  1. Is this a snowstorm pattern for Mid-Atlantic or Northeast? Looks like it could be temp window before warmup.
  2. The sheer number of massive snowstorms to hit East Coast from 2006-2016 was historically anomalous and I wonder if climate change could have driven these outcomes. NYC had 20+ inch storms at least a half dozen times in this period when the previous hundred years they had two.
  3. December 2009 was an aberration in the past fifteen years. 2016 blizzard saved that season but so did February 2006 and 2003. I would rather long track a Big Dog than wait for a few paltry events. Just don’t know if climate change overwhelms perfect pattern.
  4. Do you expect a wet pattern this winter in desert Southwest including Las Vegas?
  5. Does this have any similarities to December 2009 or am I just hallucinating?
  6. Believe Mitch was sustained 180mph with 905 pressure.
  7. That would tie it with Camille which also got down to 900mb at one point. I think Gilbert was a little stronger at landfall in Central America. Would not shock me one bit if Lee sustained at 190mph with sub900 pressure.
  8. What experimental Euro are they using? How does it differ from EPS?
  9. After the debacle in Fort Myers last year surrounding late ordered evacuations, Tampa metro has to be very concerned about storm track and surge threat. Weren’t Zone A and B evacuated last year before Ian took a more southerly track? Tough decisions ahead.
  10. Veterans Day 1987. I was 10 years old and school was first delayed and then cancelled. My father and I went out to run some errands and it took us over three hours to get home in raging snowstorm leaving a foot of snow. No cell phones back then and my Mom was ready to call the hospitals if we had not gotten home soon.
  11. The humidity on East Coast is getting more miserable and unbearable each summer. Grew up in Virginia suburbs of DC in the 1980s and 1990s and it is way more uncomfortable now compared to then. Also lived a few summers out in Las Vegas and became well acclimated to the dry heat but that’s just me personally.
  12. How does last week of July look in NYC/northern Jersey temp wise and precipitation?
  13. Felt it about 3:05 sounded like a boom and house shook. No trees had fallen so wondering if it was an earthquake.
  14. Crazy dry conditions in DC area after little rain in May into early June. Even rain chances are evaporating.
  15. I cannot remember the Mid-Atlantic DC region being this dry in May into early June. Don’t know what that means heat wise and for hurricane season but worth noting.
  16. Would be absolutely stunned if snowstorm happens. Then again Veterans Day 1987.
  17. Not trying to make synoptic comparisons but did we luck into 2/12/2006? I remember that being a crappy winter and then that storm comes out of nowhere seemingly as I think the Japanese model showed it happening.
  18. That was a very cold pattern. Two ice storms for DC area. Does this pattern resemble?
  19. Toronto reminds me a lot of Chicago from a cold and snow perspective. Spent four years up at Northwestern on the Chicago lakeshore 1996-2000. Only one massive snowstorm in January 1999. A fair amount of subzero lows and nasty windchills which corresponds to my annual February trips up to Toronto. In fact Chicago weather prepared me well.
  20. How unusual is it for West Coast sopping rains in a La Niña?
  21. The West Coast looks like an El Niño with atmospheric River and East Coast can’t catch a break. Is this going to be a 1983 big storm redux or 1998 shutout pattern?
  22. How would this Chicago storm compare to 1967, 1979, 1999? More wind and power outages I assume. Can’t wait for Tom Skilling and WGN forecast maps.
  23. Could be Tom Skilling of WGN Super Bowl of storms. Having gone to school at Northwestern ‘96-2000, I saw how excited he got about January ‘99 snow that dropped nearly 22 inches at O’hare. Rooting for Chicago record!!
  24. What does it show? I believe Christmas 1983 was coldest in DC. High 14 Low 3.
  25. I did not want to mention that storm from 12 years ago by name. Actually was living in northern New Jersey at the time where we cashed in. Back in NOVA now.
