February 2006 would like to have a word...

HRRR

might help the psycho babble if folks finally accept this as the new paradigm

Temperature down to 31.8 here.

I mean basically this is what we are seeing if you look towards Eastern Aussie land,not saying we will torch but its not gonna get that cold,cold air is gonna be trapped in Canada,Upper Plains

I have seen so much convoluted crap in these long range models last week or so.- it is so sickening. These LR models are so undependable when the southern jetstream gets cutoff and whisked away along the carolina coast for snow making in our region. All I am saying is you all better hope we get some deep moisture storms coming from the gulf or the atlantic, or we are going to be in one hell of a drought come spring. Right now I see no significant precip in the next 2-3 weeks. These clippers are bone dry. Less then . 25 inch of any type of precip is absolutely worthless when the dewpoints are in the single digits and below zero and the winds are at 25 mph after the clipper goes by. Its a dam desert out there. Snow will sublimate and rain will evaporate within hours. My humidifier is running like gangbusters right now and its not even mid-January. We really need the gulf moisture and it it just cannot get to our neck of the woods because the barrage of bone dry clippers keep it at bay below Memphis Tn. I have never seen such a relentless pattern in my 50 years of studying weather for the eastern US. It will take a very deep low pressure sitting in the gulf and spinning shortwaves toward until the pattern breaks. When this will form I have no idea but frankly the only outcome we are all going to see is fricking utility bills that will be doubled or tripled from last year with all of these cloudy, dreary cold days under 32 degrees. My november bill nearly doubled because this dam dry and cloudy weather pattern already. Snow weenies, lets hope for a good and really an original four corners low to reform in the gulf and head up the spine of the appalachians at the same time the SE ridge is retreating, especially around Christmas. Thats the only chance of a good storm I see worth tracking in December. Anything else is a shot in the dark right now as everything and I mean everything has to line up perfectly to see a 6+ in snow event before Christmas. Signed debbie downer LMAO

Close up view of 18z Euro Kuchera

18z Euro was big time for yall and near us... the kuchera i think was higher than the 10:1

I’ve dipped below 33. But unconvinced there will be any actual moisture at this point. Same as last year.

Very possible it doesn't get above freezing tomorrow. Currently, the NWS forecast high is 39. If it's 33-32, might get 3 inches.

HRRR keeps getting worse. We may not get more than a passing shower

Fair enough. I am rooting for everyone. Gonna need more brown liquor.

NNE is crushing it though

Wake, Johnston, Durham Co schools closed now.

I missed most of this one, but it was very cold so the entire 2” or so stuck to the pavement making it very slippery. Previous systems were wetter on the pavement and mostly slush rather than ice.

Heard some reports that Jay Peak was a bit wind affected following the squalls on Thursday. That fierce northwest flow deposited a ton of snow downwind into what is usually the deepest locale in New England. I was confident depths would be good, and a thorough exploration on Saturday found conditions that exceeded my expectations. The whole zone is wide open for the taking, though some danger still lurks with a smattering of open drainages poking through. Up high, tight tunnels transition into spacious gladed gullies choked with powder. Bushwacking and bootpacking into a zone famous for it's felonious past yielded a skied off chowder experience. When the forest closes back in on the scar, prior traffic disappears into an extensive menu of deep lines that open up among powder plastered conifers and hardwoods. I've never been to Japan, but I imagine this is as close as the East Coast can get visually. Hard to believe it was December 6th South of I-89, it is a different world. MRG managed to get the single going, but rock skis are an absolute necessity. If you're willing to take a few shots to your skis, conditions were actually pretty ripper up high with tons of funky low tide features. Chute was especially sporty, with a double (or triple) drop that was teed up right under the lift.

I'm guessing mid 20's for the ATL lows.

33.3

That big warm blob near Alaska is nuts. And AK has had a swarm of earthquakes the past week. That may kill the Iditarod if they can't build up enough snowpack by March! Looks like a huge lake-effect thing going on by Erie, the rest of NW PA & SW NY! Bottomed out at 26 this morning but it did get up to 42 as a high, where it later clouded up. Currently 34 with 29 dp.

This has got to be the stupidest thing Harbaugh has done in his ENTIRE tenure here. Letting a dude play on the basis on him being "your guy" like an adopted son, and the heck to how detrimental he is to that line...is stubbornness beyond belief.

18z GFS not far from something good next Sunday/Monday.

Some times, These little critters bite.
