One thing that helped us in November 2018 was that the snow came in like a wall, went from nothing to heavy snow in a matter of 30 minutes. That setup always helps b/c by the time the warm midlevels arrive the bulk of the precip has fallen.
Amen, we've only had an inch at a time this winter so a few inches would be like a HECS. LOL. Currently partly sunny here and 62. We've had colder days in April!
the cool down is starting to look legit, however there will be a crazy MTD +++ departure by 1/15. Some will obviously get erased depending on the extent of the pattern change,.
turned out it was-I think we had 3-4 inches after the pattern broke down in early February....it never reloaded, just became warm and dry which was a god send with 50 inches of snow on the ground....imagine if a bunch of cutters had set up ala Jan 96?
Always true, however there is history, 06-07 when from blowtorch to freezer for the 2nd half. 89-90 was freezer to blowtorch. So it's on the table. But I agree, there's nothing at present to show that.
Weeklies have been horrid last 2 years, so I would toss them even if it showed a 95-96 pattern. Last year it showed that every run for the LR and it never came.
