots of cold air and snow) we've been getting in recent years. I've noticed that when we do get snow, it's often wet snow and it melts very quickly...often less than 24 hours...because of a surge of warmer temperatures that quickly follow the snow. Sometimes, it changes to sleet and/or freezing rain. I don't mind sleet so much, but I *HATE* (with a very strong passion) freezing rain! I wish that form of precipitation never existed! I'm also not fond of wet snow because it's nearly as dangerous as freezing rain. On the other hand, I don't want crippling blizzards or Nor'Easters (this region is notorious for getting them) because of the amount of damage and destruction they can bring. What I want are nice, quiet, peaceful snowstorms that bring *DRY* snow and little, if any wind. I want it to be very cold since it would favor drier snow than milder temperatures would. Ideally, temperatures between 5°F and 15°F would be best for dry snow, but I'll take colder temperatures, if possible (down to about -20°F...that's my limit).
I enjoy your content Ryan I have tuned into many live streams of severe weather coverage. Located in Tulsa Ok. an I've gotta say I don't like your outlook on snow fall for my area.. But that's because I can't stand the cold nor snow nor the people who don't know how to drive in the snow here lol a lot of people can't even drive when its raining! I just ordered a Y'all - 0 - Meter so if anything falls this year you can expect some pics from Tulsa Ok. from myself!
Hey Okie! Lived in Broken Arrow six years before we started traveling this May. We're in Tennessee now and leaving in November. Plan to head towards Arizona, but we'll see. Make sure you have them trees trimmed for them late ice storms lol Stay safe!
My parents had pics I thought was in 68 but it may have been 67 when we lived in Chicago were my dad has removed the snow from the roof of his car and all you see is humps of snow up and down the street were cars are covered underneath
The Blizzard of '78, 36" of snow 55 mph winds. The thing I remember about that one is that it completely caught me off guard. I got up at 3am to go to my UPS preload job and the only thing I could see of my car is the antenna sticking up out of the snow. Guys like you hopefully will give us a much improved warning.
We need that , but man it's going to be rough as we've aged.
My stepfather has a Blizzard of '78 picture of himself at the very top of a telephone pole that he got to from a massive snowdrift.
You know he's from New England when he starts talking about the Blizzard of 78!! Rhode Island represent
I lived in Cleveland then, 28 years old. It was the most awesome snowstorm ❄️! Awesome, as in frightening, powerful, beautiful 😍. The house was rattling with the constant high winds, and the snow just kept coming, creating massive drifts, covering the cars parked outside... Burying the cars! Miraculously, the power stayed on.
Locations in northern RI had unofficial reports of 40 to 50 inches!
As a Canadian, where I live, we get constant storms that do not show up on radar. Two years ago it was 2 weeks straight of drift storms. So high that they covered buildings and ended up 30 feet high.
Where do u live in Canada
How can a storm not show up on radar? Radar literally measures what is present in the air. If the storm is there, it will have a radar return. Is it because weather radar is badly designed or something? I really don’t understand what you’re saying, but I’m also not a radar engineer, just someone with a basic understanding of physics.
@@shibasurfing I’m guessing they mean not snow storms but drifts, ones that down rise very high in the air, I live in Tennessee, and last March we had a snowstorm, the next day we had some pretty crazy drifts going on for our area. Never appearing on radar
@@TropicalThunder21 Yeah, I grew up in Colorado so I’m familiar with the drift phenomenon (but I was never looking at weather radar while experiencing it lol). I just did some reading on Wikipedia and it does appear that weather radar points mainly up, with a significant blind spot near the ground.
You mean 9 metres *
This kind of pattern can produce unusually warm and dry winter in the southern Appalachian mountains. It also sets us up for a couple of out-of-nowhere crippling snow/ice events that we're never prepared to deal be with. ROCK ON RYAN!
Uhhhh…I liked your first sentence. Skip the second. BTW, sick of the rain, too!
@@ThePeasantsCottage At the first sign of danger, get your milk and bread. That rule has never let me down. 😉
I’m in East Tennessee and only been here 5 months. Been shocked at how many days we’ve had rain or cloudy. Really has me struggling with depression. I’m just hoping this isn’t normal.
@@133rip Don't forget the eggs lol 🤣
Grew up along Lake Huron in Michigan, been in the Triad area of NC for over 35 years...I guess the winter "kid" is still in me...always exciting to get snow, or the anticipation of it. We're just over an hour away from the ski slopes, tubing runs...can't wait!
