    I have been offline most of the day besides early this morning so I am asking this with honest confusion: what did he do to the American suite of models?

    Tried making them Great.  Realized it was futile.  So out behind the woodshed they go.

    I have a fetish for an all snow event. Will that ever happen?

    Only if we sacrifice a poster to Ullr. 

    Not to pick on anyone in particular, but I'd vote the next person to post a 300+ hour OP Kuchera map.

    I've noticed over the years that the nam occasionally has weird precip issues that look to be more of a software bug than valid output, albeit with its own caveats.

    If look at all the other model parameters there they aren't discontinuous run to run in the same way that precip is.

     

    Was thinking the same thing.  The low placement doesn't move far, like at all, yet the precip orientation is completely different.

    I think it's only the second time since 2018 that the flag has been buried. I can't recall being over 15" on the ground all that often.

    Maybe my memory is still there. I checked CoCoRaHS and I have December 2020 (20"), March 2023 (18"), and today (19") as my only snow depths over 15".

    This is my greatest depth since my records started in 2018.  Next closest is 14.5" (CocoRAHS...15" for GYX) in 2023.  My only other = >12.0" depths (5 total) are from January or March 2023.

    10.2" for me. But my CoCoRaHS can overflowed. I could only get 0.35" liquid out of it, but I grabbed a snow core off the board and left it at home to take care of later. The flag marking the snow boards is officially buried too as I'm up to 19" on the ground as well.

    Never a doubt.

    You should get yourself one of those 8" metal cans, like the one I have.  No issues with overflow ;).

    My flags are gone too.  Was just looking where I can buy more. ACE has them.  Will need to put them through the drill holes on the boards.

    Our daughter woke up and snuck into bed around 4am, I peeked at the radar and thought "welp, so much for that 4-6."About 8-10" down and still dumping here.

    Nice!  Won't make the official observeration until 7, but I'm guessing we're at if not over 8", still ripping

    I'm not off grid as I'm still connected but my house has been all electric/solar since 2017. My panels took only 5 years to reach their return on investment here in CT with the 3rd most expensive electricity in the US. My Eversource bill has been pretty much the $9.62 minimum service charge every month. 

    Here is a shot yesterday of my solar powering my 2 mini splits directly from the sun from 10-4. It's also sending all the extra back to the grid and I'm on 1 to 1 net metering so any excess powers them at night for free.

      Also notice my mini splits run nonstop all day at low power where they are crazy efficient. Entire house stays nice and warm at 70 all day.

    Just got solar and heat pumps in December - albeit the latter is mostly for cooling due to the direct southern exposure we have.  I'm impressed with their production.  Even with the solar min, and "cold" season we're having, I'm covering 80% of my electric to date.  By the time the equinox rolls around I'm sure I'll be at 100%, and then will net-meter all warm season and get my ROI in 5 years as well.
