  1. All it takes is 2 degrees colder to cause a problem and a wail of people to say "there was no warning".
  2. Thank you for the excellent write-up @brooklynwx99. Really appreciate your contributions.
  3. A preview of the 850 temps on the GFS as we near Christmas
  4. NAM would imply advisory level event for everyone N&W of I-95 for IP/ZR.
  5. My K-8 was #253, high school was #322.
  6. Schools in Philly are had a number and would call into a KYW 1060 AM in the morning with their posture (2hr delay, modified Kindergarten, etc.). As a kid, you'd be up at 6am waiting on your number to be called. It was like winning the lottery:
  7. Blocking is great, but you need an antecedent high pressure over Quebec to force northeast flow and the low and mid levels to lock in the cold. We don't have that so it let's the coastal rush south/southeast winds in and flip us to liquid.
  8. Watch this be an event where we clear out after dusk Wednesday for a few hours and then wet bulb like 2 or 3 degrees colder and jackpot. We're good for one of those a year.
  9. LWX 3pm AFD. See red highlighted section.
  10. That storm featured an intense gradient. Takoma Park got only 5", but Damascus got two reports of over 17" I believe.
  11. The only thing that would've made 2013-2014 truly epic would've been a solid 12"+ event for everyone.
  12. GFS is loaded for the holidays. Sharpen your shovels.
  13. Coyotes really yapping tonight in Sykesville.
  14. Can we tighten up the the discussion here and move the banter to another thread?
  15. Nobody should be throwing in the towel north of Mason-Dixon. This isn't late Febraury during a wall to wall torch winter.
  16. RE: Thurs-Fri event The 12z GEFS is advisory level snow/ice N&W of I-95. It's "contaminated" by a few inland running coastal lows that go into Lancaster/Lehigh Valley. If we get rid of those, it's probably a solid event.
  17. 12z GFS is a crush job for Thur/Fri N&W of I-81. The I-99 corridor up to IPT and CTP gets over a foot of snow. Mixed bag for LSV.
  18. My expectations for this week are just getting on the board. Anything else is gravy.