I remember that blizzard too of 78. I don't remember any kind of warning either. I was 18 at home with my mother. I walked to the front window in the living room, and couldn't understand why I couldn't see outside. At first thought the glass was fogged up on the inside and quickly realized it was fine. I saw thick snow swirling right in front of the glass. I could only see a few inches to the tips of the bushes branches just outside the window. Called my mom over and she said "It's a blizzard!" Dad called shortly after and said he wouldn't be home for several days. He was at work in Sharonville, Ohio, close to Cincinnati. He had a hour drive 1 way. I live in Ohio, and pray we don't have that kind of snow. My husband and I are older in our early 60's, and neither one of us can shovel snow. His heart and my back. Guess I will just have to make sure we have plenty of food and meds ahead if time.
My husband was in Massachusetts and followed a semi truck all across new York. Was afraid if he got off the interstate he wouldn't get back on. I shoveled all dayto keep a few feet clear.
Let's Goooooo Fam‼️ I'm over this heatwave! Been melting here in Texas until this morning!
Im in Texas too and Im so over this insane heat! It would also be nice to have real snow… not the ice we deal with! :-)
@@justagirllookingup thank you guys for keeping it down there for once.🍻 from Indiana
I live in Texas too nd I been out here dying 😂
Texas three, 4 and 5… I’m in way north Texas and it sounds like we are going to have a bunch of snow.
I remember the Columbus Ohio snow storm April 4, 1987. In 1987 I was a senior in high school in Columbus Ohio I am now a retired aviation meteorologist from a rather prestigious airline based at KCMH.
I am a papered hillbilly and I am fairly well versed in folklore meteorology and as folklore predicts this year in central Ohio is going to be rather exciting. I recall my grandmother telling me a slick coated horse who drops hair early indicated a very fast onset cold winter. I happen to be very close to a slick coated horse, he has lived with me for 11 years, his entire life, and he has never lied to me and he started dropping hair in early August.
We love watching you with our kids! They learn so much!!
I can't possibly afford a bad winter this year. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Steve Ashcraft where do you live? What are your chances of not having a bad winter?
@@erikriza7165 , Southern Indiana. I remember the blizzard of 78 so it can happen here.
@@steveashcraft718 sure it can. i remember one in the early 80s too. 82 i think. they were on the radio in st louis begging anyone with a snowmobile to help at the hospitals
Last year here in Virginia I remember Christmas was 60 degrees, and then a week later we had over a foot of snow and some of the worst outages and down trees I have seen in a long time.
Just 45 minutes south of Knoxville we got about 1 1/2" more snow than our supposed average last year, so I'll be curious to see what happens this year. As long as we have our Bread, Milk and Eggs... We are good to go 🤗💨❄️⛄🌨️
I really hope ky gets some good snow this year
I remember the blizzard of 77 and 78. Those snow storm hit us hard here in Cleveland Ohio
thank you for remembering the 77 storm. I tell people about it and the month we missed school because of the coal strike and I get blank stares. Very cold winter that year.
@@homefrontforge Yes, I was 13 years old at that time and I remembered how my friend and myself used to go snow shoveling. Made a lot of money that year. I remembered how we had about 15 inches of snow and up to 20 in snow drifts. Good old times
When you say "frozen precipitation".... I'm hearing sleet and freezing rain. I'm right on the light blue-white boundary in southern TN.... We're not much for snow here.
I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We typically get measurable snowfall once every 5 years or so. If it's not measurable snow, we get freezing rain/sleet and icy roads about once every 4 years. The last measurable snowfall event we got was December 2017. That next month (January 2018), it was in the mid teens one morning with icy roads after the previous night of having freezing rain. Typically, the immediate coast only sees a couple of hard freezes per season. Some seasons, we don't even get a hard freeze.
Different story here in North Mississippi. In Oxford, it snowed twice last winter 2022... once in January (1" maybe), and again the first week of March (2"+), which took a few days to completely melt off. Also, quite a few nights of mid- to high-20's temperatures.
I love that you mentioned my city, Columbus Ohio. I do remember that April 4th snowstorm. It was a beautiful snow fall but it did melt fast. The blizzard of 1978 hit us hard here too. Love ya Ryan, keep up the good work!
Hit us hard in Toronto Canada, too. I still remember how I had to find a winter coat that could handle the wind and bitter frigid conditions. I kept that coat for 20 years, just in case in happened again. Wishing you well this winter, Karen!
