The GFS brings us PDIII

Yeah I’ve had my eye on the PD weekend for a while. Looks like a big hit incoming on the GFS. ETA: GFS taken verbatim is a PDIII

Miami is just a short flight away.

Bye bye Colts

Let the GFS dream of giving the South what the real world gave us in February 2010.

In long range GFS world, North Carolina is the new Jay Peak.

I was one of those kids back in the day. Sledding would be a disaster, but ice skating might work.

ORH is already near 50 to date. My part of town is a bit less but still up there. I think 80-90" is in reach.

If this is anything like Feb 2007, then I imagine the glacier as a slippery sheet of ice that you can slide on.

A very enticing setup possible around mid-month (h/t to psuhoffman in the mid-Atlantic forum). We've got a classic west-based -NAO but also a -PNA and trough over much of the Rockies and Plains, which can keep things from getting too suppressed and possibly bring a big one up the coast. I'd keep a close eye on this window.

Hey that looks like Worcester

I vaguely remember that cold snap, but missing the triple phaser ruined it for me.

Do you remember February 2007? It had a very similar situation to this. I was a lot younger but I remember around 5" of snow/sleet compacted and it was very hard to shovel, and the ground became a slippery sheet of ice, and was also followed by a long stretch of cold. As I recall, it basically had the impact of a 10-15" snowstorm. This latest one seemed a bit bigger but similar.

I'm about to head to MD early this coming week and so I'll have a chance to see this glacier for myself.

Yeah I was just gonna say, this is a textbook example of a blizzard. I don’t know why they’re hesitating.
