It’s pretty mild dude. Accept the mud, it’s the only mud you got.

With the possibility of a decent rain event, it can’t be a bad thing that the days leading up to it are above normal so as to get as much water into the soil.

Nice that you've been able to get out some, Yeah, Not much qpf when we warm sector before FROPA so should minimize any damage there, That SLP after that forms at the base of the trough and moves along the coast if that happens should end uo a net gain up here, I'm heading up to the Northern Maine mountains Thursday morning next week to get the first ride of the season in.

Thank you! Being a snow hound/weather nerd was obviously a lot different when I was growing up. I mostly relied on TV/radio forecasts, NOAA weather radio and watching Weather World. Even as a kid I was keen in picking up on clues as to whether or not it was time to get excited. Elliott Abrams was my go-to radio guy, Weather World was the authority on TV. I'm such a geek, I even remember the names of the NOAA radio guys I listened to 45 years ago...Bob Kurl was my favorite - "at 9pm, NOAA weather radar indicates a rapidly expanding area of snow...the snow extends from central PA down into Central VA, and is moving slowly to the northeast at 10mph." At that, I would be literally dancing through the house. That was the only "visual" that I had. On school nights, I would tuck my little transistor radio in bed with me and once my parents were asleep I would turn that baby on and listen to overnight updates on WSBA (AccuWeather) while getting out of bed multiple times and turning on the floodlight to see if snow had arrived yet. I was like this until...well, when I was...60. Wait. That's how old I am now.

Next week is normal . Maybe one day of 40’s You and a few others had days of 50’s and furnace lol . Busted

DFW made it to 80*F yesterday, and yet that was still a few degrees shy of the record high (83*F).

Avergae highs for DFW this time of year are in the mid 50s.

Looks quite good bro. Why is that light bar on your Lynx crooked(maybe just the picture?) Nice machines.

So enabling for deniers... ... particularly, deniers all carry one particular almost necessary trait in order to be denying, and that's the inability ( perhaps a psychological limitation/aptitude - ) to simultaneously be aware of what they are looking at, with respect to keeping the big picture in mind. Their processing disconnects those two, and of course when limited by that state of awareness...that defaults their reason preferentially to just what is perceivable via their personal senses - in the construction/impression of reality. This is a long winded to way of describing the 'pin-head' nimrod with head up fucking asshole. In this case above, the cold over N/A is just perfect to jam head deep up myopic butt holes, and claim that is the reality. I think it is uneven evolution. I think there is a gene, a very necessary one ... for contemplation and objective reasoning that includes a broader dimension that what is merely available via the biologic sight and sound. If people don't have this, they are prone to denial - in anything. The rest is just immoral douchery... ( the preceding is tongue-in-cheek cynicism that somehow smacks as having some real value )

This event is very close to being a whopper for I-85 north. It’s a classic look for a major winter storm in the upper southeast. We just need a bit more help with digging and tilt. It would be really nice if our source region for cold wasn’t baking right now.

Heading to Quebec for 3 days this weekend which usually guarantees snow at the house, got probably 200 miles on, but 140 being trail maintenance either on a skandic or my tundra, but did have a nice 60 mile ride with the wife Sunday from the house. If we pick up 4-5 inches through Sunday we'll be starting to roll here, looks like minor QPF Friday into Saturday with the warmup.

Any rain with this weekend storm system will be extremely beneficial. Severe drought has exploded in area across the southeast and now 1/3 of NC (up from less than 1% last week) is in the severe drought category. Western areas and mountains should do well but central piedmont and coastal plain look to whiff, again

up to 41f already.

It’s a shame we get a high building in and can’t get more than a flip to snow at the end because that is a good SWfE track, airmass just sucks of course. Maybe all snow LCI to LEW?

Fight!

Congrats on 55 tomorrow evening. And probably again next week.

12z Nam looks to get a weak secondary going off the SE coast of LI which helps back the winds out of the NNE bringing some colder air down to the coast to keep things mainly frozen up here, The other models are starting to trend in that same direction as well.

You get these warmer temps and man it feels good. Fantasy looks showing up in the models and staying in the fantasy range. There’s something nice about all this.

Like I said. Crazy. In the entire 152-year climate record, the most for Detroit was 94.9" in 2013-14 & the least 12.9" in 1936-37, one of the dustbowl winters.

I'll say...I have zero clue how anyone forecasts in Anchorage or Alaska in general Anchorage is an insane market and often times can get screwed in the snowfall department because they get downsloped but they can also get wind winds because the winds can funnel. The airport can get like 3" of snow and a few miles away they're pulling off 20". But there are times anchorage can get absolutely dumped on too.

No 50’s no 60’s. All busts on the torch in New England. Hilarious

Yay, Windham and Salem, NH will get snow and ice, while it transitions to rain 200 feet north of my door steps.

All 3 metro airports were BN for the first week of January, even with a double digit AN day yesterday. RIC is above normal for the month because yesterday was so warm.

Lol. We talk real seasons. But all kidding aside, It’s a personal thing..And it’s all good. I always go/went by the real season. It snows and can be cold in March some years..the snow is counted on the season. I do a lot of sledding in March, So it just Works better in my mind.

clearly colder solution comparing the prior 4 cycles ... 66 to 72 hours is going over to snow in the pretty cinema ... almost down to the pike. there's been steadily more commitment to a secondary, albeit weak.
