Anonymous Coward User ID: 16845676 United States 01/12/2013 11:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Consumers in the Valley and nationwide can expect a bump in the prices of lettuce and other winter crops as a result of a four-night freeze moving through Arizona. It will be nearly impossible to save all the crops, say farmers and agricultural experts. Lettuce and leafy vegetables will be hardest hit. Root crops, such as carrots, beets and radishes, will be affected, as will broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage. Citrus also is likely to take a hit. It will be more a question of quality than survival, said Kurt nolte, a University of Arizona agricultural expert in Yuma, who says lettuce growers are well-prepared for cold snaps. Less prepared are Valley residents, who will be facing freezing temperatures through Sunday night. They may have to protect landscape and garden plants by covering them with sheets or blankets. Much of the state, including Yuma, La Paz and Maricopa counties, is under a freeze warning through the weekend. Pinal, Pima and Santa Cruz counties have freeze watches in place.

Not that cold compared to the rest of the country but when you live in paradise and it's this cold it fucking sucks.

Captain Spaulding User ID: 31993847 United States 01/12/2013 12:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | its probably going to snow im malibu and topanga on sunday night! that's only happened once in my life. i cant wait to see it again! Quoting: .:*Buttercup*:. THAT'S got to look cool (no pun). I lived in Santa Monica for 15 years and was just there last month. Then in Santa Barbara. Better watch those roads through the canyons. Besides being treacherous on a good day (some of them) when it's wet it's worse and icy, oh man. Combine that with inexperienced snow drivers, you better be in your Hummer. I moving back to the Morro/Pismo area. Santa Barbara's great, and every couple of years the top of the foothills get a blanket of snow. I miss the west side of LA. But, for my business, Morro's the most sensible and I can't wait to get out of this boring desert NW of Phoenix. Once you've lived in those areas on the coast, not much compares. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30111446 United States 01/12/2013 12:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Its been below freezing here in Washington state, for the last 3-4 days, the only time it warms up is when direct sunlight comes up. What make me think snow is coming too is they Chemtrailed pretty heavily here yesterday. I know they have been testing my area for a week or so now, because I am in a convergence zone, (basically a large valley in between two larger ridge lines) Last week they were only doing north to south trails, and that brought an insane ammount of rain, and wind. Well like I said its been below freezing for at 3 days nows, the ground is good and frozen now, Yesterday they didnt just chemtrail us north to south, but also east to west too. I think the snows gonna hit alot of us hard in the near future! SNOWMAGEDEN!!! |

Saturday, January 12, 2013New Model Forecasts Drop Polar Vortex Into Central US By Andrew at 9:58 AM The latest GFS model forecast has the polar vortex itself - the motherlode of the Arctic - dropping well into the Great Lakes in about 10-14 days. The image above shows 500 millibar heights for January 23rd. That big purple spot in the Great Lakes shows extremely low heights across the Great Lakes. There is only one system that can create such a big synoptic area of such low 500mb heights, and that is the polar vortex. This is essentially 1985, but less amplified. Daytime HIGHS would reach in the negative double digits for cities like the Quad Cities IA, Chicago IL, just to name a few. Now, before you get excited, know that this is the first run the GFS has shown this, essentially Patient Zero. If we want to see this scenario actually have a chance of verifying, we need to see this same forecast output be shown again for the next week to even have a CHANCE in my book. While this is all good fun and excitement, you have to balance out just what the chances of this happening are. The polar vortex will drop south, the big question is how far south. Obviously the GFS thinks its best to fly south and bring winter with it. UPDATE at 10:00 AM CT: The overnight 0z ECMWF model agreed with the ECMWF in dropping the polar vortex south into the Great Lakes in a very surprising consensus between the two global models: Andrew [link to theweathercentre.blogspot.de] |
