Snowcrazed71

There's a few that have been leading the pack with this pessimism. I honestly and truly don't care if it doesn't snow until after Christmas. We don't truly get our winter weather going until January or February and even March. Our biggest snow storms ever have been in those months. Less common to have them in December. I would love to have some snow by Christmas. That would be awesome. But am I going to crawl into a hole and die. Am I going to keep on talking about how horrible this is and how I told you so and how I said that I knew this was going to happen and the pattern wasn't going to change. Or that It was going to keep getting pushed back. No. Those of you who have been saying that can keep on torturing yourselves lol. I'll be ready when that big one comes about.

Oh boy, I love how these crazy inconsistent model runs are just shredding some people apart lol. I'm sure as we get closer to these events, they'll be some surprises. Some will be good and some will be bad. But things are a changing that's for sure. Oh, and for those of you jumping off the cliff, we'll have plenty of ropes to help lift you back up :-)

You know, I'm not sure lol. I've been a snow waiting since I was a little kid, and I still feel like I'm a little kid. Sometimes. Sometimes I wonder if anybody else feels the same way I do, then I found the forum. Our chances will come hopefully soon. Thanks so much by the way

Happy birthday to ya.... I'm hitting 51 tomorrow! The best we can ask for is a nice Snow Storm soon! Lol. Hope you had a great Bday man

You know what would be great, if we could just jump to December 11th. Then we'll all feel more comfortable with what outcome we're going to be seeing four days later.. lol I think everybody wants a definitive answer on if we're getting a storm, if it's a large snowstorm, if it's a miss to the south, ect... The problem with some of us on here is we wanted an immediate answer now, and we take every single model run as if that's going to be the final outcome. Things are changing, but it's still going to be a week or so until we know for sure... Patients little grasshoppers

Did someone mention 1960? We had a Snowstorm that hit the mid Atlantic through New England on December 12th. High Total recorded was Newark New Jersey at 21 in, but it was commonplace to see anywhere between 12"-17" from Philly right up through Maine.

I will take either, but of course I prefer the first. Beggars can't be choosy, you may not get either. But this is fun to track. This is why I love the winter time. They may not all pan out, but it gives us all something to track and get excited about.

I do see the similarities between the pattern that would be setting up to pattern in 2010-2011. But, it does seem that the pattern back in 2010/2011 seem to push a little further south. Just by a little. So the hope is the storms don't get deflected to the mid-atlantic only. But time will tell. It's still very exciting to track what's coming and I love seeing that we're all discussing this in a positive way.

Same here. That was painful to see!

Well said. Looking back on most Winters... We typically do not see blockbuster storms or long stretches of cold and Snow until after the holiday. That is a fact. However, would it be nice to have a December to remember or an awesome wintry lead up to the end of December? Sure! But as you said, it is early. I couldn't agree more.

I think we know who seems to be having the meltdown over a 2-3 day delay. Lol

Well... Let's hope that we can make up for what we don't see in the next several weeks. I'm hopeful!

Just another article that was written last night again on the upcoming pattern and what they're thinking is going to happen for the upcoming Winter season. Again, very positive for us to have an active winter here in the east. https://justinweather.com/2022/11/27/how-the-winter-weather-pattern-may-develop-in-early-december/

So.. as we are waiting for our Winter to begin and the arrival of Snow.... I find myself looking at the west...especially Spokane.... They are looking at 1"-3" today with some heavy Snow Showers moving through... Then a more significant storm moving in from Tuesday night through Thursday night. These are the kind of Snow events I miss and am looking forward to. Am I the only one who does this? ( Live vicariously through other places getting the Snow ). Hope this isn't the wrong thread to post this in.

.57 here

I've been there too. I think last season you and I had a moment...lol. I'm sure you guys will move past this one. All we need is one big storm and everyone will be best friends. Ha!

What about the other guy .. John Homenuk? I never heard of him. Not sure how credible he is?

Found this to be a bit interesting. Let's hope it comes fruitful. https://www.severe-weather.eu/global-weather/snow-extent-northern-hemisphere-highest-56-years-winter-cold-rrc/

It's funny.. I can't tell if Kev is an adult or a teenager? He has tantrums and exaggerates what's upcoming. With that said, things are pretty much on track. The pattern flip is still showing up.... maybe later in the second week of December. I'm not sure if we've discussed anything that was going to happen on the first week of December. Our discussion has always been late second week. Now if it gets extended out another week or if it comes a little sooner, that's typical. I am just as excited and anticipating getting some wintry weather in here as everyone else on this forum. I'm just not going to have tantrums about it being delayed or not. At least not yet lol

I totally agree. That is a solid two weeks out. Never throw any numbers out that far out. We're still trying to figure out when and if the pattern change is going to happen lol

Have you ever seen that guy that does a YouTube videos Direct Weather? I don't think he's a weather guy, he just takes the models and just posts them on there like that's what's going to happen. His latest video he showed the GFS and that there's a big warm bubble that's going to take over in December. I kind of think that's a little premature. He's very enthusiastic but everything is major, or a monster, or humongous. . I definitely get a chuckle out of his videos. But kudos for his enthusiasm

Crazy , right. Have you seen the velociraptor running through yet?

Might you be right for December Kevin??? DAMN YOU..... Lolol ( joking off course ). The models have trended away from the colder pattern switch in the East as of now. They could switch back of course, but I just don't understand ( or have to much faith in the models ) anymore. It just seems like the weather is just so volatile that the global models can never get a good handle on the long range. Anyone care to chime in on this?

Maybe ENE, but not all of New England These were your words? Am I missing something? If I am clue me in please ( seriously... Maybe I missed something )

So case in point. Juno in 2015 was a classic Miller b. Storm which affected New York, New Jersey and southern New England. Nemo in 2013 was also a classic Miller b storm.. which dropped the highest amount of snow in Hamden, Connecticut at 40 in. Hamden. Connecticut is not Eastern New England. Hamden Connecticut is really western New England. Those are just a few, I'm sure I can name lots more.
