Paleocene

will it turn the corner? that weak LP north of hte lakes was not there on 12z GFS. primary is much further south this run too

It's about time to crack open a crispy boy and watch the GFS flip completely to rain for the D9 threat dump feet of snow over the metro corridor . Happy happy hour everyone. On a serious note, there is a sliiightly stronger high over the north central plains at D7 on the 18z GFS run. Compared to 12z. Fingers crossed for some digital ice.

Euro (top) versus GFS (next post)

well, its about time for the euro to show absolutely no evidence of a storm at the d9/d10 window to cancel our 12z GFS optimism!

I am a novice but the op euro looks like it is gonna drop an atomic bomb across CONUS around D10

Stouts are great. Definitely not a "i want to drink 4 of these" beer. Thick, flavorful, caramel-ish, coffe-ish. More of a heavy winter beverage IMO. A simple guinness is a stout.

Calling @PhineasC to remind us that he lives in a place where it snows, but it has been warmer than usual there this year, but it still snows there, more so than the MA anyway

Alright, how do we keep this thing south? Pray away that spicy SE ridge?

The GFS, Para, CMC, and ECMWF all show a wave moving E/NE out of the texas/arkansas area mid-late next week. It's even there on the JMA and NAVGEM and ICON. For 8 days out its something worth looking at... looking for crumbs here lol

Thanks, got that. What geography does this chart cover?

Anyone got a link to explain how the heck to read these charts?

NC is great and all but can we move this stuff to banter? We can't even complain about not getting digital snow and instead go OT about residential location choice in relation to average annual snowfall! But, I see why we're upset...

Thanks for saying this. Drives me nuts. Especially when frd posts those incomprehensible stratospheric charts

Indeed, wut.jpg

does anyone remember the sun or laughter 39 and gloom in Silver Spring

The NAM did pretty well for the December storm, didn't it? I think I'll believe it for Friday-Saturday. Squashed south by our montreal-ish friend up there, some snow in the NC-VA piedmont region. Congrats Danville/Lynchburg?

Flurries in silver spring! Christmas has come

Offense taken

Just coming here to note that I think winter 2009-2010 broke me psychologically regarding snow. For the rest of my life in the mid-atlantic I will be chasing another winter like that, even though I know it's wildly improbable that will ever happen. I was in college in Adams County PA for all three storms and I will never forget any of them. Driving rural backroads after the twin February storms -it was like driving in damn canyons of snow. Literally above the roofline of my sedan on both sides It was like living in Montana for a week. Blinding wind driven snow jebwalks during the second february storm. Nowhere to put the snow that was stacked on top of your car because it was surrounded by piles stacked up after the first storm. Roads completely impassible. 2016 was like that for a glorious 18 hours but then drip drip melt melt... not the same. All I'm saying is, I understand why Ji is the way Ji is.

Hmmm

Flurries and a light dusting which even covered my street in Silver Spring. SICK

Dumping rain at 33 ish in silver spring right now. Our snow hasn't washed away though. Win?
