That's a flat ridge, not really pumped on roids

Mint? Or Mentos?

Good, I hope you get a coating to an inch then

What storm?

Not seeing anything 'bad', unless your expectations are set at wall-to-wall snow and cold with each wave next week. Saturday night now looks 95% frozen, not much snow but whatever. Tuesday is starting to hone in on a solid 4-8"/5-10" ish type secs. Then a followup wave thurs or fri is really close with the boundary but that could go either way, then fantasy range has a signal for PD and after the 20th a window opens for a bigger 'potential' (Archabault?) As the nao rots. So yeah. If you asked me if I would take this in a Nina February I would sign on the dotted line.

Yep. Remember when I made a post 6 days or so ago when the Euro had highs in the mid 60s today for us? Changes.

I don't understand how a hobby like this is stressful? I guess people make it stressful on themselves. The weather is what it is. We just take it or leave it....there is no changing it

But look at that gradient near the city

Yep, direct hit. But 5+ days out in the jackpot?? Umm, congrats interior NY state?

That first slug was the anafront thing the models had a few days back. That is an irrelevant player imho. If we flake from it consider it a bonus.

Delayed but not denied....I can feel it in my girded loins

Turn your 18+ safe mode off for this image

Remember when the Euro had mid 60s forecast tomorrow?

Confidence is very high. Ensembles are on board, the 2 big ops are on board AND there appears to be 2 shots next week so if Tues-Wed fails which seems unlikely, we look to the weekend and the weekend rule.

Well, that was a fun happy hour.

I have a feeling alot of folks misinterpreted my posts this AM about the post feb 20 maybe being a toss up but we have a bunch of shit staring us in the face next 7 days or so. By.zero.means was that complaint nor a knock on any individual. I even put a comment that it would be funny to reach climo over the next 10 days then flip to a relax after that. Was more a knock on our ens systems at range and also a reminder to look in front of us and not into deep fantasy. By all means, bring the snow threats now. Would much rather have them next week than looking beyond and just hoping. Now as you were.

Euro is a mecs btw:

The incomparable NAVGEM:

One of these years we will learn to only focus on 5 days ...maybe 7 at most and not the fantasy range

We'll see what happens I guess. Others are saying things are lining up perfectly still for the 2nd half of Feb. Really think the SPV split thing screwed our pattern change up but I'm probably imagining it.

I also think maybe the old adage 'guidance is about a week or so too fast and rushing the pattern change' may have been in err this time. Like someone else said, 3 tracking events next 8-10 days or so....you bet I will savor it and be tracking my ass off.
