Chris, do you think if we get enough snow in these first couple of events that will make the track for that one sink farther south? 2/11-13 is the peak of snowfall climo around here, many famous snowstorms occurred in this time period!
-
Mixing only for Belmar and points south.
-
we can just use the euro for all our forecasts right? I wish I could get all my food from europe too, since it's much healthier.
-
plus that was a much snowier winter -
it's also because of that darned wind, it feels much colder than it really has been.
-
but doesn't every storm have a gradient?
-
congrats you managed to upset both snowman and mjo in the same post-- now that's what I call talent!
-
pattern reload after that?
-
well according to many, we're part of the midatlantic.
-
I hate the wind
-
it's seemed like a very long winter regardless of how much snow fell or not. We do define our winters by temperatures and not the amount of snow that falls.
-
It makes me wonder why multiday storms have become so rare. Going back through history they used to be much more common (from the 1920s through the 1960s).
-
Even the parts of SNE that are east of us? We've seen a few examples where, for example, the cape and other extreme coastal parts of New England change to rain before we do. So if the storm and the 850mb low both go south of us, it's simply a bowling ball storm and not an SWFE?
-
if one tracks far enough to our south that it never changes to rain would it still get the same name? Like if it didn't get north of the Delmarva for example?
-
why aren't they good for us if the storm track is farther to the south though? you could have one that tracked 100 miles to our south and then stay all snow?
-
February 2008 was the best combo, it came in strong and heavy and came in very late at night, during the diurnal min.
-
when did they start being called these? we just called them west to east bowling ball events and the general consensus was if the low passed to your south (south jersey to delmarva) you were going to get snow.
-
that's absolutely amazing, I wonder how close it comes to my dream scenario, where you can see it snowing from your 2nd floor bedroom window but it changes to rain when you're on the ground floor. If you have some tall trees there you could see snow cover at the tree top level but nothing outside of water dripping from the lower branches!
-
Where has snowman disappeared to?
-
How does the upcoming stratospheric event play into this?
-
is it possible we get into a suppressed pattern after the 14th and we go cold and dry like we were in January, Chris?
-
That acceleration was a disappointing surprise, but at least that first system did not produce much rainfall so most of our low rainfall records were set. It was still a surprise to see the speed up on such a short lead time.
-
I wonder how much of it has to do with elevation?
