Random question. Do Op runs have more skills than the individual Ens members when taken individually?

Any likelyhood of a two-three day event?

We got that during the holidays last year. 3 days of warm rain concluded by a massive flood

Ended with 3.7" of rain here - fortunately not quite enough to flood. Snowpack barely survived with about 2" left, and only a dusting on the backend. Some light snow just started.

just give me some north flow and flurries for a few days around Christmas. desperate times

Make it Northwesterly with good moisture please

In the meantime, it started snowing again. While what’s coming sucks, some of us should be really thankful we get to live through stretches like this. I wish it wasn’t so localized, this board would be such a cheery place!

You’ll probably get some at least from upslope I’d imagine?

Usually I’d think so, but last year taught me that you never know.

VT at least will flip back to snow this week.

We might be a bit too far east but gotta keep hope alive 

GYX gives a little hope 

This will be mainly rain at the coast but
perhaps some decent snow on the backside in the mountains.

5” overnight, just over 1 foot on the ground. Definitely a great stretch!

Pleasantly surprised here with 2” of fluff and it’s snowing half dollars.

The 00z models have a decent QPF shot overnight.

Sadly the midweek forecast has been getting warmer and warmer. Went from 39 to 42 to now 44 for a high (and we definitely don’t CAD so that’s probably an underestimate)

I read in the Miami AFD that their chances of a White Xmas are pretty slim too. Just a bad winter I suppose…

Nobody cares, I know, but it’s firing up along the Spine ahead of the clipper.

The low level S/SE flow is pushing moisture up the topography well before the better synoptic lift moves in after midnight.

Then when the flow turns W/NW, it should snow again over the same mountains.  Steady accumulating light snow in town at low elevation. 

In the same nobody cares category, some light snow started here as well about half an hour ago

You got a Genie lift to decorate that thing?

Lol it’s quite a process. We set it up next to the stairs and the loft above so we can decorate the top half from the top floor, then carefully move it to where we want it, in the middle of the room. The results are pretty cool though. This was last years.

Do you live at Rockefeller Center?

Lol 

we have pretty tall ceilings, might as well use them

Got the Xmas tree cut while it still feels Christmassy lol

I wonder how much damage the rain does this week. We’ve had daily snow yet the stake is stuck at 10” depth, so it’s starting to have some heft to it. I think as long as it doesn’t get too warm the damage won’t be too bad, but of course we’ve seen bigger packs wiped out lately. Either way though, this December so far has been a different beast from the last 2 years. Nice to see

Upslope of yore for the greens…just daily refills. Another 4 since yesterday. What a start.

Yeah this has been the best early December in a while. The skiing is phenomenal with so much natural terrain open 

Got another couple of inches overnight. What a great pattern

Just another showery round of fluff.

Yeah just started here too

Snowed on and off all day after about 4” overnight, but stake is stuck at 10” from compaction. Really picked up in intensity tonight, would be great to get to a foot 

Also snows really picked up again in intensity tonight 

I certainly don’t see reasons to panic up here. We’ve seen several bad runs but currently there are plenty of snow chances on both the ECMWF and GFS. Could be a disaster? Sure, but that doesn’t seem certain or even likely at this juncture

About 3-4” overnight, 10 at the stake

Snowing at a decent clip, 24.4F
