Yep I remember you all the way back then. Jspin too. Dendrite obviously. Then of course there were a whole bunch down in the mid-Atlantic too.

I think you started posting when you were still at PSU! Lol. I was just out of college. Crazy. Hopefully this stretch coming up can be another good one for the memory bank. We def got lucky during those first 10-15 years on the forums with some epic winters and epic storms.

Btw…..Happy 20 years of posting…I think you and I starting posting on Wright weather bulletin board (WWBB) around the same time…that epic 2004-05 winter. I had lurked previously but didn’t post until that winter. I remember seeing you show up and I started interacting with your posts. Jesus…20 fooking years…and some of the same peeps are still here from that era…Jerry, Ginxy, Kevin (CT Blizzard back then), Ryan, Bob, Tamarack, and several others I’m sure I missed. Fun times.

The crazy part is the pattern is still very weenie-ish at the end of the ensemble run too so you’d probably have more in the pipeline. Still gotta actually get these events to deliver but confidence is rising quickly.

This is what it looks like at the end of the run…there’s still a lot of bullets in the chamber on that look..esp if we try and sneak some ridging out west
-
How long has it been since we saw this type of Scooter high with a juicy system coming out of the south? It’s starting to get that “look” where something larger could happen…just need to get this a bit closer but the cross-guidance support is really strong for being a week out

Almost reminds me of this event http://www.meteo.psu.edu/ewall/NARR/1994/us0107.php#picture

Tracking February 6. Light to moderate event potential
ORH_wxman replied to Typhoon Tip's topic in New England
Commutes might not be that bad for most. Much of this falls after morning commute and ends before evening commute. Exceptions might be SW CT where it could affect the morning commute and then further northeast into Maine where it could still be steady precip during evening commute. -

Just not a whole lot of exciting dynamics with this thing. The hope is that the vort attenuates a little less than model guidance shows which would strengthen the thump. But otherwise I think 1-3” for many. Maybe some 4” lollis north of pike into CNE. All guidance keeps the secondary sfc reflection SE of the region now so I don’t see any liquid precip over the interior. -
How can you say that without it posting a clown map for Moonshine? I will say the most impressive part of the EPS run is the 6” mean for BOS-ORH (and you can extend that basically down to HVN) for next week’s event (the event after Sunday which could be a prolonged overrunning situation)…impressive mean for that far out.

Yeah the tick colder on 18z euro makes the difference between all guidance pretty small now save for the very paltry 3k NAM but hard to take that seriously yet. Maybe inside of 36h start giving it any weight at all. -

Yeah I'd want to see more guidance spitting out 0.40-0.50" of snow QPF before going anything above 4". Maybe that happens at 00z, but it's entirely possible it's mainly a 0.2-0.35" type event on the snow front. -

Not an appreciable difference in 18z GFS. PRetty consistent with other guidance for most of us. On the margins there might be changes. Maybe a touch weaker with the initial thump down in S CT if we're nitpicking, but still a pretty cold run with the sfc reflection tracking from near Delmarva to ACK. -

I'd take the over on 1" and there's a chance it could be 4-5" if things break right...not a large quibble though. I think i'd go 2-4 and prob 3-5 if we can eliminate some of the weirdo solutions by 00z like the 3k NAM giving us 4 hours of SN- that amounts to 1-2"...or some of those zonked Euro solutions which give us 2-3" but dangerously close to giving us 1". -

At least for the pike region, the models are pretty consistent about advisory snows....including the Euro. Down in CT, it's basically every model except the Euro. edit: I'll note that the EPS mean for Hartford is around 3" though, so it's a bit more bullish than the OP run...most noticeable difference is down in S CT where the EPS mean is 2-3" vs C-1 for the OP run.
