Euro AI is consistent with the idea of coastal development on Sunday. Definitely the solution PHL-BOS is rooting for. Don’t know how much snow for our area. Probably 1-3”ish?

AIFS is a borderline SECS. TPV is more amped

Just noticed this graphic from CLE for the weekend lake effect.

Night and day. Just got back to Lowell from up north. Left there and it was 18F and just started snowing. Got to Lowell and it was milky sun and 40F. Expecting 6-8" up there but the raiin might wash away the 2" of snow we got remaining here in Lowell. It just seems like this is going to be a NNE winter. At least the first half. Heading out to Steamboat for a week. Barely enough snow to ski out there. They've only gotten 35" since they've opened and ain't getting anything over the next week. Sucks.

Yes

yeah is uncle ok?

This would verify a lot of "starts cold, warms up" predictions.

Flakes are flying in Lebanon presently .

Even if this occurs, why cant it change in 5 years? I forgot the MET who stated it, however the MET on this forum stated that the warm pool is sliding east slowly which should change things.

Way to be TBlizz. Then Goose and Wiz crush hopes with it ain’t happening. Here’s to hoping they are both wrong.

Too bad its 15 days away.

might be 6" depending on ratios in DC

Legit lol

whoa

It's basically the CAMs and RAP against the globals, with the GFS the farthest northeast of these. Wouldn't be surprised at a compromise in which the better f-gen banding and accum axis is indeed farther southwest, while farther north and east we get several hours of pixies accumulating to an inch or two. Could certainly be wrong but my current lean is away from a complete whiff with the first system. Too soon to write off Saturday for adjustments back (a decent % of 06z EPS members still had solid snow up into parts of the metro).

Rjay last posted on November 30th so yes. Uncle hasn't posted in 3 years (i assume you mean @uncle W)

The rich get richer. And the poor get poorer. And the happy get happier. And the sad get sadder.

Yeah so for me to take any real value of this having meteorological significance I need to see statistical correlating variables, which is why I've done a lot of work around correlations and partial correlations involving ENSO states, rate of change involving the SOI, etc and found minimal forecast/predictability value for snowfall locally. I've been burned by threshold/relational things in the past (SAI being chief among them) and have since really been hesitant on overfitting data to find some grain of predictability to it.

Thank you. Seems logical. .

I mean...if we can get the ao/nao domain to start latching on to this idea....I know...way out in la la land.

Much better.

I think another thing is that we all have both recency bias and the feeling that things were better and grander in our younger years - whether it’s winters, pop music, sports teams, movies, etc. .
