Anyone have the sleet map from the CMC?

I've seen two solar eclipses within the path of totality, do those count? August 21, 2017 (Simpsonville, SC) April 8, 2024 (Toledo, OH - sorry for the shit quality)

We average somewhere around 5” qpf between December and Jan and probably sitting about at half of that and into February.

Logan is 29 with a seabreeze lol.

Did uncle have a liquid lunch?

Impressive seeing how cold Long Island sound is. Keeping those shoreline temps down. Used to only seeing this as a springtime phenomenon.

Climo wise we have another 4 weeks. Once you get to about 3/10 or so it gets difficult.

The drought rolls on, persistence prevails.

First GEFS run in 4 runs to put some snow back in WNC. Not much but definitely had some members colder and further south.

My new favorite sky is the stunning sky you get up on the Tug in the snowbelt. As a Marylander my entire life it's like nothing I've experienced here. You get this deep blue arctic sky with this extreme contrast to black, orenge, purple, and pink where the snow bands streak across the sky. It reminded me of low top thunderstorms training across an arctic blue sky. There's also a fuzzy look from the wind carrying flakes out into the blue sky. During the evening the sunsets reminded me of something I experienced in Hawaii. It's unique and very beautiful.

Paleocene's Sky Stuff Rankings (I like the I guess) 1) Extremely low AQI / high pressure days with zero cloud cover and deep blue sky, particularly from July - October (but also other months) 2) Sunny days in February - March when the sun angle starts increasing but the leaves aren't out yet, and everything is lit very brightly in profile by the still angled rays of the sun, especially houses/buildings/trees. See paintings by Edward Hopper (my prof pic). Shadows are pronounced. 3) Obligatory SN+ 4) When it absolutely rains buckets and sheets of rain and it's like we're in south florida

I simply could not be less enthused for 33 and rain

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, we do need precipation but that storm was anything but high ratio for me, expect for the start of it, which was very fluffy. I wound up with 13.1" of snow and 1.80" of liquid.

I cleared an untouched area to access a trailer, and it was pure powder top to bottom.

I honestly hope tonight underperforms.....it's just at a nightmare of a time. Just get me a big un or get out of my life winter, thanks.

I dunno, setup sucks.

How much of the snow pack was lost to sublimation vs melting?

It’s coming . Not a big un.. but snow Sunday

33.4° first time above freezing in 18 days, right as some precip is coming, gonna struggle here unless we get some decent rates for a spell, not expecting more than a half inch here honestly shocked if that falls.

Damn. That sucks. Lexi reached out afterwards to me. She’s Super nice. Still not sure if that’s a user sock. He seems to have multiple personalities.

I got like an inch of rain that one day after new years. then 1.5" of snow and pellet precip. but yeah other than that dry as a bone

That's 150 miles N of 0z let's get a trend going

Since this sorta stuff often ends up in this thread I'll put it here too

While we all wait for the Euro I made a fun thread that reminds us why we actually do this hobby! Please add your own contrabutions!
