Please don't ask why, lol

I'd say that was an overall positive step. I mean we've got no choice but to play the amped game...so not necessarily a bad thing? Just my inexperienced .02

We really don't have to, do we?

I daresay this is one of the few cases where it actually could. Still a ways to go, of course...but this would be the scenario.

Not to mention...there really aren't any other threats to track, lol, so it's not like there will be any confusion over what's we're talking about

Now a first glance it appears to be either amped and it hits us or less amped/more progressive and it gets suppressed...but you're saying there's another scenario where it's just kinda amped (and not enough) for snow?

Yeah and we don't care if the shovel you have is busted up and hanging off the handle...if anybody gets one you're walkin' the snowboard!

Yeah we'll have to see if things are converging into two camps progressive/weak/south, or amped and dynamic. I'll happily dice roll with the ladder

ICON also tried to bring it up the coast at the end of it's 18z run

Nope! Usually by now the weekend threat is completely off the table, lol

That a bit more of a capture than last run? Looked like it

Certainly you must've been hibernating far away from the SE ridge this year...lol

Yeah it's Tuesday and it hasn't gone poof yet? We golden

Like a stronger version of the ICON, basically

See what you done did?

Something to consider: What if we all were standing out in a cold, raw rain...and for whatever reason somebody felt the need to say "It's raining!" every 5 minutes...as if we didn't know that already? Lol I mean...if it was painfully obvious to everybody else, would it still be valuable to hear somebody say that every 5 mins? Sure, they'd be 100% correct that it's raining...but after awhile...would an already miserable crowd not be justified and saying "Yes, we know!"?

Huh...wonky distribution of totals this time, lol You have to wonder if other models pick up on this, it could be a rate-dependent thing.

And those blockbuster years...I'm guessing it would have to involve another mechanism to overcome possible temp issues? Because it doesn't seem like track is enough anymore, tbh I'm trying to envision exactly how snow happens in these conditions.

If so...man that was quick! I mean just 4 years ago at least NYC could do better (and even Boston). It feels like what may have been a gradual decline just went off a dang cliff the last 3 years! I mean prior to 2020 I don't remember perfect track middle of winter rainstorms and cutter after ccutter. Yeah we had our normal fails from Miller Bs, unlucky timing (i.e. Dec 2018) and other things...but not like this. Of course my view could be skewed from not knowing anything about tracking until 2014 or so, but...this feels awfully sharp to me.

Here's what I'm wondering...Have the tides already turned even for NE of us? I mean they've rained on setups they should snow on too. I asked if their climo would become what ours used to be...but if the coast is already warm this year...hasn't it already happened? I mean latitude hasn't been helping anybody up there (not sure where Boston is snow-wise) I'm trying to figure out how much is this season and how much may be permanent...line is getting a bit blurry... P.S. You and your "ya's"...lol

This winter even fantasy snow hasn't broken our way...so even with this run we're already further than we have been

And this time at my expense of course...for no reason whatsoever...Tryin' do better but people keep throwin' my misdeeds in my face even when I do something right... @psuhoffman This is why I overreacted to Ji a while ago--on here I always gotta be on the defensive because of stuff like this.

I don't know...might not be enough lols But that technology is really something...no wonder professors and others are worried about it! I mean it's up there passing law exams for crying out loud, lol

Ah I see...so I'm completely incapable of saying anything insightful, smh But ya know, this shows respect is earned. I won't be better in the eyes of many on here until I sustain my change in posting habits over time. Then again...I shouldn't care what random people think either. Can't please everybody.

Man the next time we actually get a snowstorm, we're gonna be so jaded going in we won't believe it even if it's a classic Miller A with enough cold and consistent model runs of a crushing 2 Days away, lol
