Ralph Wiggum replied to The Iceman's topic in Philadelphia Region
Biggest event of the season right now. .3" of the white stuff and still snowing at a good rate. Same, no accum on roads but mulch and car topper. -
Also been on hold for what seems like days now. Y'all have staffing issues. I don't even remember what the heck I was calling to panic about now ffs. Going back outside to Jebwalk in this snow.

Ironically isn't this the window where ppl were saying we would torch in early Dec? Yet this would be the 3rd time already (4th total) in Dec we see flakes. Trend thus far is it wants to snow. Can't wait to see where we're at 3 or 4 weeks from now. -

3k says a few hours of snow tv monday morning -
Nice epo ridge building after day 10 on the gefs as that pac jet extension works its magic:
-
Exactly. I'm pretty certain the PAC jet extension has some positive net results for us here. Even in that graphic you can see the epo ridge building and a split flow off the W Coast.

Snifter of Nauti Hibernal Flame spiced rum....local distillery out of Cape May, NJ. Might do the seasonal thing later and have an Egg Nog with their Atlantic Bourbon.

Flurries in Telford. Is @RedSky sleeping? -
+PNA, check. -AO, check. Aleutian low, check. STJ action, check. 50/50 ridge? ....deferring to the experts on that feature. My amateur 500mb deciphering tells me that's a suppressed look but I'm probably wrong.
-
Perspective. This^^ type of panic is justified. Exagerrated, but justified. Worrying about snowflakes? Prolly nasomuch.

The most hopped up beer I like (if you would consider it as such) is St Bernardus Wit or Hacker Pschorr same style. It's not that I wont drink em, just prefer the less hoppy styles, lean towards stouts and porters. I wouldn't kick an IPA out of bed if someone offered me one, just not my go-to.
-
What's with you guys and the light-ish hoppy beers? Rasputin Imperial Stout....don't need the fridge.

It does look like a window of opportunity. One trend I've noticed this past month....when guidance has shown a coastal low at range it has generally morphed into a fropa or developed well offshore as verification. So we need to watch that to see if this also moves that direction. Saw this alot past few seasons. Could be the lag of the Nina pattern still moving into Nino looks which hopefully start to show up more as we head into late December onward. Still think we need to be patient...Nino December's aren't usually known for cold and prolific snows. -

Flurries in Ivyland. 31F -
Sounds like your pop was satisfied

Didn't we deal with a stubborn Western Atlantic Ridge in 2015-2016 until it briefly rolled over in January 2016 prior to the big storm? That feature looks persistent late in the ens means BUT also look like the pattern wants to progress right beyond this with the Aleutian low anchoring, the SW trof moving East slowly, and the Scan Ridge retrograding.
