    That was awful. Mountains from SC north got buried
  2. Terpeast
    Every month from dec-mar yielded more than 2” imby
  3. Terpeast
    2.0”, still snowing lightly. Above freezing now so some melting and compaction. Just got back from sledding with daughter!
  4. Terpeast
    Looks more like a winter wonderland than feb 22 ever did
  5. Terpeast
    Haven’t officially measured, but eyeballing close to 1.5”, finer flakes falling
  6. Terpeast
    Moderate snow, looks like radar backfilling to the west, not as heavy as initial band. Close to 1" at 30.6
  7. Terpeast
    Half inch already. I may break 16" on the season if this continues for another 30 min
  8. Terpeast
    Now it is coming down heavy, big fatties!
  9. Terpeast
    Now below freezing at 31.8, mulch and car tops caving. Grass getting dusted too
  10. Terpeast
    Snow coming down nicely
  11. Terpeast
    Light snow, good flakes. 33.8 and falling
  12. Terpeast
    I'm at 35, but dews at 19. Wet bulb temp is still below freezing

    28.8/17. Guess this time we’re not chasing moisture with cold air
  14. Terpeast
    I’d say that Jan 26 forecast verified well overall, except it was too warm for the SE.
  15. Terpeast
    Didn’t check dca, but iad was about -3 for the 3 months (relative to 1991-2020 climo I believe)

    Amazing for you guys up there. While luck wasn’t on our side in the mid-atlantic, NYC’s winter and the NC HECS gives me even more conviction that the MA is not yet done with HECS potential and blockbuster winters like 95-96 and 09-10, etc.

    I have a hard time envisioning the physics that link a SSW to a subsequent el nino (or la nina). I imagine the top-down effects would be confined mainly to the polar domain or mid latitudes, but not tropics. Conversely, enso is driven mainly by tropical ocean-atmosphere (KWs and WWBs mostly) and then those forcing effects propagate to mid- and polar-latitudes via rossby waves, and then bottom-up into the stratosphere. But the other way around? I dunno.

    I think we enjoyed last year more. More powdery and lots more sledding. This time it was tough, hard/fast sledding and my daughter got a bit scared. We did make a killer igloo though!
  19. Terpeast
    Yeah, we had cold and no real torch this winter. Snowcover was great. And the atmosphere threw some HECS, but they both missed. We only needed one direct hit, and it would have changed the entire picture.
  20. Terpeast
    Wow, the color scheme really brings out our luck (or lack thereof) this winter. It could have been one for the ages, but we did not have luck on our side. That won’t last forever though. It’ll flip at some point.
  21. Terpeast
    Why would it?
  22. Terpeast
    Bring it. Good time to put netting over my fig tree so the squirrels don't steal all my figs like they did last fall.

    On a CWG post on facebook I saw a quote from Wes Junker saying that the atmosphere doesn't really support a storm here, the models are "overcooking" it rn. Upside is only a dusting and maybe a few lucky inches. He's one I respect and knows what he's talking about, so that dampened any remaining enthusiasm for tracking this (not that I had much to begin with).
  24. Terpeast
    At least maybe we go straight into severe wx tracking
  25. Terpeast
    Probably the last trackable event of the year. If it comes to fruition, it may get me to my median climo. Once again, I’m waiting until lead times of 84-96 hours or less to really buy in.
