There's absolutely nothing to track on the latest GFS, though I do approve of the blue sky situation today.
-
What's snow?
-
12z GFS said, "The basketball courts will remain open", which is perfectly acceptable. I would like a snowstorm, though.
-
We're not Charlotte, but we certainly don't need to move to Richmond anymore.
-
West coast winter?
-
So how's the 24/25 ENSO looking?
-
Flood warnings just got issued in Moco. Haven’t seen that too often this year.
-
In some ways it might be better to get rain now and snow later, given the antecedent drought conditions. Table is set for a snowy January…unless it rains.
-
I think 2” is in play across the region. Now we just need this when there’s an arctic high building in from Ontario and Quebec.
-
This is definitely a drought denter.
-
Looks like about 1/3" in the gauges so far.
-
lol We'll get a TN valley to southern/central VA LP snowstorm track at some point.
-
Satellite loop looks fun... https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=GEOCOLOR&length=24 ...and so does WV... https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=08&length=24&dim=1

I wasn't too upset about this being a rainstorm until I saw that radar loop lol. We need to fix this snow issue.
-
Just got a prolonged basketball sesh in before the wall of rain arrives. Light wind/humid...the hoopers understand.
-
Gfs basically punts December, but that end of month setup is intriguing. We’re due for a NYE snowstorm.
-
I was thinking the other day how, at least east of the mountains, we tend to snow 2-3 times in an ideal window of opportunity. It’s no different than in any season when we get into an AN or BN pattern for a couple weeks. We’re not very good at wall to wall winters with the exception of the 2013-2015 legends. Also agree re the Atlantic, which played into my snowfall prediction. It was a problem last year as well and may take some more time to become favorable.
-
It’s either another storm trending east or because the Frederick water table is low.
-
So how’s spring training and the cherry blossoms looking?
-
It doesn’t seem any colder than last year so far, but the pattern does seem like it’s getting more active, which obviously increases the odds of timing.
-
Jan 30, 2010 was a sneak attack. It was forecast to be further south, but the northern edge ended up producing several inches. The 2nd storm in Feb 2010, aka the bowling ball vort, made this area look like Siberia.
-
I don't like the trajectory of that vort at all. We need it digging further west imo. Looks like nothing more than a nw flow/snow shower-y type of system. On the bright side, it appears we may be heading towards a pattern that produces signficant storms that are more spaced out instead of the constant barrage of vorts riding the northern US that typically bring nothing more than clouds and a breeze.
-
The fun part is days start getting longer in less than 2 weeks.
-
Looks like we’re relying on that trailing vort. The initial coastal is a rainer, albeit a beneficial one.
-
CMC rainfall totals are wild. Drought buster stuff.
