  1. Oh man, forgot about that one for a second. Oddly, that storm was irritating to me. Got dumped on overnight and then dripped during the day and went from about a foot of snow down to a few inches. Meanwhile, I think PSU stayed colder and it kept snowing there all afternoon and he got like 20+.
  2. I don't really remember anything individually about 2013-2014. I just remember it being the most amazing, true winter from a wall-to-wall standpoint. Every single little wave seemed to hit us and either dump as much, if not more, than the forecasted amount, and it was just freezing cold the entire way. It's what I'd imagine it would be like to live in some place like Chicago or Minneapolis. And then 2014-2015 seemed like a repeat, except it was for only the second half of winter. I'd definitely take 2009-2010 over it, but I think 2013-2014 might be my second favorite winter I've ever experienced.
  3. I would like to say that I will take one for the team and am willing to deal with the Ji disappointing winter of 2009-2010 this year and until the end of time.
  4. Does it? Have we ever gotten a good storm with a low pressure tracking into the Great Lakes before it redevelops off the coast? That's just way too far north.
  5. Is it really giving us a better chance at the rare big dog or is it just increasing how much of a dumping we get in our rare big dogs?
  6. Very interesting that, at least for December, it seems like a PNA+ is the most important feature for a significant storm and the chance of a storm. I guess because we need the cold air more in December than later in the winter?
  7. It seems like the patterns also usually end up slightly delayed, or even once it flips, it takes awhile before it's our turn.
  8. Is the pattern really showing big dog looks before mid December though? It seems like it would actually be mid December or so for when the NAO might relax and we get a shot at something big? Dare I say 2009?
  9. Surprised it got that warm. Thought it was a lock we would beat it by at least a couple of degrees. The current setup at BWI probably impacted it.
  10. Straining looking for flakes here. Getting dark and precip won’t be heavy so going to be hard to tell either way. Looks awesome up in Westminster.
  11. Damn, nothing here. I was outside during lunch and had just a couple raindrops.
  12. GFS for the win? It seems the soaking it advertised from last night through later today has materialized. Glad we are finally getting some rain. We desperately needed a soaking. I will admit it was really nasty at our soccer technical training last night. Mid 40's with steady rain, somewhat heavy at times, and a nasty little breeze. Had to have felt like high 30's.
  13. I thought they cancelled their season months ago.
  14. NAM has a nasty looking line go through. HRRR looks like some showers maybe.
  15. I don’t know what’s going on but my RadarScope radar isn’t showing any lightning strikes at all.
  16. I'm heading to Myrtle Saturday for vacation so I cut the grass yesterday. I actually hope it doesn't rain too much while I'm gone so the grass isn't too high and I don't have to cut it the minute I get back.

    Winter 2022-23

    I can certainly throw in the towel on the upcoming winter if next winter will be a blockbuster.
  18. I'm amazed at how I keep missing out on any rain. Didn't even get a drop from that line yesterday. Just the distant rumbles of thunder after it passed by and started to intensify a bit. Nothing yet today, either, and radar is not very promising.

    Winter 2022-23

    Our, or at least mine and some others problem, is that we had that hot stretch where we got so spoiled. 2009-2010 is the GOAT of all winters and it's not close. But 2010-2011 had a fun storm, 2013-2014 was the most wall-to-wall winter I can ever remember experiencing, 2014-2015 was like a poor man's version of that, and then 2015-2016 had the biggest snowstorm ever for some of us. We are paying the price for that hot stretch now.
  20. Yeah I could really use the rain. Was looking like a pretty wet week and now not so much. Strange they issued a watch box for this.
  21. It has pretty clearly made a difference in both temps and snowfall reports. Of course, BWI has always had issues reporting snowfall, but not to the degree of DCA.
  22. Not really seeing the flooding potential on the NAM or HRRR. Seems like things are pretty progressive.
  23. Looks like that storm heading for DC may end up clipping me now.
  24. Looks like the NAM had the right idea with the split. Seemed like it might fill in some with that appendage that was hanging down around Frederick but it has shrunk a bit and gone north.
  25. Wow, what a bust up this way. Seems like overall it wasn't a bust, just models not having the right location and timing for the heavy stuff. Was significantly more south and moved in and out more quickly than expected.
