Gfs correct again?

I would love to be up there for one of these storms. Looking forward to watching some coverage tomorrow. Just crazy

Got to -7 this morning. This has been a really good 2 week stretch for cold, snow pack, and we got several snow events. Early February not looking like a torch thus far despite a brief warm up middle of next week.

I’m embarrassed to say I was actually looking at air bnb’s in Maryland and Eastern pa this weekend. What a hobby. Kinda glad we never got fully pulled into this.

That northern piece of energy seems to have shifted south/moved quicker to consolidate with the dominant low off the coast so yes it has gone in the tank.

Yea wishful thinking to hope the Nam is sniffing out a trend for a more tucked in solution. I think we are still in the game for some decent mood snow Friday afternoon from the northern stream feature sliding through. Unfortunately, the southern low is just way too far east when it develops that even a due north trajectory wouldn't help. It is looking more and more likely to be a classic for New England though.

Not at all. I would consider that a win as the snow is winding down and I can turn on the weather channel to watch the coverage in New England.

Nam at range looks decent for a 2-4 event maybe more. More expansive precip zone.

40 inches in Ocean city haha that would be epic.

2 nice little systems on back to back days. Big tracks are always fun but I miss these little events with steady light snow. Closing in on about an inch at work, wonder how roads are holding up for the commute home?

I agree. I would love for this to shift and have us in the game but the ensembles do look pretty locked in to a late blooming evolution which would pummel New England. Even most of the MA except for the coast looks to miss out on this one. Looks like a classic for CT/MA that could rival some of their 2015 Blizzards in that snow blitz that year. I've always told my wife I would love to chase one of these up near Boston to experience a true Noreaster. This would be one I would be fairly comfortable locking in plans early to chase with all the major models agreeing that NE is in the crosshairs.

Nice big flakes on this back edge. A little over 2 inches. Very fluffy snow

I do get what you are saying to an extent and I’m not sure where you live exactly but I’m sure there are certain locales within our general region’s microclimate that do better consistently and other that would be slightly lower. I know for me, comparing my home to my office in Robinson it does seem like Robinson gets maybe slightly more (I’m talking like a couple of inches max) per year. But it is dependent on the event. In the bigger storm last December I had an inch or two more than at the office. I just think overall there isn’t enough variability throughout the region to sweat a few inches per year. It’s not like Cranberry is Deep creek haha.

It is snowing outside nice right now. Let’s get along. Who cares about who gets more. I literally have had storms where I can walk up the hill in oakmont and there’s more snow than I have down by the river. It’s still awesome to track and while it’s falling and we only have a few months to do it. My 2 cents at least.

Tomorrow looks good for a few inches I think.

Have to laugh at this. Appears that period is very boom or bust for someone in the eastern us.

We haven't had a good January in a while, at least to me it seems that way. I think despite the melting yesterday January gives the best shot for pack retention. If I'm being picky.. last December was pretty awesome. So if I'm choosing month for most snow that would be choice slightly in front of January.

I think a relaxation of the pacific is bound to happen in early February. As you said, the question becomes is it brief or locking in like December. I hope we can get one more longer trackable event next weekend and I'll be happy with January.

Snowacane is back on the 12 GFS for the 28-30th timeframe but it doesn't track inland stays mostly offshore.

Thar should work.

Euro seems to have trended less amplified from its 18z run last night. The GFS has moved from nothing at all to at least somewhat in the euro direction. Not loving the set up but if we can catch a few inches on the fringe of this to freshen up the pack with the cold staying for a while I'd be pretty happy.

Don’t make that bet I like your posts and you’ll lose that lol

I agree but once ensembles are gone and it’s short range models I don’t get quite the dopamine rush. It’s time for radar

Yes and such a long duration event. I was out shoveling in the morning and it was still snowing

I was driving home from st Vincent that evening. Heaviest rates I’ve personally ever seen. I remember getting home and checking the nam on the old ncep maps and we were in the light blue (0.75-1.00) for 6 hour precip.
