It still hasn't gotten that cold this month

I don’t like Harbaugh. Lamar is having a rough season. Monken hasn’t inspired any confidence. But if we’re going to talk about the Ravens biggest problems, it starts and ends in the trenches. They have no pass rush(and they haven’t for YEARS, aside from the one year Mike Macdonald worked magic) and the offensive line is awful.

We’re getting so badly skunked lately. It was so obvious to me driving from Chicago home Wednesday and Thursday. Snow otg with good coverage for 95+% of the trip. Hit bare ground inside 495.

It’s 51 out there right now

I suspect our last complete decade in Western Berks was one of the snowiest on record....nothing has changed just cycles. Like I said above imagine going 23 years with below normal snowfall like Chesco did from the 1930's to 1950's....

As stated above it seems like we don’t see the 2-4 or 3-6” snowfalls that’s used to be the norm. Anymore it’s the 1-3” to slop variety, Heck out here in Western Berks County we only had one Warning criteria storm 6”+ that we just made the 6” last year. I also understand each winter has its differences but being in our Location and proximity’s to the coast can help or hurt our snow chances. Not sure what I’m trying to get at here but my 59 years of being in this location something changed.

Lamar is awful. Monken is awful. And most of all Harbaugh is awful. Just blow it the fuck up lol.

Good. Rest of your posts will disappear. See ya in march. fyi he was talking about the temps.

They are awful. Period. Embarrassing.

The Bengals-Bills game is the perfect example of why the NFL should ban dome stadiums.

I took a trip to Farmville VA for a snow chase down here and it reminded me of when did the same up there for upslope events. Thankfully my Forester handles like a champ in southern snow events. It was a beautiful little event. I definitely need to correctly time a VT visit this winter.

I want a big East Coast storm! lol. I'd also be happy to dink and dunk my way to average. You're right, though. Winters do suck anymore. Especially for us to the south and east of Philly. It's like the 09-10 winter was the exclamation point on good winters. No más.

Too bad we can’t get snow like Buffalo

Sometimes this hobby requires such huffing.....

This team freaking sucks

Apparently 8-4 Iowa state is opting out of Bowl game, being fine $500,000 by Big 12. Apparently players voted No as majority of them are entering transfer portal. Sent from my SM-X210 using Tapatalk

When I’ve contacted LWX before they said it was a glitch in their system because we’re both in the same spot, but that my reports were still in their system. I think the bigger issue has been why they still keep accepting these questionable ‘Dept. of Highways’ reports to begin with. That started about two years ago and several people on here have been calling out reports from State Highway that looked incorrect. It sounds like much of this has been automated though.

Hopefully we don't come in warmer then forecast like the previous event. I mean Raleigh is only expecting a trace but I don't feel like driving to Farmville again.

Just started snowing. Stake settled back down to 8”. What a great start to winter! The skiing is fantastic, got to ski my first glad already. Some years you have to wait another month for that…

17z hrrr did some digging, hopefully 18z follows suit

Nice write up by Justin Berk: “Is there a case to be made for snow next weekend? These are just notes of what I’m watching this week… Timing of upper level energy can be off by a day when looking a full week away. This past Friday event initially looked like an afternoon and night thing… but it ended up mostly in the morning…. And lingering into the next day with upper level support. My purpose here is the highlight that the modeling is NOT perfect. It’s all about timing and I subscribe to the fact this polar jet has features we are not seeing handled well on the models. Not seeing much snow now, could change if the alignment changes…. And it may from what I saw in the early morning plots. The chaotic atmosphere is imperfectly predicted farther out in time. 1. The big push of the Polar Vortex will arrive. 2. Temps Saturday afternoon likely to stay in the 20s to low 30s. Tracking ENERGY in the jet stream with Vorticity 5-7 days away is imperfect. Again, the timing can be off by a a few hours or a day, and that can make or break phasing - which is needed for a storm to form. 3. Vorticity Saturday morning from the EPS, which is an ensemble blend of global models. This brings the main vort max across Maryland and then just cold. 4. Vorticity Saturday morning on the European AI model looks similar, but more active. There is more energy in the pipeline. THEN… 5. Vorticity Sunday night brings the base of the polar jet across Maryland. Will it snow? 6. Saturday Afternoon ECMWF has a clipper to our north, with a chance for flurries while light snow in the mountains and to our north. The timing is off and not letting it phase. If this ends up a little south or the timing changes, I believe there’s a chance for more to develop. 7. Sunday afternoon the ECMWF AI model brings that wave in later and spins up as it hits the coast. 8. Sunday Night the GFS is later with the energy AND closest with the attempt to phase. Just seeing the variations next weekend show me there is a lot left to be understood. So expect the outlook to change. It’s NOT a promise that it will snow, but a pledge that next weekend’s weather will be cold, but the rest we don’t fully know. Faith in the Flakes”

Didn't wake up to the advisories, but there they are! Should be an interesting morning. Nowcasting will be required!

@Hvwardcan you give us some hopium for a lee side trough?
