La Nina returns, snowy second half, record snowfall projected

Youngsters' Weather Blog project a record breaking winter in terms of snowfall this winter

Snow continued to pile up yesterday and today from the lake effect and my area is now well above the winter average. Reports from NOAA suggest we are now in a moderate Nina, which dumped heavy snowfall after heavy snowfall second half of winter as last year.

With the first half of winter WELL above normal in the snow department, almost twice as much snow as this time last year. A second half similar to last year almost guarantee a record breaker. Well this happen? it is starting to look like a sure thing.

Cold air will dominate the rest of January, a storm or two may be on the way. Which could dump another addictional 20-30cm to Southern Ontario before the end of the month.

There may be a brief thaw at the beginning of Feb, as a ridge appears in the east. This could allow for some major melting/flodding in our region. Followed by a possible flash freeze.

However the reminder of the winter looks snowy to say the least, we might get hit by constant Colarado lows, which always dump 10-20cm with higher amounts possible if remaining on the snowy side.

There is already more than 50cm on the ground in a lot of regions in Southern Ontario. They aren't gonna melt any time soon. Even when it does, more snow is surely on the way.

These two winters really spoiled us.
