    Maybe declaring winter over is what we needed.
  2. mattinpa
    Well it is certainly too far away to give up on it. But yes, we like when the GFS is south - and I hope if it comes back that we get more support. I remember the GFS being right while alone more with bad outcomes.

    It really develops the coastal for next weekend

    Thanks. Explains things well for why there could be some (if not a lot of) chance for a snow event.
  5. mattinpa
    Any chance we get colder than the 40s that are predicted? The projected temps would give a cold rain. But yes might as well watch it. It would be gone quickly also, but any event this winter is a big thing.

    February having 28 days in non leap years always bothered me. Yes there are 31 days in Dec and Jan - but Dec is not our peak snow season.
  7. mattinpa
    I do. Though I tend to be optimistic.

    Hi Don - how long do you see the February warmup lasting and do you think there will be one more chance before spring? (like in late Feb or March)
  9. mattinpa
    Same with me. I know we need rain, but I wish we did not. Hate thunderstorms even more.
  10. mattinpa
    So that’s what snow looks like! Moderate snow that looks pretty. Just a dusting so far.
  11. mattinpa
    In most winters, there is something even if minor. So chances are something will surprise.
  12. mattinpa
    At least it is the GFS and shows a suppressed system. Things have been correcting more north - too north and west in fact.
  13. mattinpa
    Yeah at least there is the high which makes something measurable doable IMO - but wouldn’t be surprised if shut out again.
  14. mattinpa
    End of month/early Feb looks like a possibility. Of course there is always a chance that goes away like the other periods.
  15. mattinpa
    Yep, lightning and a loud clap of thunder here. So depressing for January.

    Considering all I have gotten is a brief snow squall on Christmas Eve, this would feel like a major storm.
  17. mattinpa
    Well, if it does turn out that way, and we will see - I hope March is cold enough so the snow doesn’t just melt right away.
  18. mattinpa
    Looks like something to track finally. While I do not expect this to turn into a good winter, as December showed, we could still have periods where we can cash in if things go right.

    Thanks for keeping on top of it. I enjoy your write ups a lot. Yes, what is coming up likely isn’t sustainable for a whole month, but we will have to see how cold it gets and if it snows. We don’t need it to be teens for highs like on Christmas Eve.
  20. mattinpa
    Hi Don - I hope we do get cold by mid Jan because we’d really be wasting peak winter time.
  21. mattinpa
    Fortunately winds were pretty light here and got to see a snow squall before Christmas. Currently 7 here.
  22. mattinpa
    Can someone explain exactly what went wrong when we had such blocking? Bad SE ridge orientation?
  23. mattinpa
    Interesting. Yes, the GFS showed rain, but its evolution was still different than the other models.
  24. mattinpa
    It’s still well early enough for corrections. I did like seeing the GFS east. I hope they don’t all go to a cutter and stay there - we have seen that happen a lot.
  25. mattinpa
    I’m definitely excited - the last White Christmas in Philly was in 2009 - but correct that we still need a lot of features in place to get a MECS/BECS.
