40/70 Benchmark

Not saying frigid...just more wintry than consensus...or at least more wintry than January.

Sign me up for that. 'Bout time...

I agree RE February. I think I mixed Jan and Feb up like I did in 2021.

Eventually I'm sure it will begin to impact it more, but in the mean time...I think the impact is overstated bc much of the increase in temperature is at night. The greenhouse gasses are inhibiting the escape of heat during traditional cooling more than anything else. This is why much of those wild positive temp departures are achieved while we sleep under starry skies. Not ALL of it...we are seeing more insanely warm day time highs, but I think the negative impact of that on snowfall is being offset my the increase in mositure...for now.

Yea, that "barks" of global warming augmenting snowfall....it requires qualitative analysis, but we haven't seen a period that dire in the 30 plus years since. In fact, global warming maybe enhancing snowfall so quickly that the 30 year climo period doesn't fully capture it. -end sarcasm-

It's not just the young ones, apparently.

Everyone does realize that a significant portion of SNE hasn't done badly in terms of snowfall over the past several years, right? That stretch from the late 80s into the early 90s was worse on a regional scale.

I see the usual suspects are always looking to attribute climate change at least excuse imaginable at each and every opportunity. Makes some very bright people look stupid.

GEM and EURO lock in step....EURO hair further north. Plenty of time for this to go back to shit.

Something like this is loooong overdue.

Wow....EURO really squashes that event next Friday and pounds my area. Much stronger confluence..

You def have a burgeoning ICON fetish lol

I wonder how @WarmNoseHaterfeels about that?

I agree with most of this, but that was a very bad break when we failed with that block.

What are your thoughts on the longer term? Any hope?

He seems to be feeling frisky, so I like your chances, but I'll take a rain check on that show

Seems like a focus on rd 2 is more of a ME, NH and ne MA deal...rd 1 is more cape and se MA.

Eh...take the snow, dude.

I'd honestly rather get 3" and Taunton nothing, than get 4" and Taunton 8".

I'd take that over 06z.

I have been hearing this is similar to a strong el nino pattern...which I get due to the overwhelming and mild Pacific jet, but its actually worse IMO....because at least in a super el nino, any modicum or cold that we get doesn't dump west and bleed east in modified fashion over a 10 day period.

It seems like the pattern always looks good until we get to that one OP run at like day 6 that manufactures a way to cut...everyone engages in their own internal self-talk therapy session and walks away convinced that its just an OP run doing OP run things...then over the next 2 days, everything trends towards said solution like a shit seeking torpedo. PV dips to San Diego...rinse, repeat.

I think I'd rather watch this occluding red headed step child, than the Red Sox.

I keep hearing that, but the ass on the OPs has been verifying lol

Everything has been trying for everybody for 2 months.
