Was this the famous Norfolk and Atlantic City snowstorm that was a big bust up here, Tony? 1989 - Low pressure off the coast of North Carolina brought freezing rain and heavy snow to Virginia and the Carolinas. Snowfall totals in Virginia ranged up to 18 inches at Franklin. Freezing rain reached a thickness of two inches around Charlotte NC. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

haha it's going to be in the mid 40s with sunshine on Sunday

Yeah okay meanwhile we will have zero precip for at least the next 7+ days and milder weather starting Sunday and continuing into next week

it's not getting pushed back, forget the GFS

looks like warmer weather 45 degrees finally gets here by Sunday the 23rd and possibly 50 by next Tuesday? Best part is it will be sunny!

Yes to see that in a la nina might mean we are turning a corner. It's like how 2000-01 was an indication of snowier winters to come (even though we took a temporary step back in 2001-02.)

Yes, the higher variability and the extremes are because of CC. Higher precip storms too (intermingled with periods of less precip-- like our 0 rainfall in October and dry January.) Another thing to look at are cycles of wetter periods followed by drier periods.

it seems like less snowy seasons come after periods of high snowfall 1955-56 to 1968-69 were snowy, 1969-70 to 1975-76 were not snowy, 1976-77 to 1978-79 were snowy, 1979-80 to 1991-92 were not snowy, 1992-93 to 1995-96 were snowy, 1996-97 to 1999-2000 were not snowy, 2000-01 to 2005-06 were snowy, 2006-07 to 2008-09 were not snowy, 2009-10 to 2017-18 were snowy, 2018-19 to 2024-25 not snowy. Obviously there were some mixed periods in there too, but predominantly these thing go in patterns snowy and not snowy.

That's music for our ears, it could be like the early 2010s with the solar min and the better Pacific.

sunrise 6:44 am and it's 7:40 now, temp just went up one degree here

Weird it's an hour after sunrise and the temperature is still going down-- what happened to that warm late February sun?

Wait are you predicting another snowy stretch starting in the 2030s, Ray?

But Eurasia which has a much larger landmass is much warmer-- look at all that warm air over Europe and Siberia

That was the only exciting thing we tracked at all last year lol. We also had a pretty strong aftershock right after that on the same day (close to a 4.)

Yes and even in April we had a significant snow event! March 2015 was even better! This decade has not been kind to March snows though.

I saw one of the wings and the tail section came off-- they actually said that was a good thing as it prevented an explosion and a larger fire from happening.

From the way the news report I listened to sounded, the plane actually landed upside down?

wow this is very weird, they doubled the total.... I was wondering how the JFK seasonal total got up around 12"-- this is how. For the season they're up to 11.9 now?

The *ratio* is gonna be 0:0

by the same token, social media isn't the place to get good info either.

I just corresponded with him and when I mentioned marine heatwaves out in the West Pac east of Japan messing up the models he said he had no idea what I was talking about. He doesn't seem to know what a marine heatwave is and doesn't even seem to know that the northern stream has been unusually fast this year--and for a few years. He did mention AI and said AI models aren't good enough yet. Apparently he didn't know about the track record of the Euro AI this season.

Something to consider going forward next winter and beyond.

Was that our biggest storm that March or did we have another one that was bigger? I know we had an all snow event around March 20 to end the winter (just like we had one at the start of winter around December 20)-- our only two all snow events in 1993-94 and both were around 4-5 inches.

Wild how great 1993 and 1994 were for them. I remember we also had quite a bit of snow in those two Marches. I noticed they did well in two of our HECS too, January 1996 and PD2. December 2020 was their last good storm (it was also good here.) I'm surprised they didn't do well in February 2021.

and yet models aren't wrong lol when in fact he actually said they are wrong in the body of his social media post did this guy flunk out of high school or did he ever even make it to high school before he flunked out?
