2nd half of peak climo might hit different.

We might not be able to escape winter this year, though it would have been cool if it snowed this weekend for Fire in Ice in Frederick.

It’s going all in on a cad setup with a decent hp in place over New England. Who knows. Agreed, that there will be practically zero fzra concerns with the recent temps.

Winter will return. We just got used to 2 months straight of it.

Looks like potentially 60 here on Monday. I’m excited about the early spring. We had a good run, though.

Prime climo, too. Oh well…wall to wall winters are rare for a reason.

Flat flow and retreating high. Pretty wild how quickly winter flipped to early spring.

We need to find a way to pinch off another pv lobe.

Only 1.5 months left until March Madness!

Busy workweek, but did check out the latest enso ppt last night. Seems like La Niña is starting to flex a bit. I guess we’ll need the mjo to swing back around and get the southern stream active again? Otherwise the upper level pattern the last few times I checked seemed reminiscent of last year. That said, I’ve got some catching up to do on this thread and the models.

It was for Bub and Brogdon, but still a sus trade. Will need to see if the new FO picks pan out. Too early to tell because they literally blew up the entire roster when they arrived. Hard to argue with their picks so far given where the players have been selected in the draft. What they really need to do is trade Kuzma. He just doesn't make sense on this roster.

Too much loyalty under both Pollin (Unseld) and Leonsis (Grunfeld). I mostly agree with their current strategy of stinking in order to get high picks and build a foundation, but they're gonna need to earn fan's trust at this point.

Snow really caved in Frederick today. Actually got some shots up at a nearby court after work. Definitely liking the longer days, that's for sure.

March snow, in DC at least, is choppy. Only 4 winters since 2000 have produced 2"+. Of course, that's DCA, so take it for what it's worth.

Yea, we've had more miserable storm tracks, but looks like the northern jet is too far north...almost split flow-like, imo.

1040s over Quebec can work.

Don't look at the 12z gfs for the Friday system, but do look at the 12z gfs for next week.

I was rooting for snow...actually have ski plans Saturday, but that ain't looking too good rn. Maybe PA can stay frozen.

For the most part, yes... .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... High pressure will keep the region dry Thursday into Thursday evening. Some increasing clouds with a developing southerly flow will evolve as the high moves offshore. A low pressure system moving east across the Ohio Valley Thursday night into Friday will spread some rain across the region Thursday night through Friday night. High temperatures Thursday will be near average reaching the middle to upper 40s. Thursday night`s lows will be about 10 degrees warmer than Wednesday night`s lows due to the increased southerly flow and cloud cover and rain. Friday`s highs could be 10 degrees warmer than Thursday`s highs. The exact track of the low pressure system will determine amounts of rainfall and if cold air ahead of the low will be given a chance to have a mixed bag of precipitation.

Yea, I'm kinda open to some milder days for a bit. Not sure how much I want another 3-4" snowfall, which is about the most I've seen from each storm. Mby has had a bunch of minor events and some entertaining squalls, but at this point I think I want a 6-10"+ event. Actually, the most I've seen here since I moved here in 2021 is about 6" in Jan '22.

Looks like some sneaky wind might be accompanying the thaw at times this week.

Like the Commanders, we had a good run. Time to focus on next year’s Modoki?

They’re a machine

The chiefs won by 3. Might as well have been 21. They turn it up when they feel like. Philly is legit, though. A ton of playmakers. Could be a fun sb

Not the best looking indices in the near-term (still learning this part of the hobby)... https://www.weather.gov/fgz/Teleconnections The mid- to late-Feb winter renewal seems rational.
