18z GFS is a christmas miracle but south wins again lol (move this to digital snow thread if need be mods)

Where do I sign up for this? South gets a foot but Dale City gets 7 and the last time I looked that's a White Christmas! I hope with all that is in me, that Penhook gets annihilated with 19. Bob Chill can drive that red tractor with a blade and pile all that snow 35 feet high!

Penhook is the new North Central Maryland, or even the new Alleghenies.

My wife and our family went rural in 2010 and never looked back.  I agree with everything you said, Bob.

As far as the driving, it isn't bad.  My mom and dad live outside Atlanta and were telling me that they like having a grocery store a couple miles away rather than 10 miles like me.  In reality though, it takes them 15 minutes to go the 2 miles and it takes me 10 minutes to go the 10 miles, so who lives closer to the grocery store?  Plus, the scenery is far more enjoyable on my ride!

Kyle/Buda TX is experiencing runaway construction. We are building far faster than Dubai in the UAE. By 2035 this place will be far worse than Dale City ever was. Taxes will be sky high. Traffic will be impenetrable and it will take hours and hours to get thru all the traffic lights just on 1626. Crime is on the geometric rise down here. People are becoming extremely weird at night. I see strange stuff all the time out at night delivering. I am scared to death because my physical health is in an aerodynamic scream. I won't have to worry about 2035. Groundwater will run out and water will be far more expensive than gas. There is no hope at all. Poor people like me can see the writing on the wall. It's obvious. The rich are getting out while they can. This entire region all around Austin is turning into a midden. They won't stop til every tree is gone and we are one big unhappy city like Coruscant in Star Wars. That's where we are heading. No way out. 

Been nice knowin' y'all. It was a nice ride. The end won't be.

Jebman checkin' on out. Very happy for ya Bob Chill. You did everything right, made all the correct decisions. I didn't. Wish I could change it but its too late for me. Writing's on the wall, now. I wore myself out walkin around and chasing snow and arctic weather and other ridiculous stuff. Now I am all played out and all washed up. I should never came back. Clubber Lang in Rocky III was an extremely wise man in what he said to Rocky. Too bad I never learned from it in time.

Anyhow, Mid Atlantic is in an epic season. You guys don't know it yet. West resorts are going under, because that Ridge will stay in place til August 2026. You guys are gonna FREEZE. It's gonnabe 1977 vodka cold but with a decent side of 2013-2014. Snow is gonna pile up all over Virginia, not just in Richmond. You all are gonna start out the New Year with brokebacks because of digging snow and that will only be a point to what remains: One frigid Siberian winter that will just never end, snow after snow after snow after snow and people fighting for parking spots and fighting for scraps left at the stores which will be utterly out of food because so many storms and not enough time to resupply. This winter, the Winter of 2025-2026, is what they never told you about. Now it is upon you. It's going to stay super cold and it will be weather system after weather system after weather system. It's gonnabe one of George BM's fevered snow blizzard dreams come true but it will be all too real.

You'll all find out soon enough.

This has been a Jebman Exclusive.

Carry on.

That puppy has got a LOT of snow and it has got its eyes right on the Mid Atlantic!

Wow this may well be another 2013-2014 for you all!!!

I've been saying it. I've been saying it.

You are getting storm after storm after storm and the semipermanent ridge out west will keep shellacking you with arctic front after arctic front after arctic front!

My atmosphere and weather is Thursday morning and y'all might need to keep me in your thoughts after writing out what I need to study. 

Snowin Out There, no need to worry. You got this BIG-TIME! Your posts about developing upper air dynamics are so well done you need RED TAGGED already! NWS mets better start takin notes from you!

Snowshoe is getting totally demolished by torrential snow! The Alleghenies are experiencing shellacking snow conditions right now!

Snowshoe is getting smashed by snow and they are REALLY making a ton of it as well!

Lol. I was just sitting here wondering what our weather would be like if the mountains weren't there...

You guys would really get demolished by arctic fronts. But you'd get more snow from northern stream energy, too.

