22 year cycles per Taylor. If you think back to 2000, we had a run of 3 warmer early starts to winter.
So per Rusty at WOWT, sounds like most of the snow in Omaha area will be later Friday. Trying to decide if go over to Ames early Friday afternoon for the game? Is it maybe arriving a little later than previously thought?
With tomorrow's snow, that's probably only a difference of approximately 0.40" of rain, so now as big as you'd think.
And that's without considering any placement issues or ratio changes.
I'd have to look up the snow stats, but there may be something to it because I do know Iowa's severe, and particularly tornado season has been starting later recently.
Had the boat on the lake April 3rd last year.
I’m not an expert, but I actually think you’ll be fine. Your timing will put you in some snow, but you’re heading in the right direction (away from the heavy stuff).
I don't know if the seasons have "shifted" temperature wise or not, it just seems like it's been rare to get much, if any snow in December the last several years, and we've been getting at least one big one in March. We've even had snow recently in early April as well.
Shifted Des Moines right into the sweet spot....so good.......
Snow in December is really kind of rare, I think. The thought of it being a “snowy” part of the year is based on weather patterns 200+ years ago. Charles Dickens is to blame.
My house is right in a small 15 - 18” area according to Earl. Bring it on, ya bastage.
