Ended here.

12.3. Horrific winter Edited to add i am over it already. Got plant sprouting and tree pruning going on. Ready for the torch.

for those keeping score at home, here are all of the moving pieces involved with this one.

Congrats guys Take alot of pictures and videos. Love seeing places with alot of snow .

Snowing in the Bronx.

How much did you get the whole winter? I’m at close to 18” which is right at the median (few inches below mean).

DCA picked up 0.1" today after an early morning high of 78°. Yesterday's high there was 86°.

Congrats man. Below 50% of climo here again. Insane drought out this way.

Had some flurries about an hour ago. Certainly chilly out with a led grey overcast overhead but brightening to the north

Congrats to those that got snow. We didn't again out here. On to next years disaster.

Dude, after what you went through you not only picked a great storm to chase again but you did it right (except for one thing). It sounds like you (and from your posts during) were patient and waited for them/it to come to you which is always the best way IMO. ESPECIALLY in the Lakes/OH Valley where we get more 60 mph screaming F3's than most places. Your one mistake was getting on 65. NEVER GET ON 65 when theres bad weather lol. 65 will kill you and I'm serious. It's a Semi UFC ring as far as I'm concerned. It's bad enough on a sunny day. I seldom chase anymore because about 10 years ago my buddy and I were about killed when a Honda Pilot with Harbor Freight flashing lights plastered on it and 3 Iphones hanging out the windows going 90 mph blew through a 4 way stop sign and missed us by inches. Our chase turned from the storm to them and when we caught them we put the fear of God into them. They said they were "pros" and I told them so is this baseball bat. After that nope. You have more chances of getting killed by another chaser than a storm nowadays. Study, prep, pick, sit, wait. Thats my method now if I do lol. Thanx for the vid and hope you exorcised some demons

Sun came up. And so did the temps. Sunny 45.8 degrees. Winds at 13 with gusts to 22.

Snow stopped, getting brighter...

It's been snowing moderately for the last hour or so with an official slushy dusting (0.1") on the colder surfaces now at 34F. Probably another hour of snow looking at the radar. Pretty to watch, as always.

Afternoon AFD from LWX on the threat KEY MESSAGE 3...Another strong cold front will arrive early next week, bringing strong winds and the potential for severe thunderstorms. A warm front will lift toward the area Sunday ahead of a low pressure system moving into the Great Lakes. Most of the day should remain dry, but showers will likely move into the area Sunday night. Increasing southeast to south winds will keep temperatures above normal. A strong cold front associated with a powerful low pressure across the western Great Lks will cross the area Monday. Better moisture recovery is expected ahead of this front compared to the one Friday night to result in numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms. Model trends during the past 24 hrs have shown lower pressure values locally across the area, stronger wind speeds aloft, and better destabilization resulting in an increasing threat for severe weather. The storm mode looks mostly linear this time as opposed to supercells, but the magnitude of the 850-500 mb winds is 20-30 kt stronger than it was yesterday (Wednesday). While the kinematics look a lot stronger with this next system, there is still a high degree of uncertainty with the thermodynamic environment and the exact timing of the frontal passage with recent trends showing an earlier frontal passage prior to peak diurnal heating. Regardless of severe weather, strong winds will accompany this front both in the pre-frontal and post-frontal environment.

About to end, see you next winter snow, maybe.

Welp, I just saw my first flock of Canadian geese heading north, so I guess that’s a wrap on winter.

Temperature down to 33F here and snowing pretty good. Non-paved surfaces have a slushy coating. It is nearly 50 degrees colder now compared to this time yesterday!

Mid Atlantic has the best rates where its accumulating in some areas.

50 degrees colder than this time yesterday lol

Nice burst of snow here. Not accumulating however.

0.0 second snow band jumped past like the first Too many busts imby grading winter A-

Day four slight risk issued for mid south region and I think ark la tex region for Sunday also day five for mid Atlantic east coast for Monday .

Light to moderate snow now as the back edge approaches. Took this shot about an hour ago.
