  1. If it makes you feel any better, had rain in Vegas NYE and was basically damp and soggy all day yesterday. Looks like I’ll be coming back early next week to a warmista pattern (I’m kinda ok with it tbh). Mid Jan looks to be the start of the most important pattern in this forum’s history.
  2. Squall lines are fun. I’ve noticed the snow can be out of sync with the radar returns based on the wind direction. Curious what would cause this one to occur as opposed to >95% of the other NS systems.
  3. Meanwhile it’s raining here in Vegas lol. Actually a decent consistent steady light rain in progress. I return to the east side next week…I might be ready for a blizzard by then.
  4. SW US is getting active after having a very mild December. Not sure what that means further east, but something to keep an eye on.
  5. It’s about as bad of a run as it gets for early Jan. 2014 and 15 were mostly backloaded winters even though it was chilly from start to finish, which seems to be where things are headed as a best case scenario.
  6. Not getting digital blue on a 16 day ops run on Dec 31 is anti-ideal.
  7. This might be the most important January since 2016.
  8. Ngl, it’s like of awesome being on west coast time. 845 here and the gfs is almost done. Looked more like a workable front end App runner than a cutter.
  9. Had tequila the other night and, while I appreciate the fact that it gave me zero hangover, bourbon is still the goat imo.
  10. You know we’re hungry when we’re looking at 10 day ops runs.
  11. I’d actually be pretty surprised if we don’t end up with a couple decent snowstorms this winter when all is said and done. I’m honestly more surprised at the measly amounts for mby so far given the cold air around. And even more surprised than that, that there hasn’t been a wsw level snowfall while I’ve been out west the last couple weeks lol. Seems like the pattern hasn’t changed a whole lot with the missing ingredient mostly just being a lack of a southern stream/stj.
  12. That’s more my style. Cartoppers are played.
  13. I have minimal interest in anything less than a 4-6”+ event. I like snowstorms a lot more than I like snow lol. Hopefully this winter includes something substantial for this area.
  14. Yea it’s not about Miller ABC, it’s about whether there’s a southern stream.
  15. I’m seriously considering chasing snow this season. I’m kinda due for a ski trip.
  16. Meh lol. I may need to get a real snowstorm out of my system before I get interested in these nickel and dime frozen events again, unless it’s a legit ice storm (those can be cool minus the power outages). Driving in any sort of ice sucks, though, so from an actual weather forecaster perspective it should be taken seriously due to travel impacts.
  17. On the plus side, you’re only missing minor events in this steroidal La Niña. Once TN valley systems and coastals return, you’re gonna be sitting pretty…and Frederick, too.
  18. Just peeked at radar…looks like one of those awesome events where you can see the back edge of the precip before the precip arrives.
  19. You’re gonna love it out there and it seems like the western ski resorts are slowly making up ground. Just experienced CO-style weather in southern NV actually. Yesterday was miserable…windy, scattered rain. Today…bright sunshine. Still kinda windy, though lol.
