  1. 18z OP GFS is a disaster. Hope the ensembles are different. System just winds up too fast.
  2. Personally, I'm more focused in the evolution at 500/850 and the ensemble mean versus operational. Beyond HR96, you'll just drive yourself crazy focusing on run to run variations of the operational side of things.
  3. Man, that's a sizeable number of big hits on the 12z EPS.
  4. Good point @brooklynwx99 how often do you see a closed 500mb low on ensemble guidance at D5/6?
  5. As long as I stay all frozen through the event I don't care. If that means ZR and IP that's fine. Just a stouter snowpack to keep the cold in.
  6. How about rain for La Plata and snow for everyone else.
  7. Yup. Having Walt at Mt. Holly was a treat. When he gets excited, hang onto your hat.
  8. Same thing with MOS guidance revert to climo temps by D6. Folks need to just take things a week at a time and don't wish away decent patterns.
  9. Eric Webb and Alan Huffman are probably salivating right now.
  10. Snow and falling temps are great. Cold powder with no temp worries. Deep winter
  11. 12z EPS implies we get snow this weekend. Not everything can be a BECS. Would be an advisory type event. Not terrible.
  12. Nice to see the ensembles agree with the OP. If the Euro looks anything like the Canadian, we might be on the way to stealing a third event inside 120 hours this winter.
  13. Adding onto my previous post, if the 12z CMC were to verify, it would bring DCA to near full climo for yearly snowfall.
  14. 12z CMC is nice for the weekend. Solid warning level event, no temp issues.
  15. Tomer and Tony (WPC met) are getting interested in this weekend's potential
  16. I can see the appeal, but the argument that I was making is that big storms seem to kick good patterns out of the area faster. Take a look at Jan 2016. Solid event, but 3 days later we're roasting and the snow is melting off fast.
  17. Yea it seems like we want to "sacrifice" this storm to set the table.
  18. To be honest, I'd trade a lone 3 foot blizzard for several 6" - 10" events and normal/below normal temps. Getting on big storm and watching it melt in 5 days is boring. Let's get and maintain a snowpack for once.
