SnowenOutThere

Wonder how much more intense the costals will be, I guess whoever ends up on the right side of the mixing line should be in for a pretty good storm.

Its good we have recon in the storm as it has the IR uptick to see if it will translate to a stronger storm.

Looks like it might be primed for RI, I guess we will see throughout the night.

Nice it finally rained but waking up for the first practice of the swim season at 4am when its pouring rain was a little challenging sorta funny though.

Well at least you have memories of those times, I wasn’t yet born for 2001, can’t remember 2009 and was sick during 2016. The largest snowstorm I fully remember tracking and seeing was 9 inches of snow last year. So it irritates me a bit with how you complain a bunch about the winters and how you don’t get snow not realizing some have not gotten the privilege to even experience a mecs or hecs. That is why I appreciate the little events, because they are all I know.

I would recommend just being happy with what we get. A little bit of snow can make everything look nice.

I’m out past the peak of the elevation in western fairfax, it goes from 450ish a little up the road to 370ish at my house in a short distance, do you think this has any effect on the local climate with storms and such? I’d imagine the higher elevation out to the east helps block the rain snow line a tiny bit.

If we get a significant snowfall before or on Christmas it makes the winter at least ok, now if we get a blizzard Christmas then it makes the winter. After all it only takes one storm

Which do you pick?

If it is abnormal enough then it is also a sign that the climate is out of whack, whether its from climate change or that volcano earlier this year is unknown. Its mostly not talked about besides while it may be an indicator of issues it is less newsworthy, I mean the headline Extreme Lack of Hurricanes wont sell that well. Also when you are trying to convince someone to save the planet and their life by acting on climate change its in your best interest to not confuse them.

Look healthy enough on visible, solid rotation on lower level clouds but most of the heavy convection is displaced off to the right of the center but may be trying to wrap around, If it can wrap around fast enough we should be able to break the 0/0/0 August we are in. Probably going to be close.

lol busting out the sock now eh? Dude sarcasm

I agree most hurricanes seasons do end after the 15th of September

Currently is looking a little rough on IR view.

Where have I heard that before?

It does suck how much summer has been reduced, I’ve seen it throughout my school experience. Ultimately I think you are correct a lot of places are heading that way, if it is pulled off well it might be ok. The snow day are way more useful and nice in several aspects than 7 extra days of summer vacation also virtual learning sucks instead of having a day off to play in the snow or hyper focus on short term changes in the hrrr as it’s falling. I will say the 14 days off fcps gives us is excessive, and now after 5 snow days it’s virtual. So why are the 14 days still built in. It’s stupid

The gfs has gone from no storms through the 15 day runtime to now showing multiple storms semi consistently within 10ish days. So while the storms are fantasy it still shows a pattern change to a more favorable environment for storms. It is showing the possibility for a reason.

I'll counter your imagine with this. It shows how the basin is becoming more active due to improving conditions.

The goalposts have been moved, getting nervous?

what site is that? I would like a link

Thank you so much for informing me about the shower, it was awesome to watch them with the new airmass in place. Also was the first time I’ve seen a shooting star and they are so cool.

Idub23 be like:

You really gonna do the CFS like that?

If there is one other time I will take a great winter pattern outside of winter it would be now.
