Just started flurrying.

1/23: 1.0 Total: 1.0

1899!

I would say we look good for a couple inches Wednesday but I'm so skiddish with the way everything has gone.

It feels like we live in the deep south and only see snow once every few years. Lol.

Heavy Snow. All surfaces covered including streets and pavements. Finally on the board!!

Mostly snow now. Moderate.

Me too. I'm a die hard Ravens fan but once they started struggling I went heavy on the Bengals to win the AFC and the SB.

Best op run in a long time fwiw.

A lot of the worst winters still managed 1 storm that affected mostly the entire region. They were centered around late January/ early February. Hopefully we can scrap something together over the next 2 weeks. Here's a few: 1. January 2002. Happened on the infamous day of the tuck rule game with Brady. 2. Early February 1992. 3. Early February 1995. 4. Early February 1997. 5. Late January 2008. 1995 storm was the best of the bunch but anything at this point is acceptable.

Rock Bottom! I said in 2 words what takes PSU 5 long paragraphs! Lol.

12z GFS was colder. PSU mentioned models are starting to meet in the middle which won't get it done. It's not hopeless yet though. This should be the type of system that if it does take a decent track any area that gets heavy precip. and has some elevation would be in the game for some snow.

Cloudy and stuck at 30.

Thread the needle? Lol.

It appears that we had the slightest of dustings here overnight.

Yeah, not great but it did get a good deal wetter up here.

This is still our best shot so far! I really don't see it as a thread the needle type deal.

I get it! I'm just as frustrated and aggrevated as anyone. What bothers me is that you have a handful of bad posters that have no trouble spending hours on this board yet they don't seem to have any time to really learn and as result their posts stink. Sure, it's ok to vent a little but on the other hand try to become educated. We're lucky to have some of the best insight and knowledge available through some fantastic posters and red taggers. I have noticed that you personally have made an effort to learn and you ask some good questions. We just need a few more regulars to follow suit.

Absolutely horrendous!

Big change on 12z Euro ensemble charts regarding EPO. After days of positive to neutral it finally brings it in solid negative territory. All other indices appears to be lining up as well.

I ended up with 26-28 inches. Hour after hour of sustained 2-3 inch per hour rates. If memory serves correct most of the snow fell in a 12 hour period between 5:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

Sorry to hear this Bob. Hang in there. Better days ahead. Hopefully a few snowy ones!

Last 2 run of Euro ensembles backed off slightly on the EPO going negative. It still has it going down but keeps it positive where before it clearly had it neutral to going negative. Let's hope it returns to the looks we were getting before today. Way too early to tell is the new pattern is just meh. AO appears to be negative and PNA firmly positive by the 8th. Last 2 run also also backed off a bit on a -NAO but still has it clise to neutral. We'll see.

I haven't read through this thread very carefully but my post was focused on the data from 1989 until present. You can't deny that those numbers are very concerning. We're talking about almost half of the last 33 winters producing extremely low numbers. For instance if the numbers went from 9 to 11 then it can be dismissed or chalked up to random occurrence but 9 to 16 is almost double and has to be strongly accepted as something greater involved.
