  1. I think the CMC had some ridiculous ice totals for the Dec event!? It has a tendency to spit out apocalyptic ice totals!
  2. I don’t remember how far out during the tracking of the Dec storm it was, but I think a few model runs showed miller B options, before finally honing in on the miller A track
  3. Don’t worry, this was always a bonus storm! Pattern change doesn’t even start till the 16th or later! Then we will be tracking rainstorms every 3-5 days! That’ll be new!
  4. The only way I see snow, is y’all to pick me up and take me to Boone! Sucks to live here, if you like snow!
  5. Not with a 1046 in SE Canada! It will be a lot colder, verbatim, on that map!
  6. For the best winter storms and wedges, don’t we want single digit DP’s?
  7. That’s kind of what happened with the December storm, the confluence got stronger on modeling as we got closer, most models had a 1035 or so for that storm, and cold was marginal. Most are modeling this one as a 1040/41, maybe this will trend colder!?
  8. Yeah, next week into the weekend, looks torchy and sunny!!
  9. Right where we want it! So we can utter JB’s and DT’s favorite phrase: it’s gonna come North”!
  10. How do we want it to happen , to get more cold and snow?
  11. The GFSv3 crushes NC/SC, what could go wrong!?
  12. It was supposed to go on till the 20th of Jan or something, before the GFSv3 officially takes over
  13. There will be a good hard freeze in April ( teens) just to kill off all the leaves and flowers that got a head start in January!
  14. I love looking 15 days ahead for cold and it never gets closer!
  15. It’s amazing that we can’t get a stable cold pattern, for even a week! We can lock in torch for two months, at the drop of a hat
  16. Europe looks good and cold! That’s a given every year! The biggest cold pocket in the world, is not in or around North America!
  17. It doesn’t matter if there is a SE ridge or not, 40s-60s aren’t going to get you wintry precip, and that’s about all we get as far as cold goes, the next 2 weeks plus
  18. The indices forecasts have looke good since early Dec, I’ve got 300 sleet pellets out of “ the most amazing pattern seen in years”!? Smfh
  19. Yeah, it’ll be clear by January 1st, this winter will suck like the last 5 or so. Unicorn SSW and perfect looking long range patterns, are going by the wayside. Somebody start the 2019 hurricane thread! Put this craptastic to bed
  20. Too much variability in model runs , because of the major pattern changes. People can’t get excited about 1 run that shows snow, and 6 hours later it shows 60s! And we are holding our breath hoping the unicorn SSW will help us have a blockbuster winter
  21. Just seems like the new norm to be a week or so away from Christmas and searching 10, 15,20 , days ahead to look for the big chill and pattern change!? It’s almost like clockwork! We have the magical unicorn ready to pull out of our butts ( SSW) to make the cold and snowy pattern set up, but that’s far from a certainty! I look forward to the snowman pics from Iran and Egypt in the upcoming weeks, as the split goes the wrong way for us!
  22. I can confirm, that’s pretty accurate
  23. 2m Ground temps rising in the wedge , with snow / sleet cover, is how you lose at ULL! We suck at snow in the Upstate, S of 85
  24. Uber the winter storm warning until Tuesday!? Guess they issue those for rain now!?
