  1. The flow was similar to what's progged on models. It was super cold after that Clipper. One of the few times (only?) it snowed Aspen type powder here. The wind blew most of it away (and sublimated) the following day even though it was 7-8 inches here and stayed in the low 20s the day after.
  2. I don't disagree with any of this. Most of your examples had robust shortwaves though and we are not seeing that in the long range yet. We might need a lee trough super Clipper scenario to score in the leeside areas. But that was an El Niño winter https://products.climate.ncsu.edu/weather/winter/event/
  3. Look at that snow predicted over the open Atlantic
  4. The operational. From hour 150 on really. It might be setting up for something better after 16 days if we can get a 50/50 low to setup in the NE
  5. The Euro trough is not what you want to see for snow. Way too far NE.
  6. The upcoming pattern looks similar to the one we had in early December.. not a snow pattern.
  7. That trough needs to be further west or it's cold, dry and windy for most of the SE.
  8. Merry Christmas, I wished for snow this winter!
  9. Split flow with an active subtropical jet please
  10. I would normally agree with you but the past 3 or 4 winters have had a parade of storms cutting West of us with the SE Ridge flexing.
  11. La Nina cold usually dumps in the northern plains so it makes sense.
  12. The Operational models are backing off the cold already. If the ensembles start to follow it could be another case of misled hope.
  13. Cold, dry NW flow. Trough orientation still too far NE. Mountains will have chances with clippers and NW flow but the rest of us will be dry unless that trough orientation changes and we can fire up the subtropical jet.
  14. Got some rain and graupel falling in Asheville
  15. Hi Res NAM looks like one of the best upslope snows this season
  16. Big time lightning and thunder here in Asheville. Super nasty clouds and now heavy rain
  17. Nothing says winter in the mountains like hail in December!
