  1. I know my post last night was a bit oversimplified.lol Of couse getting a good storm is not that easy(see March 2014). But last Nov. and Dec., we had some nice opportunities. And with a similar active pattern, especially in Jan. and Feb., we could do well storm wise.
  2. I've noticed a few early winter discos around the board. Because it's never too early to discuss next winter lol. For us it's pretty simple. Provide enough moisture and energy from the STJ, and eventully a big storm will hit. As long as it's cold enough when the time calls for it, were good.
  3. Mabey it's just perception, but what's happened to the classic squall line with the passage of a cold front. I remember when I was younger, the entire wnw sky black with the approach of a long line of storms. It just seems like we rarely get a solid line of storms approaching from the west.
  4. Some of that cooler air over in Philly would be nice right now. I miss having central a\c.
  5. Looks only 3/4 full at Pnc Park tonight. Pens game kinda stole the Pirates national TV thunder.
  6. Interesting belated fact. 3.1" of snow fell on may 9th 1966. That would be alot of snow on april 9th, let alone may. And tying that into our past odd winter. The last daily recorded snowfall over 3" was January 25th.
  7. In a winter dominated by cold air, it was never around when needed. Starting with the storm before Thanksgiving, all the way through today... Go eff yourself PV, thanks for nothin'. lol
  8. At least you can say the season has been consistent. Plenty of moisture, no cold air. Cold air, limited moisture. However I am a bit bullish on the first half of April.
  9. I'm sorry this pattern is B.S. Every snow event has trended downward this month. I almost gaurantee though, that the rain forecasted later this week will verify spot on. #idontgivea****whatyouthink
  10. Ok, getting suppresed again sucks, but whatever. My real gripe, is the fact that many in the mid-atlantic have had the best of both worlds this month. At least twice now, they've had golfing weather one day, then heavy snow the next. Meanwhile here in Pgh the few decent days we've had, have been like walking around in the high desert with all the dirt and dust blowing around. Lots of fun. That's fine, I'm still holding out hope for the big inland runner that buries sw pa. Winter is far from over.
  11. It's pretty amazing how many times this pattern has tried to recapture that feb 2010 magic, at least on paper. Just shows how difficult it is getting all the pieces in place, for a snowstorm.
  12. Robinson was fouled on that lay up at the end. He should've had a chance to tie the game. I've seen lesser contact called a foul, on those types of plays. Oh well, that's Pitt.
  13. Yesterday Pitt won and our storm fell apart. Mabey a Pitt loss brings the storm back, as the the team travels home early. No, that's not it either. We lose the storm, and Pitt loses in the last seconds again. Damn this winter. Lol
  14. My congrats to the many long range winter forecasts for Pgh 2013-2014. They stated above average snow, with a low likelihood of a large storm. Never thought we'd get nickeled and dimed to 60" though. Lol
  15. Unfortunatly, this system turned out to be either, all snow from the start, then nothing. Or all rain from the start, then snow, possibly heavy in spots. The earlier concept of two significant waves of snow, was not realistic. That forecast had such a thin margin for error.
  16. These thread the needle storms, that come in two or three waves, are more trouble than they're worth. Basically from here on out, it's Miller A, inland runners or bust.
  17. Where's that damn SE ridge when we need it. Lol. Anyway, it is looking like fringe city once again. But I'm staying onboard, for better or for worse.
  18. Crazy scene in Chicago, should be fun. The Pens winter classics have been snow, rain, now snow again.
  19. Hi everybody. Go............ But seriously, thanks for getting our thread back and running. I guess take it easy with getting too personal with the arguements. But with plenty of Wx and sports the next few months, there should be lots to discuss.
