Scraff

My bar is set at dusting to an inch. Think that’s reasonable. And in other bar news, I’ll be at the Columbia Alehouse drinking Founders CBS while it’s hopefully puking white asteroids.

Snow depth map vs. the 10-1 is just crazy in how different it is. Could be a lot of frozen precip (i.e., sleet, frza) on top of any snow.

Depth:

10:1

I’m lovin, touchin, and squeezin the 10:1 map.

Euro, if real, looks terrific. 3-6 inches across the metro area. We take and sprint.

It doesn’t even have to stick to the roads, but the green grass turning white will be a sight for sore eyes. Fingers remain crossed though.

Keep pushing that bowling ball south!

If the next Euro ticks it even just a smidge further south...

Just looked at the 0z euro. Holy cow it’s a stone cold assassin. Looks substantially colder than the GFS and makes the flip back to snow/mix Friday morning with the ULL pass. 

How’s the Euro look for the likes of you, me, and @osfan24? Think we can score 1-2? Will I see you at the top of the sledding hill?

Yes, EURO is a good run many given the time of year. I'm sure many would lock it up.  

This does all get washed away though.

Be great to just get on the board early.  Can we get a shift south though for Eastern HoCo. I don’t want to be that “FRINGED” guy.

Fv3 is acceptable!

Hells yes! Lock it in!! 

Great write up @showmethesnow per the norm. Thank you! And with the possible NAO tanking, it seems it’s not really a question of its going to snow, just a matter of when.

Thanksgiving looking warm in the last few runs of GFS.  That is my unofficial totally unscientific benchmark.  Christmas will be warm.  I can feel it in my bones.  

Always trust the GFS 12 days out.

Interesting.

 

How great would it be score in November? Rare, but we know it does happen. Fingers and toes crossed...and whatever else I can cross? Hmmmm....going into deep thunder think mode.

That was about my reaction when I took a quick glance as well. But who are we to argue with Dr No when he says snow? 

Too soon?

Whoa! 

All I know is that the GFS spits out 4 decent looking storms through hour 384. A 5th one is incoming just beyond that. It’s a beautiful sight if we can get repeats late November and into December and beyond.

Regarding the forum discussion, in college, I liked snow. I still like snow. If you ask me if I have ever seen a whiteout, I'll reply, "Have you?!?"

Regarding the beer discussion, my local beer Jesus (if you saw him and spoke to him, you'd understand) suggested the Yeti Imperial Stout, now in six packs instead of four packs at a reasonable price, or the seasonal Sierra Nevada Narwhal Stout. I went with the Sierra Nevada because it is seasonal and I think they are an under-rated brewery. Also reasonably priced and good.

On the homebrew front, I'll be legging my imperial pumpkin ale this weekend and it'll be ready next weekend for anyone that wants to stop by and not talk politics. There's also a New England IPA and a cream ale on draft.

The beer geeks in here need to get together soon. Since I independently rep Key, Duclaw, Hysteria, True Respite, and Charm City Mead, we might have a few things to chat about...and drink. 

Let’s Gooooooo Mountaineers!! And let’s go this...

This was posted on Twitter by Mike Masco. I’ll take this look and run with it...

You must be so much fun at parties. 

Will there be blizzard parties in the Jeb caves?  Oh wait. In TX? Never mind. Carry on. I was going to supply the beer! But forget it now.

About to be pummeled with a svr warned storm at the Elkridge/Columbia line. Looks mean and nasty. I like it....a lot!

Looks like a nice storm hitting my yard currently.  Here in N. Myrtle there's a line of  storms about 40 miles to the west ...hoping to get some action tonight 

I’m in N Myrtle too! Got some good storms last night for sure.

Actually not as high on our chances now. That area around DC hasn't advanced much and seems to pressing east a bit. Probably going to end more over the bay than in the Baltimore area, and all that stuff down by Richmond is going well east. Looks like it's our turn to miss out this week.

Damn it!  What a shame. We could really use some rain for the drought stricken areas of Howard County. We haven’t had a drop rain since 7 seconds ago.

Quick note out of summer hibernation. Where the hell was this storm back in January!?  Would have easily been named something dumb by the Weather Channel. 

See you all soon for El Niño.

I’m in Philly so I need a classic Philly jackpot.

Nah. But NE MD will get pummeled! 

ETA: But if my power goes out during the Caps game, my imaginary cat will be punted off my deck. 

I remember having the neighbors over that evening. I was splitting my time between the raging excitement on this board vs. the excitement of 4 bottles of world class wine that we plowed through.. Hurting the next AM, the fresh snow cleared my head in an instant. The kids and I had a blast just playing and shoveling all morning. Good times for sure.

To make myself feel better knowing that we may never see another week like Snowmegeddon 1&2, I still go back and watch this.  I promise it will put smile on all the faces.
