CAPE

Yeah I love this perpetual snow shower thing. Pretty rare here. Defo feels like caa upslope flow in the highlands.

I pretty much went the same way for here. It has worked out pretty well. LOL at run after run having the backside so juiced up here.. CMC and Euro were the biggest offenders, but GFS and the mesos had their moments too.

Not much happening here on the west side of Easton. Some very light snow. Radar has looked pretty good over my yard since I left. Might head home early and go for a hike.

lol I am very familiar with failure modes over here. There are plenty. This type of pattern historically provides the best outcomes for the coastal plain, so I will always take my chances.

Here is mine. These HL blocking patterns usually require some time and patience. Some of us have done better than others with the latter lol. We are finally seeing it begin to payoff now. Over the next 10 days we should see multiple storm chances with legit cold air in place. The pattern doesn't get much better than what we now see depicted on guidance- well maybe if it were a Nino. And we are in our prime climo window for cold and snow. The bar should be pretty high. If we fail here, it will probably be because of pure bad luck.

Just cleaned off the car. Right around an inch. That gets me to a bit over 4" for the event. Hopefully can nickel and dime my way to another inch today. Back to pixie dust now. Temp at 30. Jealous of that nice streamer over in the metros. Enjoy.

From Mount Holly- Generally expect precipitation to mostly come in the form of light snow, potentially showery in nature, with snowfall intensities limited by both the weak sources of ascent and the increasingly long and continental trajectories of low-lvl parcels (due to the backing of the flow). That being said would not be surprised to see a decent amount of locations "nickle and dime" themselves another 1-2 inches of accumulation when all is said and done today as duration partially makes up for the weak intensities. At the very least the light snow and breezy NNW winds should maintain the wintry ambiance which will be appreciated by snow lovers. Yes, we do like this sort of thing.

There is interaction/phasing in both cases, but on the 12z run the southern energy was more amped/further south and stayed separate until much later/closer to the east coast.

That is not the typical great lakes low lol. That is a muther of a daughter vortex dropping down. It is cold ahead of it, and super cold behind it.

Wow the radar looks good over there. Now much snow have you picked up?

Must have had a nice band or 2 go through overnight. Looks like about 3/4" of fresh snow. Trees look gorgeous. Snowing lightly now.

Flakes have gone from submicroscopic to microscopic. Progress!

Initial cold front comes through on Friday, and at least on the Euro, Sat looks pretty damn cold. Have to see exactly how it plays out and what the timing is, but this does not appear to be situation where we are trying to score with multiple days of 40s and 50s leading in, and, dat block doe.

At least it appears we will have some legit cold to work with, and all of us on the coastal plain know that is the number one ingredient for snow.

Its sort of stationary. At least a few places are getting dumped on. Been getting some heavy pixie dust here for the past hour tho.

At least we are getting a pixie dust flizzard. Probably 1/16 of an inch so far.

Good thing, because that blob of lift is weakening lol. Look at the subsidence working in ahead of it on radar. Drink up!

Very light snow falling here and 30 degrees. Nice blob of heavier stuff rotating in from the NE. Lets see if it can hold together this time.

@JakkelWx Incoming(if it doesn't die again)

It crapped on Wed the 10th too. That is outside the scope of this thread though.

Where is Ji to tell us how HH GFS shit the bed for SB Sunday?

Lets see if this next blob forming to my NE can do anything.

The band that collapsed on my doorstep reformed to the south. You stole my snow!
