Ah well, there goes all my progress...I done messed up in the main thread again. Dang emotional post...smh

Yeah that hurts...the cities will basically have two weeks to score again. And if we only START tracking on 8th? That leaves about 14 more days for a big one...ack.

Ah, I didn't see that part (I've been turning site blocker on and off in disgust all afternoon, lol) Alright then...warm water in Indonesia...BOOOOO!

Not sure I follow, lol If the hypothesis is correct then yeah they're causing the problem are they not? Making them public snow enemy No. 1 (unless the elephant is ultimately causing them instead)

I move that from here on we call Hadleys Badleys...they don't deserve our respect, lol

BADley cells. That's what they are...BADley. I am growing to detest those wretched things! Boo. BOOOO Hadley...BOOOOOOOO!

Ya know what...way too much bad news about next month and our future snow climo in the LR thread...and it's quickly fouling up my good mood. I was hoping for a big snow next month, but I may have to just let that go... I think I'm just gonna enjoy what my Ravens are doing right now! At least THEY aren't affected by Badley cells (yes I said BADley) and pac jets on roids....THEY are playing well

Sure! They play at in downtown Baltimore at Camden Yards from March-October (and hopefully a couple days in November)

YEEEEEEAAAAAAH buddy!!! That's one monkey off our back--on to the AFC championship game. Still more work to do! Was really impressed by how, after the offense knocked off some rust (although Lamar himself wasn't rusty), this team picked right back up from where they left off before the bye week. They didn't blink! Man I sure hope this is finally the year...like how much better can a team be? And there is definitely something different in Lamar, and the team is just feeding off of it. Combine that with this special defense...I mean you couldn't have a better opportunity to do something special. GO RAVENS!!!!!!

Like Gerry Sandusky says: "THE HAY'S IN THE BARN!!"

And that's because we have an OC who actually uh...MAKES ADJUSTMENTS!

GO. TIME!!! GO RAVENS!!!

It's still rather rare. And who knows if that still works now. 2014 & 2015 were the last time... P.S. Where did you get the data for specific storms those years? (I have a list of the big ones and overall seasonal totals...but not the smaller ones)

Yeah I mean it's getting hard enough in DJF...how much more difficult in March? Although you wonder if the elephant may cause crazier dynamics that may lead to more flukes...but I wouldn't want to stake a snow hope on that!

Not getting a 1-2 footer this winter would absolutely suck. Heck, maybe that would mean they can't happen anymore, who knows? But either way, we're staring down at least 2 ninas (or three since they LOVE to triple dip in this "base state"), and even after that...who knows? So I viewed this winter as possibly the last chance of getting one for some time... I'm not even gonna waste my time if/when la nina comes back next year. It is not worth it...you get piddlings on the front end and torch by February, noreasters dry slot you and develop too late...not tracking that bull. My time will be better spent on other things.

4-5 weeks? Perhaps for n & w folks...more like 2-3 for the beltway where people actually live Once March comes it's pretty much done here, unfortunately (can get a little slop but I can remember few warning snows in March)

Personally, I'd rather not wait for March to produce a big storm--that has literally only happened for the city maybe 3 times in 120 years. Only N & W have a legit chance at a foot in March. And see, if we were not coming off the worst stretch in our history, not having a big dog in 8 years, a winter where we get what we got this winter, a slop 1-4" event or tow and maybe another warning event to get us to 20" wouldn't be so bad--it would actually be quite solid for this day and age. The problem is...if a big one doesn't happen this winter, with la nina progged to come back next year,n we could be waiting at LEAST another 2-3 years. We NEED it to happen this winter...which is why the news of a smaller Feb window is disappointing. To go a decade without a 1-2 footer would be a new snow low even for here--as previously at least every 4 or 6-7 years we'd get one.

It's hard to keep track of what imperfection is just random/bad luck like the tpv (bad luck we thankfully overcame this week) and what's...the other thing. Which category would suddenly ++NAO fall under? (maybe the answer goes in the other thread, lol) And also...how does it fluctuate that much from deeply negative to super positive? (Unless it wasn't "deeply" negative)

Wow--streamer!!! It's like somebody ripped open a down pillow, lol Nice bonus!

Fox 45

I think that's what people often mistake that for. It's easy to see orange and thing "Torrrrrrrch!" Lol What you like on that map is the above normal chances for precip in the south...that would mean the STJ is still alive and kickin'. Have some cold close by and you never know (enlightening I know, lol)

Watching the local news, and they were covering kids sledding at Rodger's Forge. One parent said when the flakes started falling, her son was outside in shorts and a t-shirt saying "I'VE MISSED THIS" She said the kid had been out there all day and half the night and said "I've been deprived...I'm not stopping! It may never happen again" This kid GETS IT

Unofficially measured 3.5" for thus event...total of 7.5 for the week! Given what we've been through the last 8 years...that's a pretty great week P.S. Yes I'm a bit greedy and would like those streamers not to miss me but...hey, what can I say? It's been so long since felt even this much snow!

This little speck of red NW of Leesburg...a speckband? Lol

I get the disappointment with the upcoming look (I am too). But all the same: Dread tomorrow or enjoy today...for me I'm gonna try and enjoy today. Snow is more precious these days...so why not enjoy it while it's here?
