All Activity

Longer. A lot of the public has gotten used to blowtorches and 25% climo snow since this crap started in 2018-19. Now we’re getting a classic NE winter and folks are freaking out.

Separate topic… What does everybody think about starting a new discussion beginning in November of this year? Next year is supposed to be even more active possibly with El Niño it may be nice to start a new one it hasn't been started since 2023.

Snow was freezer burned last week.

I've been talking about this for a few days now. Friday and Saturday are going to be interesting weather days. Strong cold front moves through with snow showers setting up in parts of Richmond, that could leave an inch of snow Then on Saturday we could see wind gusts as much as 50 mph in RVA and up to 70 mph as you go south and east to the beaches. Hampton Roads, NN, Va Beach etc. etc. Windchill values could be below zero on Saturday. Not being talked about enough imo on the news etc, but could have power outages on Saturday in the daytime unfortunately.

Snowing in Oneida. Very uncomfortable outside. It’s sticking.

Yep, the snow melt we’ve had is largely from the sun at a slightly higher angle every day.

Cracked freezing today for the first time in 13 days altho not by much (hi was 34). I must say it feels like it's about 60 out lol. Amazing how the body adjusts to temps.

Snowy snowier snowiest

^I thought that was CAPE or SRH at first glance and did a sharp double take

This is where being the only board pervert comes in handy.

Has anyone ever studied the relationship between Nor'easters that go out to sea and the sudden weight gain of ducks? I had to get rid of a lot of bread that I purchased before this past weekend's storm.

Nam looks good. Still need to fine tune dong placement.

The brief return to freezing temperatures hasn't been all that impressive. From the point where we went below freezing at 7pm on January 23, we were consecutively below freezing for 234 hours ending at 12:45 PM on Monday. Through now, there have been 9.5 hours out of the past 293 that have been at or above freezing with a maximum temperature of 34° : Monday 2/2 Above freezing from 12:45 - 4:50 pm (4 hours 5 minutes) - max temp 34° Tuesday 2/3 Above freezing 10:15 to 11:00am and 1:30 - 1:45 pm (1 hour total) - max temp 33° Today 2/4 Above freezing 11:10am - 3:30 pm (4 hours 20 minutes total) - max temp 34° Current temperature is 31.6° (3:58pm)

The EPS hasn't been amazing this season IMO. I'll take a blend of everything at 10 days and not even focus on one model suite.

I'm kind of surprised how awful the eps snow mean is for next weekend. A little deflating

Dumping snow here in Blowing Rock now Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk

We 18z Nam

Duster incoming tomorrow. Followed by a DAB+ Friday. Lake effect looks paltry before another DAB+ Sunday. Stacking DABs

10 days haha Here we go again. Time to reel in another big one

I kind of wish the models waited until Day 4 to show something. I was doing so good with sleep and not watching 0z models as they came out. Now they are sucking me in...

The wind reversal prospects are dropping off quickly. I’m starting to think there actually may not end up not being a major SSWE and an SPV split like @so_whats_happening has been musing….

32F/Sunny, expected low 5F Nockamixon Feb 1st (Facebook) t

yea... were not torching

KEY MESSAGE 1... An Alberta Clipper will track through the Great Lakes and bring another round of snow to the region Friday morning into early Saturday. In general, forecast values across the lowlands average around 2.5 inches, with localized areas measuring as high as 4 inches. Peak times for snow accumulation still look to be between 10am and 5pm, which will likely impact the Friday evening commute. There is very little uncertainty about the snow type; it is expected to be light, fluffy snow, with snow-liquid ratios ranging from 18:1 to 21:1. Higher amounts are likely in the ridges with enhanced rate due to upsloping. 3 to 6 inches are currently expected with locally higher amounts possible. Blizzard conditions are also possible given the character of the snow and eventual wind gusts up to 45mph. In coordination with surrounding offices, a Winter Storm Watch was issued for the ridges of WV and PA. In the evening, an advancing cold front may result in another period of increased snow rates, and possibly snow squalls. Be prepared for rapidly crashing temperatures into the single digits, gusty winds, and low visibility if snow squalls develop.
