  1. What we are left with is analyzing soundings all day like antisocial, virgin internet sleuths in search of that elusive stray snow shower on xmas....which is great for the 12 municipalities that get it, meanwhile, back at the ranch.... the other 95% of us are met with mother nature's hairy, grizzled rear-end under the mistletoe.
  2. I don't think its going to torch anytime soon....later in January, yes.....but that is a good 3 or so weeks off. I'm just tired of the parade of paraplegic SWs that are castrated by the RNA en route to the NE. "Oh, but there are so many of them...one will pop out of that chair and walk again"......tic toc, tic, toc
  3. If we get past NY still chasing our proverbial tails, then I'm going to start to sour on this in a hurry lol
  4. Looks slightly cooler than average for the next week or so around here.
  5. Gun to head, though, one of these works out for most of us before the New Year....
  6. Yea, don't get me wrong...I'm not punting through NYE....but its just apparent that there is a great deal of volatility and the overall pattern, while improving, is not ideal....so I would adjust expectations accordingly until a plowable event is on your door step.
  7. It is not in terms of ONI, which is what I think those people are referring to. I know I am. But I agree that this event is definitely more coupled and is obviously a more prominent driver than last year's la nina.
  8. So far, so good....my neighbor across the street still has cover, and his property sun bathes all day. I am just over the line, though...legit 2 miles down the road to join the highway, and its just patches.....nothing once you hit 495 in I93.
  9. I don't think 1-3" is gone with one day of 35-40 at this time of year, especially if dews are low. Hell, my inch of crust from Saturday survived low 40s yesterday. The sun is so weak....
  10. At this point, I think the course of least regret is to not plan on anything, and if something becomes imminent, then rejoice.
  11. Yea...two different things, though...this is why snow is more preferable in December. But the actual snowfall itself is better in March, unfortunately.
  12. Tip has posted about this before and you're right..snowfall is shifting later.
  13. All else being equal, I would prefer December snow...but it isn't equal.
  14. Aside from SSTs....there is a reason that cutters are more frequent in December...there is a seasonal lag. The mean baroclinic zone has yet to settle southward enough on average.
  15. I agree that December snows are certainly more festive, but March snow events are just better...especially anywhere remotely close to the ocean. But even regionally...I feel there are more high-end March events than there are December events.
