  1. If I recall most models had us too warm around here for Monday morning, even 12-24 hrs before go time. Definitely underestimated the cold, maybe they will be off again, but who knows at this point.
  2. No drifts for this guy yet, but he doesn't want to leave the snow regardless of how much is out there...runs around eating snowflakes as they fall from the sky
  3. Ended up with 3.6", i was up at 1 am, it was just starting, so must have really come down between 130 and 5....might have even had a bit more, as it was already melting when I measured...the hrrr even as the snow was falling only had less than an inch for here. Love those small positive surprises, reminds me of my younger days when we didnt have so many models to look at....
  4. Sort of reminds me of what last night/this morning's little system looked like.....Cold air held in nicely for a change, gave us mostly snow around here. A few days ago, it looked like mostly 35 degree rain.
  5. In all honestly I almost ignored last night's wintry weather, looking ahead to Friday/Saturday ordeal and last night ended up being my 4th biggest "storm" in almost the last 2.5 years. Slow things down and just enjoy one day at a time I guess......
  6. With all the weather models available that come out 2-4x daily plus the Euro going out to 360 hrs, I think days become a blur waiting for the next models. By the time the last one finished up with the ensembles, the next is ready to go....time definitely flies by to me. Need boring weather I guess to slow down time, ha!
  7. I think we busted positively in last year's storm too...take what we can and enjoy it, maybe we squeak something out this weekend too, before a couple cold days. Then warm it up over the holidays. I have plenty of work to do outside anyway, lol.
  8. Hopefully I didn't just use up my surprise positive bust for the year or decade...call it 3.6" Above freezing and melting as we speak
  9. There is a surprising amount of snow out my window right now...eyeing at least 2 inches
  10. Only 32.5⁰ here, currently 18.7⁰...got a quick game of 21 with the kids, hands were frozen pretty quickly though, was surprised just how cold it was today, despite the forecast. For some things, it is nice not to have ice and snow everywhere...
  11. Yup....hope we didn't have our winter like week last week with absolutely nothing until spring. That would definitely suck. But these 1-2 week winters are getting old now, this is what I had come to know living in Delaware, not SNE...Warm/wet, cold/dry continues for the foreseable future it seems
  12. Lol at the snow totals in NJ.....Clearly the 12z GFS has clearly lost it. At least there is a storm
  13. Need some wind here in the valley, still stuck at 44⁰ while everyone else around is in the middle 50s....
  14. It has even 'tucked' a bit down here....my high for the day was around midnight at 40, only 39 currently. If we had any of the cold from last week, it would have been at least interesting to start tonight and tomorrow
  15. Overnight ensembles did not look good at all going into the week of Christmas. Definitely some can kicking at best, hopefully they are wrong. Will be nice to put a dent in the drought though. Hopefully we can time something nicely, because the moisture seems to be back. However for now it looks like the dreaded warm/wet, coldish/dry pattern setting up.
  16. Suns out now....I will assume most of our 2.5" will be gone in no time
  17. I think it snowed enough for us to get that here, just too much melting here in the lower elevation.
  18. Congrats there...only 2ish here Looks beautiful out there and nice to see
  19. It was snowing earlier and quite heavy in fact....but under the lighter echos our temp bumps up and switches to rain. Life in the valley, expected though with the strong S to SE winds
  20. Heavier echos and we dropped the whole way down to 34.8, now back up to 36 with light rain. Not expecting much here....good luck to the North and east
  21. And just like that the SE wind kicked in and the temp has risen to 36.9/24 in just the past 20 minutes. Definitely a few flakes falling now though...white rain for a while most likely
  22. Temp down to 34.5/25 here in the valley, off a high of 38.5 and a low of 14.2. Hoping for something better than our 0.1" last night.
  23. So, models are at least interesting for the area tomorrow night...what are we thinking? Cold rain with some mangled flakes or something to get us on the board? I told my wife a week ago, if we don't get any snow out of this cold pattern that we are moving to Ireland...I'm hoping tomorrow night doesn't ruin the threat, Lol
  24. so what you are saying is, there is a sub tropical "warm front" that keeps pushing northward (CC induced). Only, it is hitting the polar jets further north than it typically would have pre-CC era. However, recently over the past 10-20 years, it has made it so far north during the winter season that a stronger battle has developed ie...stronger geostrophic winds? Just trying to see if I am on the right path of understanding what you have posted...
