  1. You say that you ignore me because I don't make contributions. A lot of posters don't really make contributions. Do you believe that making blatantly incorrect posts is making a contribution?? You said the 18z NAM " was " better this run". Considering the significant down grade on WB I find it unlikely that Pivotol was better unless you want less snow!! Anyone can make a mistake, I believe you made one and don't have the courage to admit it. All you can do is attack others. That is very disappointing.
  2. You say the NAM was "better this run" What am I missing?
  3. This potential will affect areas along and west of the Blue Ridge, focusing on the central and southern Valley and western highlands. Tuesday night: Mostly cloudy with a 60% likelihood of snow showers after midnight. Lows of 31 - 33 Wednesday: Early snow showers tapering off, remaining mostly cloudy with highs of 35 - 40. Accumulations of a dusting to 1 inch below 2000 ft. elevation. Accumulations of 1 -3 inches, 2500 - 4500 ft. elevation.
  4. Good Luck Cape! The 18z GFS says southern suppression but there is a plenty of time!
  5. Which one of the 5 in the Atlantic on that map are you speaking of??
  6. The Euro just won't give up on 2-5 !!!!!!! 7 inches at Norfolk .......... On to 00z.
  7. The 12z GFS and now on board GEM gives Augusta 1.5 - 3.0 inches from this system at 96 - 120 Upstairs temps. look good but likely an elevation event unless we chill a few degrees.
  8. Things are looking a lot better, but parts of the Valley are still abnormally dry. My water table is still 10.68 ft. below normal according to the USGS.
  9. DT's PA Pattern died with the issuance of the 00z GFS.
  10. This was my post late yesterday after being surprised by the 18z GFS op for a few minutes. I then realized with these words that the 18z was likely trash that would not stand the test of time. I didn't call it trash at the time for obvious reasons considering the euphoria. 240+ hours is almost always fantasy land for the GFS op. The EPS still looks fine for Feb. 12 - March 12.
  11. Are we seeing something here that should not be happening??
  12. Mid January to mid March has always been the sweetspot back to 1958. I remember 1958 well because it was the first time anyone could remember Rt. 11 (The Valley Pike) being closed by drifting snow north of Harrisonburg. This was before I-81 had ever been heard of, 11 was the main north/south thoroughfare. Will we revisit 1958 this year ?
  13. The update this morning puts the ground water in better shape than in a long, long time though still abnormally dry over Augusta County.
  14. Most of my snow has melted except drifts and pushed up mounds. 54 degrees and .02" rain last night.
  15. The snowpack in those mountains around you kept you in the refrigerator.
  16. Heaven forbid!! On this day in 1967 it was 72 degrees at Staunton! The 06z GFS op. gives Boone N.C. 26 inches of snow during early Feb...... The EPS will save us!
  17. Late Sunday and Sunday night could be interesting according to the 18z GFS. Some of the blue has been pushed south and southwest.
  18. When I began looking at his thread early last Saturday morning, the "experts" were arguing about Pacific Jet Extensions. Somewhat bored with that crap I began perusing the models and ensembles. I discovered a very enticing look on the Euro Ensembles for mid February into March. Somewhat surprised that nobody was talking about it I posted a comment at 9:22 am. The rest is history. That enticing look has persisted and now we are up to March 10.
  19. Thanks for your input. The 90+ days 75 years ago are 2 - 1 more than recent years. Pre 1958 which is the 50% benchmark there were 17 90 degree + days. Post 1958 there were 7 90+ days on August 1.
  20. Thanks!! This is quite interesting, no trend since 1893. The luck of the draw with various winter patterns! My records at Staunton go back to 1893. The Staunton records clearly reveal that summers were hotter 100 years ago. More 90+ days pre 1958 than post 1958. I closely tracked this during last summer for my newsletter.
