  1. It's been said before, but modeled precip is often inflated along the periphery. You have to look at the mid-level forcing mechanisms to see where the northern deform band will set up and drop significant totals... north of that corridor, it turns into a non-event very quickly. Even if HPN jackpots, warning-criteria snowfall to I-90 seems very unlikely.
  2. Spent the morning flip-flopping between rain, sleet, and snow, but now all snow and starting to form a healthy coating on all non-paved surfaces. Likely around a half inch on the board with decent snow growth at 33/31. Visibility is low, somewhere around 3/4 mile, but fog is contributing to at least some of that reduction. edit: @gravitylover it's interesting that our wx is often so similar despite the different latitudes. That extra bit of elevation makes you an honorary north of I-84er I think.
  3. It'll be nice to enjoy C-2" tomorrow while we wait for clarity on the midweek system. The Canadian suite looked pretty sweet for most here, but of course that and a token will get you a ride on the subway...
  4. He took up landscape photography and is really good at it. Just travels the world shooting the most awesome places without ever having to worry about showing up on Monday. Jealousy.
  5. You'll note that I never clarified snow. Could be measurable anything, really.
  6. Looks lovely. You would have to think measurable or even plowable is a lock at this point. ...not to spike the football, or anything
  7. It's been incrementally throwing more moisture back NW with the past few runs, but yeah, I favor south currently. The good(?) news is that it's nowhere near Jan 16 levels even in the jackpot zone. Some poor SOB will have to make do with a measly 8-12".
  8. One thing I would not count on is 2020 paying its debts...
  9. Lots of folks in the GP talking about the big one coming next week. You can color my leery for sure. I'd like to see more guidance get on board with a more robust trough to allay fringe/weaksauce fears.
  10. Today is threatening to become a nice day. 44 with part sun, we hoodie.
  11. They're treating the roads. For what, I'm not sure.
  12. A dusting on mulch, and pickup, beds, but otherwise just wet here at 31.8. Hopefully we can scour out the stratus layer before any potential geomagnetic storming tonight.
  13. 19 here so far. Orographic cloudiness is thickening up a bit, so probably near the end of the nose-dive.
  14. Nature is healing. A full-halo on LASCO, albeit somewhat faint. That Goddard 6z/9 estimated arrival would be perfectly timed to connect with the CIR shock already en route, so maybe we'll get some nice numbers. Hopefully this cycle doesn't pick up where the last one left off with impact invariably happening at like 8 am.
  15. Many Christmas tree farms are picked over and closing for the season after unprecedented traffic in the first two weekends. Two out of three in my town have officially put an end to cutting, and the third was ready to pull the plug any time now when I spoke to the owner yesterday. An unforeseen, and I assume unforeseeable, result of the pandemic.
  16. 0.70" of rain here. That's much more than even the most aggressive model QPF I've seen in the last several days... would have been quite the snowy bust if it were colder. As it is, a wet day is a wet day for most folks, so it goes unnoticed.
  17. Agree with the sentiment but formally request subbing out Jan 16 for Feb 14.
  18. I love Land Rovers and British cars in general (Jag E-Type is probably the best-looking car ever made), but the reliability trope is real. Not sure that's inherently better than the archetypal American vehicle, with awful looks and awful build quality but a mercilessly indestructible engine.
  19. I demand proof that there exists an early 2000s British car that still starts.
  20. Did you not see anything in the late October event?