Nice, I'm watching from Columbus also, well, actually well outside of town but Columbus is the local city.
I moved to Ohio last year from the west coast. I’m about an hour west of Columbus. Last winter was pretty mild, and I’ve been hearing of a harsh winter coming.
Should be a learning experience!
Good luck y’all
Yes I remember the Blizzard of 78 and the storm in April the one in April we were going to Graceland Shopping Center for dinner and they couldn't wait to get us out of there so they could close and send everybody home it was snowing so bad
Remember the winter of '95-'96? I worked at the NWS at Port Columbus then. The last snow (flurries) was about 22 April. I was on duty doing a 4-midnight. Jym Ganahl would NOT stop calling me trying to get me to call just one more 0.1 of an inch. If I would have, that would have gotten us to 54.2 inches for the season. But I didn't. 54.1 inches was it, tied for second greatest. I can still see what I imagined him to be doing... walking around WCMH with a ruler convincing himself that I was wrong.
So long ago now...
My son says the exact same thing about people stating he can be wrong so much and keep his job. So frustrating. But he loves weather… he’s been in it for a long time! And he’s right about 99% of the time. He’s good at his job…. Keep it up Ryan. I can see you love weather as much as my son!
my mom always talked about making tunnels to other houses in the “great blizzard of 78”
78's the one my mom talks about for our region. I never remember the years that are in the best snow falls because we have stuff to do now. 😂
As a kid in central NY we had a blizzard back in the mid 70's that trapped us at home for over a week. When it finally stopped, dad brought snow in to melt in the sinks, and tub. There was no place to push it to. It took days to dig out to our driveway, and the snow completely covered the house. We had snow tunnels, snow caves, and slides for weeks afterward. School was out for like two weeks, I thought my mom was going to lose her mind with 3 kids and dad at home for that long.😆
HH,we got covered in the blizzards of 1979-80.We didn't have school for a month and we had tunnels so high,you couldn't see the cars.
@@jessi9742 The winter of 77-78 was a very bad winter in southern Ohio. A lot of people were stranded in their homes for a couple of weeks. I was in Law Enforcement at the time, I had to work, but I was young and I didn't mind it.
I know Quail froze to death in southern Ohio that year. The Ohio River also froze over in places .
@@johnyoung9874 yes! We're from Indianapolis. That is exactly the storm she's talking about. I was born in 85, so I don't know that storm, but she and my aunts and older cousins always talk about frozen pipes, hoarding food, people stuck. She has pictures of the house, cars.. literally buried in snow! My cousin sledding off the house. 😂
We need a warm winter to keep energy prices down- a good year for it.
Ok Ryan. I'm pretty sure it's not about to start snowing here in southern Arizona. It's 97 degrees right now 😆. But that's no big deal, we hardly ever get snow, or rain for that matter. I still love your forecasts!💕✌
Yeah as a Floridian I'm not really sure why I'm watching this but it's interesting regardless
Same here in south Texas at the coast🤣🤣
High desert of Texas here. We had 4ft of snow here during snowmageddon. 😁
Mississippi coast here 🤣
I guess us southerners really love some Ryan Hall!
I used to live in Tucson. We had a white Christmas one year. We got over an inch, so things were properly covered. We threw snowballs.
the only weatherman I really pay attention to, always very accurate and educational.
Check out the snowstorm in the Texas panhandle in 1957. Amarillo had drifts that went to the rafters. My dad had to dig out from the house, I was born just 2 weeks before it hit (March 4). It was a mess. As for the stick, my husband and I were talking about getting one and sending in a "Nope, not yet" picture because we're 1/2 way to Galveston (15 miles from the coast) and I have seen only about 3-4 snows in the 30 years we've lived here. We actually had the first EVER white Christmas in 2004. They were making snowmen on the beach down there. But we doubt we'll have it this year.
I live in Amarillo and I am truly hoping for some above average snow fall this year. Last winter was so dry and this summer was extremely hot. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I got stuck in a blizzard while driving through Amarillo with my family back in 1992. That area is no joke during the winter.
We plan to head down south from Tennessee this winter. Since you're from Texas, where do you recommend to stay out of the winter areas? Lived in central Oklahoma all my life, so this year we wanna miss all that lol Thanks!
