  1. Still early but I get it...stinks around here
  2. Last few years-Amazing how the cold is always muted when it actually gets here. But in this case it's good-the cold that was modeled a week ago would almost certainly be mainly dry/cold/windy. We have a few weeks of slightly below to below normal temps which is great for snow chances.
  3. I haven't watched a local TV newscast/weathercast in years
  4. Even at that, at least around here we had snowcover straight through 3/1...the warmup after the snows was mostly dry so the pack slowly melted which was also good from a flooding standpoint. We did get a 3 inch refresher president's day weekend as well.
  5. I'm not complaining...just need it cold enough, too cold and you get suppression.
  6. they must be looking at last week's models which showed a more historic cold outbreak especially in the midwest....models have moved away from that so it's weird they (media) are still hyping it....
  7. A phase with what? The low zips east off Norfolk VA
  8. Way too much reliance on LR maps from OP models...crazy to see day 15 maps posted regularly....
  9. Some of those years it was like skiing on ball bearings as it had rained and then gotten cold. Snowmaking wasn't what it is now either...
  10. Happens. Hopefully we can cash in on something as the pattern relaxes a bit-but the chances for multiple storms appears to be dropping
  11. Not this time-will be down to shaded spots and north facing areas by sunset-we only had a coating on the 21st too.
  12. the "cold" was muted and didn't last all that long-we spent all last winter chasing it and we got 2 short periods of cold in a sea of warmth...what's different this year is we have had early cold and some lights snows...so there's hope for a more prolonged pattern this winter.
  13. I used to do that as a kid in the 80's. Snow was so rare you had to save whatever you got.
  14. Some will melt with temps in the upper 30's later guess it depends on whether we get sun or not...
  15. Thx...so on Saturday they did measure when the snow stopped around 8-9 AM for the final amt?
  16. Sounds like Bridgeport-they seem to undermeasure snow. Blizz of 96 they had 14 inches-most surrounding areas had 20-24
  17. On another board someone said they measure at 7am and that's it. Even if it's still snowing which it was the other day-that's outrageous.
  18. Beautiful! that one pic with the sun behind the cloud is similar to when I was there 3 yrs ago. We had snow inland too-but rain in the city and near the airport on the last day...no above ground power lines too much wind.
  19. It's crapshoot at best....you never know what's going to gum up the works as we draw closer... for example how many times in the last 5 yrs have we seen the MJO shoot back out into the unfavorable phases unexpectedly?
