I know a lot of people here don’t like the Pope because he gets angry sometimes, but we need him. When the weenies get carried away hyping up the next potential blizzard, you can always count on the Pope to show up and smack us down with a heavy dose of reality. I said we would get 100 inches of snow last year, but the Pope smacked that idea down by simply observing the presence of geese in late November. He does things a little differently than most, and yes he has been quite cranky the past couple of years, but he is an excellent long range forecaster. 

You sure you don’t want to reach out to Ray

You know there is a legit chance when Heiny lurks in here.

I think heisy would say it’s a long shot , but that’s my guess (for anything big)

Your seasonal stuff has been excellent to read. I don’t do long range stuff but applaud the ones that do.  If you’re wrong you get called out and if you’re correct it gets forgotten about. 
 

@bluewave seems to be one step ahead of everyone currently. 

What is Bluewave saying for Feb

00z GFS Kuchera Clown run all the way out. Had the boys over at Hewlett Packard install the Cray at my house yesterday morning - because this was clearly run from my basement. 42" spot right over my house. Lock it in, lol. Map courtesy of Pivotal Weather.

A few miles west of you are the real weenie spots in Washington / S Goshen

There is something about Ray giving advice and counseling for a winter PTSD case that has me roaring in laughter.  I do understand Ray is great at what he does, but the king of storm melts counseling the king of seasonal melts is great shit.

What are you the king of

Yeah, he’s pretty much nailed it to this point. I’m also not sure I’d call a 5-10 day window a “pattern change”, more like a transient favorable period. And of course, without fail, and predictably, we managed to get the most mundane outcome out of said period.

Could have been worse . You got 6” in a couple hours in tail end of one system and you had good rates before the mid level warming moved in on the last system . Real bad luck would have resulted in less .

It’s been too mild most of the winter for SE mass and Cape with the lone exception of last few days lol

I don’t disagree with any of this. 

 

Scott never thought this year had  a very good look (FOR SE mass) inside day 10 except for maybe the one week period now we are in middle of .

Just because you want to travel to east-bum for snow....frankly, if it isn't going to snow IMBY, then just torch it.

That is a garbage outcome in my mind and for a pattern to be horrific enough for a full scale punt I wouldn’t anticipate NNE offering much of an escape

It would at least be nice to be so bad we can just set it and forget it.

That would not be nice in any way shape or form lol

So you think that CC is predisposing the Pacific to a -PDO configuration....

John has been hinting at this for a while I think 

Greta has a inflatable cosmic D and she is waving it at snow lovers along the CP of the North eastern US and every year the D inflates a lil more and pushes the boundary a touch NW

Later next week holds more promise for a SWFE I think. 
 

I’m done commenting because it seems to drive people to the Tobin, just not a fan of the look in the long range. Maybe it changes. That’s JMHO.

Who is driving to the Tobin 

Cranky Twitter feed for todays system seems like he’s following the HREF from two days ago

GEFS (which aren’t great) in the 11-15 day look better than the EPS which are hideous.

They bounce around like ping pong balls 

day 11-15 products are basically a weenie flip of the coin 

Many  had set the bar ripe for February melts . 
 

Still no idea how it will play out

I feel for folks in CNE and SNE. Our last several winters have barely worked because when it's not been hostile we've squeezed out a lot of marginal events. Still a bad stretch starting in 19-20 here. 

I guess some would say in 10 years that same pattern would yield a further push up and in until you see it break favorably in marginal events .. due to warming over that period or maybe that won’t be the case

I can’t figure it out, nor can others.  40” is a big difference when everyone else is within inches of each other.  That’s like a noticeable snowpack difference.  If we had 40” more, the stake depth would be two feet higher.  But that’s not just a couple inches here or there.  Thats the equivalent of four 10-inch storms where the neighbors got nothing.

Jay is 187?”’do they get a pass for having 50% more than Stowe in a season like this 

Seems like Bolton having 22” less than Jay is basically them being on the same measurement system this year . But everyone is used to it @ Jay 

Its simple really , the guy that measures in Leominster has a twin brother that’s lived in Jay for over a decade and now he had a kid that lives in Bolton and passed down the same technique