I remember the snow fall of 2004 it wonderful to have seen snow in the backyard of my grandma house in Galveston I was only 8 years old back then
Around 2006, we had 3 snowstorms back to back, the bank were so high that we didn't saw the houses on the other side of the road. Many people ended up stuck in their cars and we had them to stay in the municipal building used for reunion and activities. We did some cooking and provided them with blankets and the police were knocking on the door to ask us for help. It was a emergency situation. Me and my girlfriend missed work because the roads were totally blocked by abandoned cars and snow. But we did go to the center were the police was bringing people out of their cars with snowmobiles. We helped them to put the bed and bring alot of food. It was something I will never forget. We still managed to have fun with theses people. Many other families came to help with us. The next day, my girlfriend and other ladies organised a "cinema" for the kids and I helped collecting food and cook for the families. There was at least 100-150 persons. It was in a small town in rural Québec, Canada. That was the biggest storm in years. We had at least 4 metres of snow in 2 days. 1 metres is 39 inches approximately. Everyone who has a snowmobile was asked to help to pick people up from their car. I was a fun but tiresome experience.
I plow roads in the western Maine mountains where we should on average see more then 6-8 feet of snow through the winter. We've always judged how the winter's going by how many times we have to shelf snow off the tops of guardrails. Since 2018'ish we've only had to shelf once, maybe twice through the season but last winter we could see the guardrails all winter long. I've done this job for 15 years and I've seen a steady decline in the amount of snow every year and it worries me.
I don't want rain or snow at the moment, but I could benefit from a break in the heat & humidity...
Lately I noticed that people are speaking more and more without saying …umm .. well… euh.. no now it is now more and more fluently !! Feels so nice listening to you guys!! Bravo!!
I'll believe 4 ft when I see it!
50 miles west of Cleveland, Ohio here...thanks for the warning. I knew I should have picked up that snow blower at the garage sale the other day; I looked at it. Oh well.
Thanks Ryan!
I was giving the snow blower the evil eye this am.
Closed the pool today( very sad day), hoping you are right about the snow fall in my area!
Thanks for your update. Disappointed here in western appalachia MD for another warm winter. We NEED snow for our gardens and hay fields. Guess no sense in a purchase for a snow meter when it's not going to amount to much once again. :(
Love your forecasts.
Damn Ryan, the quality of this video...top notch!! I love this upgrade!!
February of 2015 in the Northeast. We got 10 feet of snow that month alone. It was insane. This winter sounds reasonable.
You are just a riot, Ryan! Hope you’re right about less snow for northeast!
The bright red thumbnail that drew me here indicated the opposite. I saw that w/the 4’ warning & was flipping.
Then no mention during the actual vid. Was the opposite...wth?
My wife, my cat and I were heading home after visiting my folks in Ohio. We were on I-81 North, a little south of Watertown, NY, and moving quite well.
A Trooper waved us off the highway near the town of Adams center. We got stuck halfway up the ramp. We had to leave the car, and some nice local people gave us a ride to the fire house. Cots we’re set up on the station floor, and we settled in for a five day stay. There were around 80 people sheltering where we were; I heard there were around 200 at the neighboring station in Adams.
While there, the men sometimes were taken out to help move snow off barn roofs, we were told some roofs caved in and killed many head of livestock. It was a very interesting experience, and I’ve been intensely interested in preparedness ever since. For anyone interested…
The kitten handled the adventure beautifully, and never saw a cot again!
What yr was that?
Feel so bad for the cattle. :/
Worse for the thousands our gov killed to keep them off our dinner tables this winter, however.
This country’s in some big time trouble. Weather being the least of it.
That's lake effect. Were used to it in new york
@@woodspirit98 Only if you’re by a lake. Buffalo gets hammered every yr w/lake effect snows.
Can happen, albeit rarely, w/ocean effect, too.
Yep Watertown and Buffalo and Oswego areas always get hit the hardest by lake effect ! I lived in Liverpool,ny most of my life and have seen some incredible amounts of snow! I live in southern IL were a teaspoon a snow is a lot so weird seeing such a difference and for school it don't take much for a snow day were I'm at now but back in ny a snow day was a rare !
@@woodspirit98 True, but this thread was about the blizzard of ‘78. It was bad for areas that don’t even get serious snow accumulations.
In Philly we haven't seen 3 feet of snow in like 10 years so idk how accurate this really is
Exactly!
Back in the early 60s, we came home from a weekend vacation to 5 feet of snow! In 2000, we had 3' at Thanksgiving, 3' at Christmas & 3' at New Years & sore backs & shoulders!
