Well I’m almost done with my igloo. Gonna finish the dome up top and maybe wrap it a bit more if I have time. Went purely using common sense and in retrospect I should have angled the pieces earlier to make a shorter igloo with a more complete dome. But it’s cool I can stand in there and the kids are having a blast.

Well we’re not wasting it. I have a bullet proof snow pack and an igloo in my front yard.

25 degrees in full sun, what an amazing run of cold. How many days a year do we usually get in the 20s? It feels like barely any and we’re just stringing them together. Also, the amount of snow and the size of the piles is crazy, 9 inches of powder would not look like this. 9 inches of the densest snow/sleet combo known to man hits different 4 days later.

cmc also bumped nw almost gives dc qpf, not giving up hope on a pack refresher.

That’s actually a pretty big jump NW, but I guess this model is even less useful than the GFS. But you’d think there are some big hits in there to get the mean near 5 inches in dc.

I think it’s gonna be cold and the long wave pattern is good and it’s our prime climo. Hopefully stuff pops up!

ICON with a nice bump NW, coastal areas back in play. Maybe we can back into some light snow at least?

It is look better this run, not sure if it would be enough to matter for us.

NAM digging that vort a bit more west lolololol, couldn’t help myself

That’s good, low single digits is pipe bursting weather. man this snowpack is bulletproof. Have we ever had a colder stretch after a storm than this?

If the models bring this back for us, even a 2-4 inch deal…would be awesome. It’s downright arctic out here we have bodies of water freezing, massive piles of snow and sleet everywhere. You have an absolute bullet proof glacier of snowpack. Adding even a touch of powder on that would be fantastic.

Guess this one is about cooked! Well pattern still looks pretty ripe going forward and no big torches imminent so I’m sure there will be more chances.

It’s so tantalizing to have a 978 that close to us when we’re in a massive outbreak…

The confluence backed north a little at hour 54, maybe a little less suppressive ?

This is what I liked about the EPS this morning, the 90 hour 6-he qpf map has beefier precip further west into southern va and western nc.
