Blizzard of 93

This one is frustrating the heck out of me, so I’m moving on to what’s potentially next. At least we are above normal snow at MDT & already have our best snow season since 2021 in the books.

I’m so done with tracking this storm this weekend. It’s a complicated set up & we rarely do complicated situations well around here. Moving into later next week into the week of the 7th to 14th, the pattern still looks cold & active with chances. We still have 2 more months to score snow.

7 for my low & currently.

Hey guys, I had a rough day yesterday with snow removal. My snow blower broke right when I tried to fire it up. The pull cord gave way & snapped off. Then, I tried several times to use the electric start, but had no luck. My neighbors came to my rescue. My next door neighbor let me borrow his & then my good pal across the street came over with his snow blower to help me as well. It would have been a nightmare to hand shovel my lengthy sidewalk & dig out 3 vehicles that were plowed in on the street. Despite the wonderful help, it still took over 4 hours to remove the foot of snow & sleet. The snow piles on the street from digging out are massive. If we get more snow this weekend, it’s going to be a real challenge. I thought about rooting against this weekend’s chance, but who the heck am I kidding…?! Lets’s try to reel this next one in!

Long way to go with this weekend, but need a good day of trends today. Last week at this time, we were concerned about suppression. It turned out that Toronto & New England did very well while the southern PA mixed. We still had our best storm in 5 years, but it could have been more with a little better track.

Thanks @Yardstickgozinya !

Agreed, 12.5 matches surrounding Obs and is much more reasonable. You & I were close with our predictions!

This is MDT’s first season officially over 20 inches since 2021. We are now only 10 inches below climo for the season with 2 months still to go to score.

Side note, when CTP revised it down to 12.5 for the event, they didn’t revise the month & year to date snow properly. Today with the 5 pm summary, the month to date & seasonal snow to date are now all correct.

We will need a ruling from @GrandmasterB

Not so fast my friends…. Check again… they revised it down to a more realistic 12.5 last night at MDT… I picked 12.3…so I think that crown belongs to me!

6z Euro & 6z Euro AI for this coming weekend. Might be time to buckle up again…!

CTP is starting to ramp up the language for this weekend’s potential. KEY MESSAGE 2: Potential East Coastal Storm Threat this weekend There is a growing guidance signal for the development of a potentially impactful weekend coastal storm along the Eastern Seaboard. We will continue to monitor given risk of snow and wind impacts.

I just looked out again & there is steady light snow falling currently despite nothing showing on radar.