So the big snowstorm that I thought was in 88 was in 87 at Claypool hill va the snow drifted up to the roof and was the biggest snow I've ever seen. There was no light coming thru the sliding glass door. I'm so glad I seen this because this storm was an amazing event that sparked my interest in weather. It put the so called storm of the century or superstorm in 93 to shame in snow fall total here. It drifted so much I couldn't tell you an exact amount but it was around 3 to 4 feet when the 93 storm was only 2!
I live in richlands
I remember the '93 snow storm, same year the Missouri River flooded really bad. That year is seared into my brain, the snow was deep enough to carve out a series of tunnels and igloo like structures when I was 7 and lasted days. I got the idea because I had to dig myself out of my place and just started tunneling instead. Had to been more than 2' were I was.
@@chriscoleman6956 I'm sorry to hear that lol
I pray you are right, as I live in Massachusetts. I am now 74 and widowed, and things are hard enough without a lot of snow. I hate snow!
i’m looking forward to all the snowstorm livestreams (and all the pictures of peoples animals playing in the snow)
Hi Ryan, being from Syracuse NY , unless we get more than 2 feet of snow in a storm , school is open. however we are prepared for it and each Town has their own complement of snow removal equipment
I used to live in Buffalo. Usually the weather wasn’t too bad for them to keep up with except for when I got stuck in Lackawanna for Snowvember in 2014. Stuck in the house like a week 😅
Hey Ryan, could you do a video on what it would look like if all the rain that caused flooding here in KY was snow.
Just got my Y'all-o-meter! I hope to get enough snow to measure it!!! Clayton NC!!
Normally I don't like the snow and cold but I would honestly love an above average snowfall this year. I live in Kansas City MO and I'm so sick of it being hot and dry.
Me too
you can have all of my snow from illinois
I wish we would get some snow in Georgia. The most snow I ever saw here was the blizzard of 1993. Wow...it was sooo beautiful !
Agree I like when it snows here in the Atlanta area by the airport.
Did you hear everyone here in California screaming " Oh no, not another year of La Nina?" Life sucks here in California. We are dry as a bone and will stay that way.
In south central Illinois I hope you’re right and I hope we are hammered with snow this year..
As a NYer part of me is happy about this but part of me is sad. I’m happy because snow especially lots of it makes it harder to see and travel but I’m sad because sometimes the snow looks so amazing when it first falls.
I get so tired of winter when it’s all brown instead of white ☹️
As a NYer,, part of me is sad too.. Love capturing the snow scenes.. Plowing is fun too. ADK!!!
I look forward to coming back to this when I get less than a foot of snow the entire winter season this year when I'm in the "4 foot zone".
Another amazing video Ryan! Love the set up!
He opened by talking about the weekend of 4-4-87. I've lived in Fairmont, West Virginia, all my life, and remember it snowing that weekend. It was one of those heavy, wet snows. In 1950 (quite awhile before I was born), it snowed the day after Thanksgiving and amounted to five feet. I well remember the "snowpocalypse" of 1993. The brunt of it came on March 13, but as I remember, it tapered off that evening. I'm 59, and that's the most snow I remember.
In Iowa, we get more than that every year, 4ft. Is nothing, it shows up around late November, a
Or December, and doesn't melt until Feb, or March. When I was in my 20's the snow was like 10ft. To 12ft. Walls on each side of the highway
Bring it on!!! Love snow, and so tired of a brown Christmas and disappoited kids! And l can finally ski! ❄️☃️❄️
I live in Western NY snow capitol. We usually get 200 inches or more a year. The last 2 years we haven't. We get tons of lake effect. One year we got 325 inches. I am the co-op for my area.
I really need Tennessee to get a monster blizzard.
Thanks Ryan for all you and the Y'ALL SQUAD do to keep us informed 👍 💞🤗 This was a great fun video!! Your graphics and explanations are second to none!! I'm so happy to be a part of the Y'ALL SQUAD 💞🤗💞🙏🇺🇸🙏
Very well said Teresa.
@@johnsv6476 Thank you. Hope you are doing well this evening. Where are you?I'm in South Carolina in the USA.
Oh FUN! We are in the huge snowstorm zone. The kids will keep track on a chart.
I would love a Ryan Hall video that teaches the names of all the different types of clouds. I think it would be entertaining
Agreed! A Cloud-o meter!
Be nice if you remember Alaska. We actually are part of the US and are interested in our weather too.
I realize you don’t generally do Canadian weather but love your content and description of all things weather. 👍
That's because it's too damn scary to even assess! Montreal gets more snowstorms than any city on Earth in a typical winter!
