    I was visiting a friend in NW DC - only time I've ever experienced thundersnow. It was awesome.

    I think there also has to be a slight increase in the probability of just insane snow events. Yes, it will snow less overall. But it still gets cold enough to snow here, and every so often the "stars will align" and you'll get a sufficient air mass that overlaps in time with one of the super-charged storms we are seeing more often (2016 for example).

    i love Snowshoe - haven't been in years, but I miss it.
  4. pazzo83
    had that "feels like snow" feel a lot of today. Alas...
  5. pazzo83
    lol no - i haven't even bought a shovel yet. I know how this works
  6. pazzo83
    we just bought a house (first time living in a house in like 20 years) - i need to shovel my own gd snow at least once. Come on.

    lol - you physically being in the DMV has been the problem this whole time. man...

    we're nearing the coldest climatological period of the winter, and major NE cities are struggling to get below freezing.
  9. pazzo83
    Lowest temps so far this year: DCA: 32 PHL: 31 NYC: 33 BOS: 25 man....
  10. pazzo83
    With a low of 32, DCA has yet to dip below freezing this year. LOL.
  11. pazzo83
    yeah except for the millions of people who live there, of course.
  12. pazzo83
    lol I lived in Staunton from 1991-2002 (and then 4 years in C'ville after that) and my parents still live there, but ok. In 1994 we got down to -15F in town, on a day that only barely got above zero. 1996 had a similar cold snap. Night time temps in the teens were common from Dec - late Feb. Even this year's Christmas cold snap would've yielded below-zero temps in town years ago - instead it was right around zero.
  13. pazzo83
    59-7 lol

    It's even more pronounced for cities closer to the coast. I feel like NYC has barely gotten below freezing at all this season (aside from the brief Christmas cold snap).
  15. pazzo83
    20-30 years ago, nighttime temps in the teens were routine there. Now with a pretty good airmass in mid Jan and optimal cooling conditions, you're stuck in the 20s. That translates for the urban areas that used to get into the 20s now stuck above freezing even overnight. It's a major problem (if you like snow).
  16. pazzo83
    lol and the urban core is 38-41F at 10pm in mid January. It's just not what it was....

    this subforum handles the disappointment remarkably well. the meltdowns I remember from the NYC forum were ridiculous (which is probably why we see some NYC-area posters here).
  18. pazzo83
    i'd kill to be in Sierras rn. I can't even fathom the quantity of snow they are getting.
  19. pazzo83
    Exact same here (29.5).
  20. pazzo83
    I think we'll get sub 32 here in upper NW DC overnight tonight. But DCA might not - still hanging in the upper 30s.
  21. pazzo83
    Yeah I lived in NYC from 2010-2018, and really there was one bad winter in that stretch (in terms of little snow) - 2011-12. 15/16 would've been bad had it not been for the January storm that year (and the fluke -1F reading on Valentine's day, possibly the last time Manhattan will ever dip below zero lol). But yeah it's been a struggle here.
  22. pazzo83
    Frankly, I think this best captures the snow-lover's dilemma in this area - for the most part, we are f'd. The base state is becoming increasingly hostile to non-negligible likelihood significant snow events.
  23. pazzo83
    Temp and dewpoint rising here in Tenley - 65/58 right now.
  24. pazzo83
    i wouldn't be surprised if we hold in the low-mid 60s tonight.
  25. pazzo83
    We had temps in the 80s in January (in the Shenandoah Valley) that year.
