They did the M thing for several weeks regarding the back to back days in early February with dustings. Then said “F it” and went with a T both days

same as it ever was

I've sensed cautious optimism from you lately. I still think it's strange given the moving pieces we haven't really seen any large swings in guidance. I guess modeling isn't that terrible then
-
I think impacts will likely be closer to rush hour for our sub. Regardless, we're a tiny bit of instability away from a truly big time event. Have a feeling Carolinas will go big, however.

The good news is it will be windy no matter what since we haven't seen enough wind lately.

Wrapping up this winter: 1/25 - 2.5” of mostly sleet 1/31 - 7” of champagne powder 2/5 - 1” of icing on the cake to freshen up my champagne powder Season total: 10.5” Notable: Several cold periods with rare staying power. I went about 3 weeks with some sort of ice/snow coverage on the ground. Complaints? Few. Wish Christmas would’ve been cold but it felt like a winter of old. Final grade: A+ This winter reminded me so much of when I was a kid. Multiple storms, including one good slop fest, a true snow and sneak-up event that was minor. It’s hard to be mad at this past season. I really hope this is the start of a better long term pattern, and even if it’s not, it was good to see we’re capable of going above average in snow/sleet accumulation not entirely dependent on one event.

Not a fan of Cappucci in general but yeah seems many of the folks on social media are buzzing about this. I remain reserved but it definitely has some bite potential.

as usual name of the game is complex wave interactions (especially so with this) and baroclinic zone largely irrelevant imo just be glad we're hanging onto good consensus for the rapid deepening in our backyard which can often hold surprises

2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion
NorthArlington101 replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
Cappucci and his team there ideally would know better that it's a Day 4 outlook and that it doesn't correspond to a risk level at that range... but yeah. I wouldn't be shocked to see some school impacts Monday given a four day warning timeline is pretty big for a severe event.- 152 replies

Looks like BWI changed it to an M, meaning they’re acknowledging that the data is missing for that day. I hope they figure something out eventually. I think they should split the difference between the nearest 1.0 and 1.4 and go with 1.2”. Sure it won’t be perfect but at the most they’ll be off by a few tenths. Better than going down in history as a false zero.

Wind is getting pretty nasty.

No winter either. March is an in between month these days-time to fast forward to April. 42 and cloudy is boring

Wind is crazy right now. We sure do wind very well around here...

E PA/NJ/DE Spring 2026 Obs/Discussion
RedSky replied to PhiEaglesfan712's topic in Philadelphia Region
correct that was a textbook onion snow in south and east areas -
Monday loos like it could be warm ahead of the front southerly flow - enough sun could push 70s.
-
Any thoughts on whether the snowfall in the Upper Midwest overnight and this morning could tighten up the baroclinic zone and help the cold push a bit further south than currently modeled? Or any type of impact of the new snow cover on the various moving pieces in general? I guess we'll see it in the 18z runs, if there's any truth to this. I know it's weenie rule #500, but why not.

it's been spring for the past 12 days

I used to log off for winter too but there's more things going on in Summer that I realized so I hang around all year, not as invested in winter but more than I used too.

Some areas have fared better than others. The escarpment area and western piedmont is still struggling to get caught up while the SW mountains are doing better.

Not commenting on the meteorology, but after the storm in January 1996 my garage in the Basking Ridge area was completely covered under a drift from the driveway up over the roof. Opening one of the the 3 bay garage doors accomplished exactly nothing lol. We couldn't believe it, my husband memorialized in on video with our camcorder. That had to be at least a 10 foot drift and I doubt my garage was unique.

I expect all of my downspouts to be gone when I get home later.
