  1. I the short term, the 18z Euro & GFS both still like the chance of some light snow tomorrow over most of CTP.
  2. Yes! There were good trends on the models today for next week. We might have a couple of chances to get on the snow board next week. The AO and NAO look to stay negative over the next 2 weeks. The pattern looks active. I’m looking forward to the 0z runs tonight.
  3. Well said good sir. We have been spoiled, but I wouldn’t mind getting spoiled some more this year!
  4. Did everyone see the 12z ICON from earlier today for early next week?
  5. This is the best post of the year! We have been on a great snow run this decade. We were due for a clunker last year and delivered in historic fashion. This season can only get better! I am getting fired up for the potential that next week could bring in the winter weather department around here.
  6. CTP has introduced a chance of light snow into their forecast for overnight & tomorrow am in the Harrisburg area. I would just be happy to see a couple of hours of light snow and maybe a coating in some areas!
  7. We have the chance of some light snow on Wednesday morning. It’s showing on all of the models today. It’s not much, but a few hours of light snow that brings a coating would be nice.
  8. Great post! I think that many of us would take 75% of normal snow and run after last year’s disaster of a Winter. For the Harrisburg area, 75% of the normal seasonal snow average would be around 23 inches of snow. Hopefully we are in business again next week!
  9. I found our snow chances on last night’s 0z GFS-Para run. It has 2 winter storms for us. The first one is next Monday the 14th and the second storm is next Friday the 19th. Only 200 to 300 hours away....what could go wrong?
  10. The 0z EPS offers some good hope for Winter Storm chances as we head into the end of next week towards mid month. The pattern looks great at the end of the EPS run with -NAO, the ridge out west and the trough in the east. The 15 day snow map, for purposes of identifying trends, has the best look of the season for the Mid Atlantic & North East. Hopefully soon we are tracking a specific winter storm threat in the not too distant future.
  11. The happy hour 18z GFS had this storm for us that is only 300 or so hours away! Maybe we can get a little light snow on Monday if the storm comes together in time and trends a little further north. Lots of moving parts to sort out that the models might not get a handle on until after the New England snow storm moves out tomorrow night. In the meantime, I’m going to dream of a Winter Storm watch getting hoisted for this storm in just 300 short hours...
  12. The 18z Euro also put CTP in the snow game for This weekend. The winner this run in our group would be @Voyager .
  13. The 18z NAM got a little closer to threading the needle for some CTP snow. We need the perfect track and also need the low to strengthen at the right spot to get any snow out of this. Rates and Elevation would then help the cause as well. I would sign up for this solution right now. Let’s see what the 0z runs show tonight.
  14. MDT recorded another Trace of snow this morning. That is now the second “T” that MDT has recorded this season.
  15. There must have been a decent snow shower overnight in Marysville because I woke up this morning to my first car topper of snow this season!
  16. Congrats! Thanks for starting the Winter thread. What are your thoughts on the chances for the potential storm this weekend?
  17. @pasnownut what do you think of our winter storm chances during the first half of December?
  18. Yes, this weekend’s storm can’t be totally ruled out for CTP. The 18z EPS mean puts us in the ballgame & the Control run actually gets the job done for CTP snow this weekend. We would need a perfect track with an intensifying low that puts dynamics in play to get us cold enough to snow when the precip rates are good. It will interesting to track this one over the next few days. If this doesn’t hit, at least we are at the beginning of our window of opportunity over the next 2 weeks.
  19. Congrats! I had on & off flurries today here in Marysville. Happy Met. Winter everyone !!!
  20. The 0z Euro Op run looked interesting for a couple of snow chances next week. First, it shows a Clipper that brings light snow to us on Monday into Tuesday. Then it has a coastal storm for the end of next week. Fun tracking times are ahead!
  21. The ensembles are improving their snow look for the Second week of December. The amounts have slowly been improving the last few runs. The overall look of the pattern looks good for chances. That’s all that we can ask for...it’s good to just be in the game instead of facing a shutout pattern. Hopefully we are tracking a specific threat in the not too distant future.
  22. You inspired me today to do my first “snow mow”! I don’t like when blades of grass show through the snow, so this should help! Now, it’s just a matter of getting some snow on the ground.
  23. Nice! You know that we are getting close to game time when Horst quotes start showing up on here!
