Oh I know what game he’s talking about. The game against Miami the pats defense shut Miami down and the fans were throwing snowballs in the air

Wasn’t that against the Titans? When he threw for like 5 or 6 TDs.

When I think of snow around the holidays in New England, I don’t think about Christmas or Christmas Eve, I think of Tom Brady destroying the Titans in the snow. That’s our white Christmas right there.

100% agreed on that.

majority of snowfall climo is like January/February

Of course it can...but there is a false expectation that snow on Christmas or a "snow covered ground" on Christmas is common or normal. That is probably more true of northern New England but it's an expectation that is way overblown.

It's a fantasy that's been embedded into our heads because of Christmas movies.

There'll certainly be a system moving through, just a matter of how much QPF will be with it. Only real moisture source will probably be as it moves across the Lakes. Don't think there is much room to ingest some ATL moisture or tap into any Gulf Moisture to enhance QPF.

It's still a weakening system on the euro

But it is...when you get past the QPF/snow maps there was nothing ever really impressive looking about this system or anything to indicate this is more than a frontal system moving through. There was nothing to indicate or anything suggestive there was or could be room for shortwave amplification.

Tuesday is nothing more than a weak and weakening frontal system

That's gotta be pushing some record warmth within portions of the Arctic into eastern Canada in the extended range. Those anomalies are off the charts

It's pretty warm up around 2000-3000 feet. Have to watch how quickly we can cool the llvls. Not sure sfc temps right now matter too much. Still think there will be a narrow band of heavy snow but farther north than I was thinking yesterday.

I like how that map captures that narrow area from northeast Kansas into Kentucky...probably from that one "event" a few weeks back

Friday night isn't really far off from becoming something more meaningful. Probably won't happen at this stage but damn it wouldn't take much...

35. I've been making changes the last few years but I certainly have a long ways to go. I think 3 or 4 years ago I joined MDVIP program. Insurance doesn't cover this and it's expensive (like $550 every 3 months) but I love the doctor and the program and with the costs this allows for additional testing with blood work and and reduced cost for various tests. Doctor is great...yearly physical consists of two separate appointments. One is blood work then its about 90 minute exam with the doctor's aid...EKG, eye test, hearing test, grip strength test, lung capacity test, etc. Then in two weeks you visit with the doctor and he spends about 30 minutes going over the blood work results and comparing results to the previous years then he does his physical. I am at risk for heart disease when I am older...it runs rampant in my family and I did this CIMP test when looks at the size of your veins and arteries which can be a good indicator of the potential for bad cholesterol to build over time. My latest test this year had improved results from the year prior and this was a product of changing diet. I've always had a horrific diet and I've worked on that but I really need to work on the exercise.

I've actually gained like 3 or 4 pounds in the last 18 months. Unfortunately, for me though any weight gain is going to have to come from muscle versus fat. My doctor said based on my "frame type" it's unlikely I gain much weight from fat. So I have to start working out...but this is a serious must for me because I have virtually become inactive and I am losing muscle mass.

On the shoreline and just went for a walk to Dunkin...I froze. Very misleading temperature with the wind. It's certainly better than 30 but my hands froze and I couldn't wear gloves because then I wouldn't be able to catch Pokemon.

Probably not. If we were to see any increase in that department it would probably be Fall setups where we get vigorous s/w to move through sound waters unseasonably warm.

Long stretches (stretches = years) below-average snowfall and little snow for the coastal Plain. It's what we have to get used too.

Since we don't get these anymore we may need to derive some acronyms for our cutters and rain storms.

wouldn't rule that out

Temperatures are going to be a huge issue but I would think on the guidance coming in we could see a narrow, intense fronto band and that may be enough to help overcome questionable temperatures. That's a pretty sharp gradient and with developing/strengthening sfc low there should be a potent fronto band.

There could be a narrow zone of some heavy, wet snow.

Perhaps for you. Down here we'll be in 70's and 80's and watching dews climb
