Jan 2016 came in pretty far north but the table was set so perfectly for us. The only time we had a legit block all winter and the antecedent airmass was the coldest we had that entire winter. I'll never forget onset that afternoon. Temps in the low-mid 20's. Every single flake stuck and the roads caved 5 minutes after it started snowing. 

Top 10 storm since 2007 for sure

I dunno about you but Jan 16 is top 5 all time for me...

If you want to see some good snow... turn on the Boise State/Fresno State game

Wow... I dont even like college football but I think I'll leave this on. 

@Snowchaser this forum can be chippy as hell if you're not in the "in crowd" but it's also full of really brilliant weather minds and people who love for snow like I do, so 8 years later (plus several on EasternUSWX) I'm still here. Under 1400 posts in 8 years, mostly obs and banter and I'm in here lurking nearly all day every day. I almost never post in the non-banter threads because I almost never have anything useful to add and I'd rather just follow this forum like a weather soap opera. Just my 2 cents.

Wonder if its too soon to try and pinpoint where the best frontogenetic forcing and banding will set up.

We have to wait until were in the CRAS wheelhouse to pick up features like that... Or just ask jimbob2162

change of pace ...  when do you think the skins will pick up K. Hunt.  After all they picked up the S.F dude .    Any fantasy Footballers here?   S. Ware  RB (k hunts replacement) or M. Breida (SF) RB

 

I'm hurting at RB and I'm thrilled I got Ware. I think he will be enough to put me in the playoffs and then it's any given Sunday. I was pissed I dropped Aaron Jones right before he was unleashed and Dalvin Cook and David Johnson have been screwing me all season.  If you have to pick Breida or Ware, I say Ware. Game flow and match up are better imo. 

The Canadian HP never showed up on this run... 

Just shut off the outside hoses since its apparently going to be below freezing from Wed night to Fri morning... I wonder what the record low high is for Thanksgiving at the airports... 12Z GFS showing 30 for the 18Z temp at BWI.  I feel for the people having to play instruments at the Macy's Day parade... 12Z GFS showing 12Z temp at 22 in lower Manhattan w/ single-digit wind chills.

Velocity scans look pretty cool

Glorious outside... just went for a Jebwalk in ripping snow on November 15th!  The wind definitely adds to the "atmosphere" out there...

Hearing 18z euro might have been a touch better than 12z. Anyone confirm?

The snow map looks better. That's about all I can say from my phone. I95 amounts up by an inch. The 2" line went from just SE of 95 to Waldorf-Annap. 

Decent couplet over the bay SE of Baltimore... 

Cool view as it rolled into Bowie

Seems to be falling apart right at my doorstep... 

As much as I'd like to vote for '83 since I supposedly began life during that storm (Born in Nov '83  )... Its hard to say between '96 and Snowmageddon 1... '96 was absolutely epic where I lived at the time in western HoCo right on Parr's Ridge... I think we measured around 32", but it was hard because the drifts were everywhere.  There were several 5-6' drifts in my front yard.

I LOVED Snowmageddon 1 because it dropped an obscene amount of snow, but also because it was an MA Special... SNE and NE were completely left out
