ICON fell off this run. 0z starting of fine. Knew it was gonna be different with how that sw in the south west held together

The 0z ICON looks nothing like the 12z. It shifted away from a "miller A" type evolution towards model consensus of a positively tilted trof and a weak offshore SLP.

Isn't the more likely explanation that the snowfall totals were underdone and only given as change in depth?

Recently the ice covered branches have been leaning over the upper mountain study plot… catching snow and generally infringing on the 360 degree opening in the forest canopy. Would be nice to melt the ZR… makes skiing through the woods easier too.

I live right around the corner. I can confirm this is a thing.

Slightly colder run again but moving too fast would mitigate

Going from 42" to 6" in 48 hours would be quite a feat, though I guess we saw similar after that Dec 2020 time period in CNE to E.NY. But this is presumably a pack that is dense enough to see no settling at all. That stuff would take an absolutely substantial energy to melt that fast, even with 2" of rain. Obviously some wild unlikely things in that snow depth listing.

The dense fog here is the worst I’ve seen anywhere in years and it’s only 9:43 PM!

Kicking myself for not hitting 2017 harder in my December composite....would have mitigated missing on the magnitude of the cold.

Send me your 1% dusting. We're in really bad shape around here. I'll take it.

Almost 60 with mid 50 dews. Could easily be 75 degrees colder right now here in mid January.

I mean, even if it were cold enough for snow, it's still not a favorable track for most. So it makes no any how...

Couple nice booms

Pacific trough says what up, b1tches.....

I remember being out in Stony Brook a few days after this storm. While I thought I got crushed at home, when I got out there it was like 150% of what I'd gotten, just crazy. And that was a day or two afterwards. Some crazy gradients, right?

@GaWxLarry, it has that El Niño look because of the Pacific airmass....that is what I tried to capture in my January composite....pretty similar look with months like January 2006 and 2002 in there.

Over 50? Yes it is..

Yet BOX tossed my March 2018 measurement....asses.

Nice line of storms hitting from the southwest. Tornado warning in Shelby County. Winds are getting after it right now here

29.5° as of 9 PM

Can't help but recall this shtick

Was hoping we’d hit 60 in Chicagoland. It’s gonna be close. .

Is that a technical term?? Lol
