Blizzard of 93

The 6z Euro AI is on board for a late season chance around March 9th. It tracks a low from TN to near OCMD. Verbatim, temps are marginal for the LSV, but lots of time to sort out details if it even has a clue at this range. The AI has had a similar look for this time period for 3 straight runs. Hopefully we get one more to track.

This is great lunchtime reminiscing on PD2 back in 2003. This is my second place all time storm for my lifetime. On that Sunday morning that it started in the Harrisburg area, temps were in the single digits as a 1040+ High pressed down. It caused the initial large appendage of light to moderate snow to crawl north from MD into the LSV. Once you got in the precip shield, it didn’t stop snowing until around midday on Monday. I remember the snow intensity picked up as the day went on Sunday with the radar lit up the whole way back to at least Missouri. The low then tracked toward the Carolina coast & intensified Sunday night. The snow got heavier Sunday night into early Monday. Temperatures actually rose into the upper 20s as the coastal low took over. Then on Tuesday the upper low moved through, bringing a few more inches to top it off. What an epic, long duration, historic storm!

Apparently that’s 2 runs in a row with this similar look on the AI for 3/9.

Here is what the GFS delivered this run… If only…

You were clearly very tongue in cheek & quite funny. I was mentioned a few times & thought it was hilarious. We all have our tendencies & track records in here, but I realize that it was all in good fun.

Lol, this is a … wait for it… Weather board!!! We discuss current & potential upcoming weather. If you don’t like it, no one is making you post here…

He commented yesterday about the Caps in Mid Atlantic Banter thread.

Euro & GFS both show a Winter storm chance around March 8th.

Lol, Happy hour GFS says we only need to wait 16 days for our late season Winter Storm…

Same low here.

Last year was actually better in terms of snowfall so far at MDT. Last year MDT was at 18.7 for snow by now, which is where they finished. Last year should have actually ended up as a 20” plus season at MDT if that death band during the final event last February that hit me and areas along Blue Mountain to the east didn’t rob the rest of the LSV of the 3 to 6 that was forecast. Me & a few guys on the east shore of Harrisburg & out towards the Lehigh Valley ended up getting 6 to 8 while MDT was in between bands & only got less than 2. I’m hoping that MDT can get another 4 or 5 of snow this season to cross over the 20 inch mark, which would bring the total a little more respectability when we look back someday. We have certainly had the cold this season, but as you said, we have not yet had a signature storm to bring the snow total up. We have another 5 realistic weeks to score, so hopefully we can pad the snow stats a bit before it’s over.

0z ensembles for week 2 all show that we should at least have chances as we roll through early March.

Indeed, but I just want one more solid Warning level snow event before it’s all over.

6z GFS says to not put away the shovels & snowblowers. This run it shows 3 chances between March 4th & 10th. Maybe March will have a chance to make up for some of our February disappointment?

0z NAM & HRRR both have a coating to an inch or so of snow for the LSV tomorrow with the upper level low.

Well done sir! I’m here giggling & laughing out loud. Mrs. Blizz is not amused with my outburst of laughter. You absolutely nailed it!

12 for Marysville low

0z GFS is a late February into the first week of March snow lover dream run tonight. Hopefully a couple of these potentials become reality in the next week or 2.

I concur as well… We have 6 weeks left to score.

Wouldn’t it be funny after the disappointment from this week’s miss to then get hit with something like this to end the month?

14 for my Marysville low.

I know more on here have not give up yet, I was just pointing out @psuhoffman being concerned that he was on the same side as JB, but now he has MU too on his side!

Not sure I’m following you here?

He’s on team @psuhoffman & JB! PSU should be happy that he has another pro Met besides JB on his side.