Oh my Lord. Come quickly Lord Jesus 😭🙏😭
I'm not ready for summer to be over. Hopefully not too much in Missouri.
Bring the snow!
I'm not ready for summer to end either. I'm in Georgia, and I can't wait for the rain to go away. They can keep the snow up north.
Remember Branson getting hit last year? You never know.
Middle Tennessee checking in.
Last year the dogs want nuts when snow stick. This winter we’re prepared, but anticipation for the pups .
It’s really amazing how much the love the snow.
That first day we get snow pack is sooooo exciting for them,
I love the setup can't wait for a stream in it
In the 90s, i remember snow drifts that went all the way to the roof of our house, and at our school's football field fence, it covered that completely. We would walk over it. I lived in a small town in Iowa. We had huge open fields around us so the wind was intense.
1976 snow in Altamonte Spring Mall on my car on the ground and we made snowballs. this is Orlando. 2002 Snow flurries at the Kennedy Space Center I worked at the building next to that Huge NASA logo Building
Here in Southern Indiana, I have noticed the leaves are falling and have been for a week now pretty steadily. At the same time, big spiders are trying to come inside too. We live in the country so we get spiders that come in from time to time, but this year they are huge, coming in 1 or 2 in a day, and they are early. Typically, I don't see bugs trying to do this until after Halloween, and it'll usually be 1 or 2 a week. Something is definitely going on this year that just feels different. The atmosphere feels strange.
Same , we live in southern Indiana too and honestly I think we will be getting a lot of snow this year.
How big are your spiders?
Did your region go thru a drought this year?
@@billwilson3609 Yes we have. Very dry
i also live in indiana and have a finished basement and garage, and both are swamped with spiders. nothing harmful. just cobweb spiders. but i can move something and then less than 2 days later its got webs cris-crossed over it.
I live in the suburbs of Knoxville, TN. This summer I’ve seen plenty of rabbits, maybe slightly fewer squirrels than usual, plenty of possums, normal songbird and local raptor numbers. Oddly, I usually see a good number of chipmunks, but none this summer! We get occasional reports of wandering bears and coyotes. However, frogs are far fewer and fireflies are also decreased in number. Local ponds still get visits from ducks, geese and herons. Not as many wasps and hornets this summer, which was fine with me.
I loved our Christmas Day snow last year!
The Blizzard of 1996, I was Driving a Tractor trailer, Tanker at that. It started at 2:00 am and snowed for 2 days and 3 nights ! We got more than 3 feet and 65 mile an hour wind gust & 35 sustain winds. It was slot for South Jersey & Delawar . I went to work and my car was covered & I couldn't even see the top of it. Had to take the company truck home! WoW !
The Blizzard of 78. I was living in Milford Indiana. The weather came on and the weather man said it would snow over 36 inches overnight. I laughed and said, He was full of Sh*#!. He was because it snowed 47 inches. I remember opening the front door and the glass storm door was snow clear to the top. I thought we were living in a Rod Serlings Twilight Zone episode.
Played on a snow plow stuck on the highway. Sled onthe highway.
Excited for winter here in Boston
So in my state (Maryland) I actually think this winter is gonna be harsher. I’ve noticed a bunch of caterpillars on the sidewalks, it’s a below average hurricane season, it’s a La Niña year, and we’re due for a very big snow. This all usually indicates a harsh winter.
I'll be back! Ryan ya'll. Will be looking forward to relying on your forecast this winter. Loved your info last year! God bless
Anyone else worried / think we'll get severe weather events this winter like we did last year ?
We were caked in for a couple hours with our blizzard of 6" snow last 1/16/22. Then it melted 😝
I am for sure
nope.
defintely, and with high hopes we need the water !
I live 50 miles from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, and we get slammed! I hate snow! Lol
Thanks for the info. I'm looking at that 24 to 36 . Glad it's not 36 to 48. Blessings to all ❤
I read there’s a polar vortex forming already over the North Pole. Here’s hoping for snow town in Dallas again this year!