It's getting refreshingly cool down here. It is about 29 degrees, 26 dewpoint at 4.28am Texas time. This is our 1st official low in the 20s lol.

NWS hoisted a FREEZE WARNING for lows near 30.

This may be a Nina, but I have a feeling about this winter, especially in the East. Particularly the Mid Atlantic.

If I was visiting in northern central MD sign me up for this solution right now!

Finished with 4.25...

Last flake fell just after midnight , now its perfectly clear and temp of 19 ... Icy look to the snow..

Look at those SPARKLES! Back in the Day years ago, the sparkles were what often made me yell woooooo-hooooooo so loud then RUN full in the snowpack throwing up plumes of fresh dendrites as I happily ran like an overly happy dog just got out of the gate!!!! I'd SLIDE on that ICE, too wooo-hoooing all the way! Then I'd turn up the Michael Jackson on my trusty headphones and start trying to dance like Jackson right on the ice out of sheer happiness so great I felt my heart would burst with pure JOY!

I can still remember those days, even thru my knee hurting and now my damn NECK.

It's an equation for summing all of the projected snowfall for a given forecast period, along with accounting for compaction.

Thanks, Disc. That's a very complicated-looking equation!

Walked back to my dorm and it started moderately snowing again with some decent flakes. Was so nice I ended up lying down and taking a jeb hammock nap for 30 minutes! It just wants to snow 

Right on both counts. You can afford to miss the snow because the snow gods have the Mid Atlantic in their sights this winter and there is going to be so much snow that many snow enthusiasts are going to be so tired of snow they will be snoozing  a lot this winter. Also, because they will be so exhausted from shoveling snow tallies approximately 400 percent above normal in many communities. Congrats! Enjoy the snow! There will be tremendous amounts of snow this entire low sun season! This is destined to be a Brobdingnagian snow winter in the entire Mid Atlantic!

A foot of ice is on my bucket list. I'd take a 12" ice storm over a 12" snow storm but that's just me

Classic sigline.

CONGRATS on the snow! Pics look excellent!

Hey Disc what is that 97th Century equation in your sig? What's it for?

Radar looks really good up in parts of northern Virginia right now! There is a lot of precip to the west heading straight east to the DC region. Might want to break out those shovels. This might turn out to be a surprize overperformer!

One thing you guys need not worry about this time around: dry air. There isn't very much of that, just plenty of incoming moisture for snow.

Just had a good night delivering. I think that this might mean you guys are about to have good day snowing. And accumulating.

Not a reprimand! 

Frankly, I just want the northern crew to sound like we are used to snow and brush these misses off like a dusting on the windshield. 
 

But, yea, I’m really jelly. December snow IS special.

You betcha. The western ridge is semipermanent. Cold air will continue along with storm after storm after storm after storm after storm after storm after storm after storm after storm.

Snow gods love the Mid Atlantic this winter. You will all see soon enough! ENJOY!

Bob Chill I hope you get buried alive by fluffy snow!

You can see another area of vorticity just barely escape out ahead of our wave. 

I mean this is the GFS at hour 147 and just look at how close our waves are to creating something truly special

Instead it escapes and its all the NS doing work

Ngl for whatever reason I'm feeling this one. We got all the stuff setup at the H5 level and just need something to combine together. 

I want this SO BAD for this entire Sub. I wish there was something I could do. I want to see you all GLUED to the evolution of a super triple phaser in just the right place for the sub to get BURIED ALIVE in The Day After Tomorrow snows! Like six feet, with a trowal that forms right over the sub then refuses to flat out BUDGE for ten days! Imagine the enthusiasm up in here! I'd be so severely distracted lmao!

And it's gone. Nothing but a memory. Hopefully we get a lot more. It was an enjoyable little event. It was nice having a deep winter day in early December. 

You will. Snow gods are already smiling on the Mid Atlantic. Dec 5th snows are special and are only a taste. Wait til you see what later Dec and Jan, Feb and Morch have in store snow wise! That western ridge will become semi permanent.
