20" is above average in my yard. Did that 2 winters ago.
I have had above average snow 3 of the last 6 winters out here in western Augusta County. The 3 that weren't had really awful totals, but it hasn't been horrible here all things considered.

Started off rain here as expected. Snow started mixing in within minutes. Temp is 38 and dropping fast. Should be all snow for about 3 hrs with some good rates. LFG!

I mean it’s not panic if it’s rooted in science. The cards are stacked against us in Ninas and Ninas more often than not double dip.
This is a storm thread and you are canceling the next two winters in it! Lol

I know but we’ll probably have to wait until 2026-2027 for another chance at an AN snow season.
Is the Panic Room closed for cleaning or something?

The latest GFS doesn't like your ideas. Only .23.- .39
isn't .39 in the .35-.55 range?
eta: PSU wasn’t talking about forum-wide ranges. He was saying if you could get qpf in your backyard to .4 to .5 then you can multiply by more than 10 and get 4-8” in places. At least that was my take.

I gotta find my map where I parodied his maps. I think I posted it last year
His start time maps are the best!

Whatever happens for the rest of this winter, we're going to consolidate the post mortem and its future implications in a single thread. I'd actually prefer if someone starts that now and starts putting the conversation there.
I thought this was the post mortem thread when I logged on!
eta: heading over to other thread where we are talking about snow 3 days from now

Is it telling that it’s 46° in Staunton and is snowing and raining at the same time right now?

Yeah, the guy who helped developed the RAP says it's shit, lol
To be fair, he only said it was shit for snow totals

Under did the two snow events and really didn’t get things right until 24-36 in advance. This event was a big fat Zero 24 hours ago and this thread had zero responses for like 4-6 hours at one point
im watching radar, wind direction shifts and satellite plus WVapor now. Models don’t matter
You’re watching water vapor? Wow, that’s cool, bro. They told me it was invisible in science class. Dafuq do ‘they’ know anyways?
All kidding aside, nowcasting is a thing and is also an art. What’s your forecast and for where?
ETA: ninja’d. See your forecasts above. Think you will bust high with ground truth, but good luck! Seriously

Goddamnit, y'all. I have literally worked as a RAP/HRRR developer, and I would still use the JMA or NAVGEM before I used the RAP/HRRR system for snow amounts.
The next run of the HRRR is the most important run of our lives

My concern w the storm is we’re counting on dynamics to get us cold enough for a marginal snow event from a system that’s been weaker than modeled over the past 24 hours
I think it is the stronger, more consolidated, and souther closed low pass at 500 that has made the difference.

The squirrels are going crazy out here today. They know something is coming.
That, combined with the MGI (Migrating Geese Index), tells me that something significant is afoot.

YupWondering if models are getting to the point where there is no longer a last minute north trend bias, and storms are just as likely to trend south towards game time?

I don’t know how, and I’ll believe it when I see it, but we might have just reeled in something out of nothing again. Snowtown USA baby!
Isn’t this 3 snowstorms in the last month or so with significant south trends under 24 hours of onset?

If I think that this is going be north of us, do you not want me to say it? Just… be silent?
I’m sorry but that’s not how I roll. If I think it, I’m gonna say it. Just be grateful that I’m not going to repeat it every 5 minutes like some others do
I was defending you in the first line of my post and just being cheeky with Yoda. I have zero problems with you.
It was meant for those that post they are moving on (which you didn’t) rather than simply moving on.

Are you going to say the same to Terpeast?
He didn’t post that he has “moved on.” He just gave his opinion. But sure, if makes you happy.
Hey Terpeast, or anyone for that matter, why post in a thread to tell us you have moved on? Just leave the thread. We will figure out that you have moved on all by ourselves. And then the only people left in the thread can track in peace without being heckled by the ones who say they moved on but clearly have not.
