  1. 12z mesos look dicey on central Md cloud cover. Better for NoVA and southern MD.
  2. Not sure international returns? Think you have to take that absurd contraption back to the cattle call customs line.
  3. Non-political post here…I have never agreed more with “Trump officials”
  4. Norfolk reported 0.2” of snow officially yesterday??
  5. Stronger CME should hit today sometime. So have to see how timing works out with darkness and cloud cover.
  6. Not as bright as before for me but clouds have cleared a bit and showing up faintly in my phone
  7. Clouds now but I think that previous substorm is over for the moment.
  8. Maybe in the faint edge of naked eye
  9. Maybe something here besides normal suburban sky glow?
  10. Pretty uniform temp distribution west of the Bay. Shows that this cold was advection-driven with the wind, rather than a more typical radiation-driven morning low.
  11. 29 as the low so far. Was hoping for colder.
  12. I certainly hope we get some period of productivity in January. A lot of the Ninas during the last ~10 years have had good January periods. I’m not enthusiastic on snowfall if our best patterns are early December and March.
  13. Interesting that you have a sorta different subseasonal cycle than a lot of the other forecasts. But still end up in the typical Nina dud for snowfall (which I tend to agree).

    Winter 2025-26

    The stratosphere is much more predictable than the troposphere, so the long range ensembles do have “skill” beyond the typical 8-10 day sensible weather prediction limit. I want to say there is skill to 30-40 days?? It seems guidance often tries to predict these strat warming events a little too quickly and there are can kicks, but that’s my anecdotal observation.
  15. 6z gfs right where we want it??
  16. This rain seems heavier and more widespread than what guidance was suggesting. And I’m still getting screwed.
  17. Freaking November and I’m still getting fringed with storms
  18. @CAPE enjoying this ravens O line performance?
  19. Fair point. The IOD and Nina are going to favor phases 5-6.
  20. Great thread from @griteater on the weakening early season Strat vortex and connections to a -NAO in December-ish. His two closest analogs are December 1981 and early January 1982 and December 2000. December-January 81/82 was a very cold and snowy period for our area, especially January. December 2000 was quite cold, but fairly dry without much snow.