Blizzard of 78. Western Michigan. I was 12 or 13. Wow! I had to crawl out the window of our storm door and start shoveling so my dad could get out of the house and help me shovel a path out to the road. Awesome storm.😎😎😎
It’s been sporadic af in central Missouri. We went like 3 solid years of maybe a total of 6-12 for a whole season. Then this last season was well above 24 we had a few snows all stretched out over a few weeks too, like 6-8 this week… melts off…. 6-8 the following week… the weather swung up and down a lot
I live on the gulf coast we got. One. Inch of snow five years ago I make a trip every winter to either missouri or sometimes further north indiana or ohio or green bay to see. Snow
@@michaelsuzio4364 we have had a FEW YEARS where it absolutely shits on us… we get like a few 10-12 inch snows a year and one year prolly 10 years ago.. we got 28 inches in a day.. I’ve heard Montana and North Dakota have gotten like 3-4 feet… I would love to see that in person
@@jeffcon123 pensacola beach florida. Had. A. Dusting of. A. Inch of. Ice during the polar bear dip in 2018 or 2019 last year it. Was 75. Degrees
I'm in Missouri and I am excited for a snowy winter! We rarely get good snows.
La Nina usually means much more precip in the pac NW. Judging by how active the spiders have been up here I am leaning towards a very wet fall/winter around Seattle.
Let it SNOW
Let it SNOW
Let it SNOW
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!CB
A little bummed out about the La Nina situation.. as I live down in San Antonio and love snow but we don't get much, especially during La Nina years
This so sucks for us in California. Dry as a bone and dry we will stay.
April 4,1987…my sister’s wedding in downtown Columbus Ohio at 6:30 p.m. I-70 shut down both ways…the guests that came were stuck! Memories!
I'm located in northern Ohio's secondary sno belt where the average is 5 to 6 feet, and I routinely travel to the east side of Cleveland (the primary sno belt) where the average jumps to 6 to 8 feet. I would be happy if my zip code only received 4 feet this winter
Oklahoma City here, please please please let us get a snowy, wet winter!
I actually really hope for an unseasonably warm winter. The energy prices over here in Europe have shot through the roof and a cold winter would definitely do it for a lot of people who can't pay their bills. And even if you can pay the bill, the money has to come from somewhere which you can't spend on other things anymore so that has consequences too. Really hope we sail through the winter with 50f to 60f temperatures.
💯
I pray that you have warm winter as well. I am really upset thinking about all of the poor people that will not be able to pay their heating
Maybe your leaders shouldn't have made your countries reliant on a hostile regime for its energy and then laughed at the weird orange man when he told them that.
Don't get me wrong, I do hope that this winter goes by without mass reports of people frozen to death in their own homes. Nobody deserves to die because of stupid decisions by stupid politicians but current energy problems is the result of bad leadership that was knowingly voted for. Places like Germany, who has the 6th largest reserve of coal in the world, try and "go green" by shutting down their coal and nuclear plants only to then go and buy gas from a regime that has been openly hostile to them for years (because you know, long as you don't produce the natural gas yourself, you can still use it and be "green").
Then when a certain man points out the folly of such an endeavor, he gets laughed at. The nuclear is especially idiotic since it's just as a green and far more efficient than wind, solar, or hydro. Even France, which has perfected the art of mass nuclear energy, is trying to downturn its usage. 75% of its energy comes from nuclear power with only 13 metric tons of long lived nuclear waste *per year* and that waste is the best, safest, and most environmentally friendly contain nuclear waste in the world. But no, they'd rather throw it away for unreliable sources of energy.
Of course, it's not helped that our current president is also actively trying to make us dependent on hostile regimes for our energy needs. If he and his cohorts wanted to, we could easily supply Europe with all the energy it needs while keeping ourselves independent too. But no, they just want to copy the European plan, which has obviously worked out so well.
It's just a bad deal all around. I wish we lived in a world like Star Trek where no one lacked for anything. Sadly, we don't.
@@chefevilee9566 Selfish lmao.
@@randomlyentertaining8287 yeah .. unfortunately I couldn't agree more with you. And it's not only the current leaders who are to blame but probably a whole bunch of 'em going back decades.
Loved that funky music at the beginning of the video.
I rebuketh that 4 feet of snow in Ohio!!!
One of the things I like about current times is that instead of watching the tv morning news to see if your school or work place is closed for winter weather we can now get a text or call in for an update. Some things of the past is better, but this is much better. And, I think schools, at least here in the South, will call it sooner than in the past.
Living in mass and hearing Ryan say we could be below average in stow this year just made my day lol. Hope he’s right
I want consistently below freezing temps like last year that way big bodies of water actually freeze and theres more to explore walking on lakes
That southern twang on “quadruple dipper La Niña?!” at 3:41 tho lol I’m here for it
Love the information! I follow the animal and insect behaviors, along with the trees. So far I've had an early mouse and spider visit about two weeks ago...squirrels have been a little busy too.
