What I like is we're about to enter a period that should provide us with some opportunities. That's a start -we can figure out details later on, but at least we can potentially see our way to victory. Can't say that in the current pattern.
GFS blows up a nor'easter JUST too far east for us next Wednesday - storm forms off the Carolinas and bombs out as it moves NE from there. It's a Garden State mauling on this run.
It was abnormally dry out there last year, and the valleys (where everyone in CA lives) depend on Sierra snowmelt for their water supply. Not to mention the increased wildfire risks that originates from dry winters.
Meanwhile -
The west coast has been, and will continue to get blitzed by AR storms over the next few weeks. Incredible rainfall in the bay area (saw some projections of over 30" of rain near SF) with heavy Sierra snow - @Mount Joy Snowman Mammoth is already well over 200" for the season at the base and they look to pick up at least 8 to 10 feet over the next 7 days. I've been hoping for one of their patented 500-700" winters and it might just work out for me. 131 days until I'm there...
That's for sure - ironically, my temp fell into the 40s last evening at about 8pm and slowly fell from there...last time it was above 50 was prior to 8pm.
Not to be overly critical, merely an observation...forecasts for here last night were off a bit. Locally I saw forecasts of temps in the mid to high 50s, when I left for work this morning it was 41. Not really close to what I was expecting.
Picked up .38" of rain today.
I still have yet to see snow on the ground this season. Maytown picked up 1" several weeks ago while I was at work, where there was nothing on the ground. By the time I got home that evening...Maytown was green.
Who in this thread thinks like this? I'm not reading any of that.
My weather memory is pretty good- believe me, I remember some very lean snow years back in the 70s and 80s.
