Hot take: I'd rather have a snowy March than a snowy December
-
Yeah, and it's not like it was just some abstraction that we have to accept on faith. The big synoptic storms have been there. The cold air was around.
-
If it weren't for the lofty potential, I'd have been ok with this month locally. 5.5" of snow over a few events. Nothing legendary, but far from the worst December in recent times.
-
I won't be satisfied until we completely eliminate blue thickness lines from this domain.
-
I don't think there's enough involvement with the PV lobe to count as a third phasing vortmax.
-
I enjoy a good anomalous warmth event. Not my first choice, naturally, but still interesting. -
A sub-960mb low over the lakes would be pretty epic.
-
It was a sneaky Currier & Ives morning with 1.0" of pasty snow glinting in the sunlight, and mist in the glens and hollows. All a distant memory now, of course. 35/35
-
The Gulf of Alaska shortwave is quite a bit flatter too, more reminiscent of yesterday's big runs.

0.6" new snow in central Dutchess since the changeover around 5 pm. -
OK but not that tucked
-
Perfect. I was told you never want to be in the bullseye a week out.

I haven't seen any flakes here (600'). Pretty nasty weather on the whole. -
Today would have been a great track with a little deeper and more distinct low. Hopefully the Christmas Eve system is similarly tucked.
-
Speaking of unwanted light... it's blinding out there today with the full sun on the dry, cold snowcover. Shield-your-eyes type stuff.
-
Seem to have leveled off at 14 for now after an impressive descent earlier in the evening. Just the slightest breeze picking back up as I watch for Geminids. Beautifully clear night... shame about the moon coming up to wash out the fainter meteors.
-
Wow, nice. Only 13F here.
-
They never do, but you got as close as one could hope for. Nice shots.
-
2.1" will probably do it. I was hoping for 2" all week, and I got there. Makes the lights look real nice.
-
Well, maybe. Drying on radar looks rather final.
-
About an inch here. Pavement is still just wet in most areas in my 'hood, but that should change pretty quickly as night goes on.
-
My daily min was 51 yesterday. Impressive.
-
Look on the bright side... it won't be this warm again until 12/25
-
Crappy patterns make me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Everyone shares equally in the misery and there are no winners and losers. Take a storm like Boxing Day, and 6 out of 10 people are disappointed, but their commiseration is smothered by the rejoicing of the other 4. *Our* suffering, comrade.

Shaping up to be quite the rainy December.
