"Because their bored" "He said a typical January was coming...LOL" - Do you see why I joke?<br /><br />Thanks for the numbers, they're interesting. I just thought it felt like a typical January so far. Your numbers are about a 60/40 difference, so that seems "typical" enough for me. I know we won't get up to average for snow. (Fine by me!)<br /><br />Time to focus on the east coast for a while. I'll check back here when something interesting happens. :/Neilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3483614767822693875.post-75188808340806991402016-01-18T20:43:55.331-06:002016-01-18T20:43:55.331-06:00@Neil, Since you like to attack anonymous any and ...@Neil, Since you like to attack anonymous any and all, why don't you come with a little perspective yourself. If your going to make a claim have some reliable information or else you sound like an anonymous with a name. This January has not been typical, including today 7 of 18 January days have been below average and 8 of the 18 nights have been below average so if you do the math 11 days have been above average and 10 nights have been above average, more then half in both instances. Let me guess you would like to know the averages for January, the highs range from 23-25 and lows range from 7-8 for the entire month. As for snow only 2.6" has been recorded at MSP with nothing higher then a 20% of snow for the rest of this week, which leaves only one week to gain average in that department. As for temps they climb back over average by Saturday and stay near or above average the rest of the month. So in ending it is NOT a typical January as you may think, how is that for some perspective.

Maybe instead of complaining you could use this boring stretch of weather to learn weather forecasting so that when the next storm rolls around (if ever) you can pitch in and then we can harp on you when you're wrong. :)<br /><br />DISCLAIMER: Not to call you anons uneducated again... don't want to hurt your feelings.<br /><br />I don't recall Randy's exact prediction, but outside of snowfall this feels like a pretty typical January to me. We average 12" (correct me if I'm wrong) in a typical January so it can really only take one system to catch up there.<br /><br />Sadly, looks like all the fun is happening out east in the near future.
