Mclovin it as anticipated the very first breath of warmth completely melted away my desire for snow

Winter is tolerable if it's either cracked or consistent otherwise it kills its own vibe for real

I could kiss you all 

Not even cause of the storm or anything I would just surmise that you're all cuties soo

At this rate, starting to feel like I wanna be further west than Detroit. 

You mean like Chicago 

A bit more fresh snow to get through the rest of the cold to come after and then hopefully let's get on to spring 

^ This is why whenever I go touch grass for a few hours, when I come back I check the models first and then the board because you mfers gon give me whiiiiiplashhhh

Not often you see the ensembles with better QPF than the OP

It's giving me a bit of hope surplus rn for sure

GEFS another slight improvement in qpf

I know we're just jerkle circing over every bit of noise but 

Euro is a tick stronger and NW again too.

So who's starting the next thread? Already only like ~120 out

Are we like so  back again right now or something?

Just about two weeks away from the end of malackalogical winter, so either we get a nw trend sometime next week or 

Happy to see the bleeding kind of seem to stop on the next next (weekend) system

My bday is the 11th. I will reel one in.

It definitely helps that the entire region has been snowless this winter.  It would be much worse if I was sitting at 7" and Waterloo and Dubuque were at 35".

100%. It's like this winter just didn't take at all so far.

How's it going @cyclone77? Top event of the season in progress?

Believe me gang I've learned that lesson. Just found it funky fresh that two separate models actually depict something similar at that range, because even with long range OP guidance being what it is, I don't remember that happening yet this season strictly from a statistical standpoint (even if it means nothing)

Unfavorable pattern plus lots of persistent cutoff which occasionally time their way into fantasy range mirages

Alright idk if I've misled but did you see 12z today?

Has there been a single run yet this entire season where the GFS in Euro actually depicted roughly the same evolution for a storm at more than 200 hours out?

counterpoint: riding it

Love this new optimistic Alek bro

Think about it, the experience and memories this storm will give them down there probably just seeded thousands of potential weather nerds for the future

Ope here comes the GHD-ish episode of the season, can't believe it's already that time

Obligatory pls lmk if this is nonsense. Y'all know I'm the premier climate change believer ofc, but the one vibe this winter in isolation hasn't given me yet is that it's suddenly that much harder to get snow at our latitude. It's a bad winter for meteorological reasons far beyond my understanding, but it's not like it's been torching the entire time and only snowing up north. There just really hasn't been shit anywhere. For that reason -and please don't take this as me trying to sugarcoat a shit winter- this season's L's aren't quite as depressing as last year's were (again, in isolation) where we kept being just a bit too warm every time or something.
