It’s just the HRRR making us all share. Area wide 2”+ among friends would boost morale.

I'm waiting for the wxbell map. Pivotal has been far too brutal

Snow TV will be nice at least.

Ahem 

Brutal cutoff. 

I was staying in Asheville for the last eclipse and drove to Sylva, NC (short distance away) and traffic was crazy both in/out of the path of totality.  Plan for busy roads day of if you’re driving that day.  

Garrett/Western Allegany/Western Mineral counties have a WSW now.

Yeah but PD is starting to look like a rug pull and if the temp map posted earlier verifies there's freakish warmth to close out the month. Which kills the chance for the 24th.

 

Yes the region got a good bit of accumulation on the 2nd day of Spring in 2018 but how often does that happen?

That’s a 2 week OP temp map…it’s not worth even looking at.  I don’t think anyone can confidently say what will happen the next few weeks.  We’ve had plenty of snow in March in the last 10 years.

Also ordered my glasses yesterday! If I chicken out and don’t go anywhere I at least want to be able to stare at the sun for a bit

You need to go ‘chase’ and see the path of totality.  It’s breathtaking and just amazing.  It’s night/day (punny) compared to even 95% coverage.

So is it safe to say that this year being AN for the metros is off the table?

I would definitely not say that at all.  I’m halfway to average and I could easily hit above normal with one storm.

My tulips just pushed through the mulch yesterday. 

They’ll get spooked by our typical March of low 40s and raining.

Our crocuses have been in bloom for a week and a few Daffodils are ready to open their flowers.  Yesterday was great weather to get some yard work done to get the flower beds ready for spring.  I need the garden thread @mattie g!

Family and I are going to my in-laws in Saranac NY, just outside of Plattsburgh. Just bought 10 pairs of eclipse sunglasses. 

Got our glasses a few days ago.  I learned my lesson from last time when I waited too long and paid an arm and leg for them.

Doesn't quite come together but not far off.

That was pretty close to phasing between the two streams.  Of course, the deb crowd will say it wasn’t close.

We got an AirBnB on the Canada side of Niagara Falls. I went to NC for the last full eclipse and it was so worth it. Can’t wait!

Did someone hack Yoda’s account?

And many others only see the path to failure.

 

My wag is the GEFS will look better than 06z for PD weekend. Not sure why we are looking past that threat.

12z CMC is garbage for Presidents Day after 00z showed a C VA into N NC snowstorm

Aka don’t trust OP models beyond 3-4 days. 

CAPE is like the LR thread therapist trying to talk reason in the sea of panic posts.  That thread would be a disaster without him.

What a beautiful day (unfortunately spent all day in the office)...these days have me almost ready to just move on from winter and get spring going.

A West-based NAO born and raised
Over Greenland was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
And all blockin' the arctic airmass pool

When a couple of highs who were up to no good
Started suppressing waves in my neighborhood
I got one southern slider and Ji got scared
He said, "You're movin' winter back to March it's not fair"

Friends. If the epic advertised patterns don't deliver, the important thing? Is that we blame each other. VICIOUSLY. I'm keeping a list of who to blame:

-optimists

-skeptics

-realists

-debs

-people who start threads

-people who refuse to start threads

-people who protest threads

-people who post

-lurkers

-all people with any interest in weather both on and off this forum