Just sayin'...🙂
I live in south central Michigan, and I have a gut feeling we are going to get a lot of snow this year. It's time.
I’m in Ohio and I’m praying for NO snow or very very little.
Dream on…but I don’t prayer will do it!! 🤣
@@john-or9cf Gotta have Faith! I’m in the upper part and there’s been years where we haven’t gotten that much, but have gotten extreme cold

Love your show! I also love the fact that you use data from past snow patterns. I also watch the science about the weakening of our Magnetosphere during this excursionreversal event. The weaker magnetospher plays a great role in keeping the Jet Stream in tight rotation patterns. The the weakening of the mag. we see the Jet Stream wandering further out of it's tight pattern. Leading to "snow" events in the South as it reaches further down the continent. It is a difficult to predict occurance. Keep up the great work.
Fun to listen to. You brought up 1987 snow records, I'm a child of the 1950's. I remember a snow on Easter Sunday around 1957. Messed with my sleeveless outfit & Easter sandals. My Daddy forbid me to wear them because of the snow. I rebelled & walked to Sunday services. I arrived very wet & very cold, but felt proud to be in my pretty clothes. I got very, very punished for disobeying. You should check it out.
I like the potential of getting 3 to 4 feet of snow this upcoming Winter (as long as it's not just one big storm and only bits of snow for the remainder of Winter). I live in New Jersey...Hackettstown in Warren County, to be exact. But, one thing most people overlooks is that our Winters have grown much milder/warmer than those I remember from my childhood. Yes, there was the occasional warm fluke Winter during my childhood, but most others were very cold and snowy.
I like those colder and snowier Winters from the aptly-named #GoodOldDays. I do *NOT* like these Spring-like Winters (with only occasional shots of cold air and snow) we've been getting in recent years. I've noticed that when we do get snow, it's often wet snow and it melts very quickly...often less than 24 hours...because of a surge of warmer temperatures that quickly follow the snow. Sometimes, it changes to sleet and/or freezing rain. I don't mind sleet so much, but I *HATE* (with a very strong passion) freezing rain! I wish that form of precipitation never existed! I'm also not fond of wet snow because it's nearly as dangerous as freezing rain.
On the other hand, I don't want crippling blizzards or Nor'Easters (this region is notorious for getting them) because of the amount of damage and destruction they can bring. What I want are nice, quiet, peaceful snowstorms that bring *DRY* snow and little, if any wind. I want it to be very cold since it would favor drier snow than milder temperatures would. Ideally, temperatures between 5°F and 15°F would be best for dry snow, but I'll take colder temperatures, if possible (down to about -20°F...that's my limit).
I lived in Andover twp until July when I moved to Tennessee. The winters have been cold enough but have been starting late and staying longer.
sup neighbor - from morris county
Snow!!!!!!!!!!! Bring it to NJ!! Need a January 1996 repeat. It has been too long
I enjoy your content Ryan I have tuned into many live streams of severe weather coverage. Located in Tulsa Ok. an I've gotta say I don't like your outlook on snow fall for my area.. But that's because I can't stand the cold nor snow nor the people who don't know how to drive in the snow here lol a lot of people can't even drive when its raining! I just ordered a Y'all - 0 - Meter so if anything falls this year you can expect some pics from Tulsa Ok. from myself!
Hey Okie! Lived in Broken Arrow six years before we started traveling this May. We're in Tennessee now and leaving in November. Plan to head towards Arizona, but we'll see. Make sure you have them trees trimmed for them late ice storms lol Stay safe!
Holy cow Mexico is getting so much snow this year!
I think it's a 100% chance of NO snow in my backyard this winter. I might see hail like last year, but LA never gets snow this low.
You don't remember 1962? It snowed in downtown L.A. 2007 west L.A. had a dusting of snow.
@@hshalom9113 i was born in 1975 so no i don't remember 1962...
@@hshalom9113 in 2007 i was living in silverlake but i don't remember it snowing either so...
Ok, fine, but how about Pacific hurricanes and typhoons?
@@marktwain368 that was a nice break in the heat wave but i wanted more rain
The snowstorm of 1967 caught everyone off guard, what good memories.
My parents had pics I thought was in 68 but it may have been 67 when we lived in Chicago were my dad has removed the snow from the roof of his car and all you see is humps of snow up and down the street were cars are covered underneath
