What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind chill watch went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Hastings, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind chill watch went out at Feb 12, 11:25 PM CST, 4 hours 32 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 12, 11:25 PM CST, 4 hours 32 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Hastings NE
1125 PM CST Fri Feb 12 2021
.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 413 PM CST Fri Feb 12 2021
Snow:
Snow is ongoing across the majority of forecast area as of this
issuance...mainly from Hwy 36 in KS northward with the most
intense snow occurring in central Nebraska. Snow is expected to
persist through the evening, but should wane somewhat in the late
evening and early overnight hours as the first PV anomaly moves
across the area. Then a secondary PV anomaly will move in right on
its tails with a quick secondary round of snow towards morning,
ending Saturday morning. In all this first snowfall...today and
tonight should bring about 2 to 4 inches of snow, with some
isolated higher amounts. The ongoing winter weather advisory looks
to remain on track and I will not be making any adjustments to it.
There will be a short break during the day Saturday as we await
the main trough moving in from the 4 corners region. Snow is
expected to begin again Saturday night from west to east. As this
system approaches and moves across the area, another wave of
arctic air will delve southward shunting the bulk of the
precipitation southward during the day Sunday. This secondary
system on Saturday night into Sunday will be a bigger system for
areas to our south...with an additional 2 to 4 inches possible.
Another Winter Weather Advisory is likely, but will wait until
this current one has expired.
Cold and Wind Chills:
The cold will persist and get worse...but that's not a new
message. Highs today have struggled...and many areas won't see
above zero. Saturday should be slightly warmer...but we are
talking a few degrees. Sunday through Tuesday will be down right
bitter. Highs below zero again, lows well below zero (-15 to -20)
and wind chill values will be at or below advisory criteria for
part of each day through Wednesday likely with wind chill warning
(30 below zero) expected for parts of the area for Monday and
Tuesday mornings. Remain vigilant if you must be outside and be
prepared if you travel and something should happen in these bitter
temps/wind chills.
Wednesday - Friday:
An active pattern aloft continues, but the forecast remains dry
from Wednesday on. Temperatures are finally starting to warm up
towards the end of the work week...with some 20s forecasted by
Thursday and *maybe* 30s by Friday...we shall see with the thick
snowcover we have.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 06Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS through 06Z Sunday)
Issued at 1119 PM CST Fri Feb 12 2021
Will continue to see the chance for some light snow/flurries
across the area through the rest of the overnight hours, but not
expected to cause significant issues or add much snow. Additional
snow chances will start working their way back in during the final
few hours of this period. Models continue to suggest that while
conditions are currently VFR, lowering ceilings will return, so am
on the pessimistic side of things. Overall winds will remain light
throughout the period and generally northeasterly.
&&
.CLIMATE...
Issued at 350 AM CST Fri Feb 12 2021
Several record cold temperature records could be broken over the
next several days week as an Arctic airmass maintains its icy grip
across the local area. A few of the most likely daily
records to be potentially threatened at Grand Island and Hastings
airports (our two primary climate data sites) are outlined below:
-- Grand Island, NE: (temperature records date back to 1895)
February 13th: Forecast High: 2 Record Cold Max: 4 (1936)
February 15th: Forecast Low: -19 Record Low: -18 (1936)
February 16th: Forecast Low: -19 Record Low: -17 (1900)
-- Hastings, NE: (temperature records date back to 1907)
February 12th: Forecast High: 0 Record Cold Max: 6 (1936)
February 13th: Forecast Low: -6 Record Low: -7 (1936)
Forecast High: 2 Record Cold Max: 9 (1949)
February 14th: Forecast High: -2 Record Cold Max: 2 (1909)
February 15th: Forecast Low: -19 Record Low: -12 (1909)
Forecast High: -5 Record Cold Max: -5 (1936)
February 16th: Forecast Low: -20 Record Low: -13 (1979)
Forecast High: 3 Record Cold Max: 0 (1979)
For both Grand Island and Hastings:
In addition to the various potential daily records above, the
average WEEKLY temperature (average of daily highs/lows) from Feb.
8-15 is on track for this to be the OVERALL-COLDEST week since at
least 1989, and possibly since 1983!
