  1. Let’s hope it’s a trend. This model is currently on its own.
  2. Anyone still talking about this? Looking at the first to weeks of February of the GFS it's gonna be bitter cold.
  3. Who was expecting 1-2 inches of fresh powder this morning?
  4. A nice light snow globe snow falling out there while walking the dog.
  5. Yesterday’s 2-4 event was just as fulfilling as last weeks 9 inch snowfall. Like Ritual said, no precip type issues. No dry slot. Various snowfall rates and during the day so you get to enjoy seeing it fall. I say this all the time that if we get heavy snow overnight and you wake up to it already on the ground then it’s not the same just shoveling. I want to see it and be out in it. So tonight we get a couple more inches and then maybe another come weekend. I am thinking with this setup and cold we could be looking at several more clippers and even a surprise that springs up the coast. Just enjoy it!
  6. Tuesday's system looks to be diving in stronger on the Canadian. Maybe some heavier bursts then.
  7. Yes a nice little clipper. One of my favorite types of systems. 1-2 inches of steady light snow all afternoon. No mixing issues.
  8. Canadian on Sunday looks like a light 1 inch snowfall as well. Tuesday is starting to look like a gusty cold front that may bring some squalls and another cold shot for Wed Thurs.
  9. Yes the GFS looks to give us 1-2 and the NAM 1 inch or less for Sunday. The good news is we will get some steady light snow during the day which is always nice so you can watch it fall. Let's see what the Canadian says and then maybe something can come of a mid-week phaser-type storm.
  10. GFS looks pretty good with 3 clipper-like systems coming through on Sunday, Tuesday and later in the week. Let's hope they can pan out and we get something. Heck I'd take three 1-3 inch snowfalls haha
  11. This shows up well on the Canadian. The only one thus far but may be sniffing on to something. We'll see if it continues at 12z.
  12. Just took out the dog. Winds are howling and temps are starting to fall. 35 degrees. Icy Roadways Possible Overnight Across the Region... Rapidly falling temperatures behind a cold front combined with earlier snowmelt could result in icy conditions / areas of black ice along untreated roadways and surfaces overnight. Motorists and those out and about are urged to use extra caution.
  13. I think Snow cover is overrated and I don’t worry much about it anymore. We should still have a few inches on the ground tonight and nice cold for the Weekend to set up our next storm early next week.
  14. The NAM did a great job of nailing this storm. (I also did not want to believe it when all along it was the only model defining the dry slot and mixing. We all fall into the trap of rooting for the model that scores best for our area and throwing out the worst) For all the old-timers like myself I always remember the "great Joe DeNardo" saying he never started quoting snow amounts until 24-48 hours before a storm and this is why. Now TWC and all the local mets are posting model maps that are all over the place with snow totals and it gets the public and all of us excited and scared for a storm. There is more than a snow map on a model and we all know how our topography factors in. As much as some of us our disappointed the NWS knows more than us and they were not perfect but the 1-3 and 5-9 overnight ended up pretty decent calls. After the way this winter has gone ... I have 7-8 inches of snow on the ground and in the air and it's cold. Let's enjoy it till the next one.
  15. 3 additional inches overnight. 6 inches so far. I’m guessing another 1-3 possible this morning. Wind is howling. It’s cold
