Dang, it hailed here in the city too? Around what time?

What in the world? Ya know, something told me they were gonna come back...lol (but I turned it off because I had to do a couple things!). Just watched the highlights...that was truly clutch! Could this team finally be the one that can make a deep run?...

Was thinking something along those lines...lol That we may have to follow the yellow brine road to find some snow!

Do you notice that you sometimes write 0z like "Oz"? Lol

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3056561437689538&id=100000071343185&_rdr To lighten the mood...I came across a story about this video. This lady is many of us here if we reach that age, lolol (oh, and she's still alive--and now 105!)

Layin the troll jelly on thick today, aren't ya? Lol

One thing to add a bit of hope for our snow future...Looking through our history of solar minimums and the winters around them, it appears there has only been one minimum on record (that is, back to 1883) where we didn't get above average snow either the winter of the minimum or the winter after...and that was 1954. (And even then we did get 19 inches in 55/56). All the rest had an above average winter within 1-2 years after the minimum. I think I like that trend

I hope you're right...because this has been a bit of a rough run even by our standards. Barring any March miracles, one warning event in 4 years is rough even for us, I'd imagine... (this is when you pull out data to show that this isn't unusual, lol). But being just 29, I guess most of my lifetime we have gotten a good punch every few years...and have not had a dry spell without a warning event (at BWI, that is...not including DCA's footer last year, lol) last longer than 4 years. So perhaps it seems worse because of that!

So would it be better to look at the raging +++++AO winters and the winters that followed?...

I actually do wanna know...so we know whether we may need to cancel next winter already, lol (off the top of my head...at BWI, I know 1998-99 wasn't much...2012-13 kinda sucked, and 1973-74 was actually halfway decent total-wise)

Why are you guys torturing yourself with these snow maps? I mean, mercy...a snow map240 hrs out? What in the world does that even mean in any kind of season--let alone one like this one? Lol

I think from here on...no winter outlooks until December. Just don't do it, lol Don't even bother (unless it's a mod nino or something)

Dang...is the first week of March hail mary window already closed? If so...oof. That would be a typical end to this winter, smh

Just enough to fail at getting a record fail for the month...lol

Dang man you already giving up on next winter? Lol From your posts it sounds like you don't think we can get a decent winter again...I'd rather wait a few more years. If we continue to fail, then...maybe a change in climate will be a concern for our snow chances...

Would be the peak of unfairness if it did...smh Hope this was just an off-run! (because I'm just holding out a little hope for the first week of March...after that I'm out, lol)

And then there's the cold water poured on the post before yours...lol Thankfully it's just one run!

Yeah that particular look we have seen too many times on the models this year...ain't buyin' it, lol

So right now your probability of posting the the snow probability maps is 0%

It is his 250th birthday year, after all...

Man, at this point, if we gotta suck this month, we may as well go for the historic Feb. mark of not even a trace...lol So unless we have a legit shot at an inch, I don't want a trace to ruin it, haha

Yeah that one kinda hurt too...but it wasn't as bad for me that time because I wasn't following this site or the weather models back then (so I didn't know exactly what was being shown a few days prior). But now...that one is my Exhibit A for...NEVER TRUST A NINA. Those winters will break your heart everytime (don't count 1996--that may have been once in a lifetime, lol). Next time we get one, I don't even think I'll bother much with tracking!

Man that one still kinda hurts...lol That turned out to be the only shot at a foot we've had since 2016 (barring a March miracle this year)

Ordinarily I'd agree about lot giving up 7-8 days out...but that whole week is so historically futile for us (for some strange reason) that I just skip it, lol But hopefully we can have something for the week of the 1st start popping up by the end of the week!

But when was that ever a storm, though?
