That is close to something much better on the Euro

It def was, but kind of seemed like noise. Same general area was highlighted. It seemed a bit more potent, but def a touch SE

Nice for dc/balt, the shaft for Mitch, psu and me

I'm going to trust that others are with me in this rant...but if not, then ignore or delete the post, and call me crazy/unhinged. How do we get 15" of snow in a 7-day period, then it's down to bare patches a few days later with only 18 hours of above-freezing temps? It's absolutely ridiculous, and wipes out any earlier thoughts on "a great start to winter". If the snow doesn't stay on the ground, it's as though it never happened. Even prior to the short thaw yesterday, the depth was down to 9" IMBY, which is a whole other issue...as the depth went down by 6" with sub-freezing temps. Now it's down to 3" of slush. I realize there can be some compaction and a bit of melting over time, and when you have 18 hours with temps 34-38, but the sun never came out...which normally would help. It's not like it hit 50F with dews in the 40s. There should be 10" of depth now, not 3"...and it's even worse by ORD and the more urbanized areas. Why is it so ******* difficult to preserve snow around here? Do soil temps really make that much of a difference, combined with a half-day with dews over 32F? How do you lose 15" of snow with one day above freezing, during the time of year when sun angle is the lowest? It's a like a million things need to go right to get snow in the first place, and then a million more things need to go right to keep it on the ground. One tiny thing goes wrong, and it all vanishes. If yesterday's "storm" would have tracked 75 miles further south (which is just a chaotic blip in the grand scheme of things), none of this would be happening. One tiny annoying random event should not destroy 2 weeks of a good pattern, but it does. Same thing happened with GHD I in Feb. 2011. 22" of depth on 2/5/11, and it was essentially all gone 10 days later. If that were March, no problem...but that shouldn't happen in early-mid Feb, well within the winter season on the calendar. This looked like a guaranteed White Christmas a few days ago, now it's almost a guaranteed brown Christmas...just a complete 180 degree turnaround.

to me, looked a touch SE compared to 6z. But still decent

12z Euro

Euro trying

Good trends at 12z

Unloading in Allentown, and it's up to 44 degrees. Finally a day where nothing's frozen on the trailer!

Hope he’s ok; was just wondering where he was to bring balance to the force. .

Yeah, somewhat similar to the Canadian. Probably a 3-6” deal but was very close to being a bit bigger, especially eastern and se mass

if you get the TPV that amped, you can def get 6" of snowfall on 0.4" liquid. the fluff factor is usually strong with these systems

Randy only knows about Long Pump.

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.

AI Euro

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.
