    Went through my archives…Feb 16, 2015…that was a low qpf producer. Those were smaller flakes, though. I don’t know how I remember this stuff lol

    We had a clipper that season that dropped several inches of snow in single digits temps, I think. Might have been 20:1 ratios. Somewhat similar to the low qpf high performer several years ago.

    I’ll never forget my hs ski trip to killington that winter. Couldn’t even ski one of the days. Way below zero wind chills. Haven’t experienced cold like that since.

    I'm actually getting paper-like cuts on my fingertips from playing too much basketball in the cold. This happened a couple years ago, too, which ended up being a better winter in Frederick. I might start using this as an early season sign...like the snowy owl appearances.

    Feels like early spring outside.

    Looks more like differences in timing than pattern.

    Looks like the gulf is closed for business for the late week clipper systems: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=gfs&region=us&pkg=midRH&runtime=2024121612&fh=102

    You must be new here.

    Decent several hour event here, just a couple degrees too warm to be a big deal. 2nd legitimate light snow event this season. We've performed worse.

    Still flaking here...back to larger flakes with this latest band. I remember Millville saying the Frederick valley can take some extra time to scour out cold air. Seems to be what's happening right now, though rates are probably helping.

    Just went up to the store...roads are actually worse than I expected. This is definitely an overperformer event here...was certainly not in the forecast. I guess rain/sleet will be incoming here soon since your climate seems to precede mine.

    Chunky flakes here.
  13. 87storms
    Just thinking this is basically clipper-level now.
  14. 87storms
    Basically moderate level snow sticking to grass, mulch, car tops…whitening up quickly. We might be back.
  15. 87storms
    Actually snowing here…decently.
  16. 87storms
    12z is our most important run of the year so far.
  17. 87storms
    It does look kind of enticing, though. Pretty stout HP nearby on both of the spotlight models. Precip is generally easier than cold here.

    How's January '26 looking?
  19. 87storms
    I'm not that far behind. We're simply not good at snow anymore and that's just the reality of the situation. Hoping we can at least have something to track soon. That would be a step in the right direction.

    One of the bigger issues, at least in the 95 corridor, the last 10-15 years has been the lack of December snow. We used to be able to wet our palette's with at least a close in 'burbs storm or two early in the season, but if you look at DCA stats there hasn't been a 2"+ snowfall since 2011...which is pretty bad and fully supports the idea that we're losing snow on the margins. I guess the question is whether it's a decadal pattern issue or a long-term trend.
  21. 87storms
    We are who we thought we were.
  22. 87storms
    It was a snow cold, no question about it.
  23. 87storms
    I could do without the persistent W/E cloud deck today. Doesn't look like that'll break before sunset.
  24. 87storms
    Looks like a Miller B, no? I'm still in...because weather.
  25. 87storms
    Has winter shown its hand?
