  1. What do the precip maps look like?
  2. 6 hour Gefs qpf from 18z at 144hrs on top and Eps on the bottom. Lol
  3. I looked at qpf on the JMA and in the DCA/BWI area the scale increased by 2 levels (.5") and 1 level (.25") imby. Heaviest precip on the JMA is in central VA and south and they're likely rain or mix at best. Iow, JMA ain't close to what the Gfs is showing.
  4. A 1 in a 19 year event. At least the odds are in our favor for once.
  5. 18z run ends at 144hrs, so you'll have to wait for 0z.
  6. In light of the difference in placement of the Great Lakes slp, I would have thought the Euro would be further north with the southern system. Heck of a lot more space with the Euro.
  7. Odds favor 18z Gfs won't look like 12z. No consistency when it comes to snow "threats" all winter.
  8. You never know how they are going to shake out, so you just roll the dice with guidance consensus.
  9. Everything says a legit SSW event starting 3/11. Chilly end of March into April as a result is a good bet and just maybe an anomalous late season snow somewhere in the east.
  10. All the ensembles are at .75"+. Forget the operationals, especially the Gfs.
  11. I don't think the existence or non-existence of that storm in any way changes my need for counseling services.
  12. That's why I always said you want to be in the bullseye area with the season's first synoptic event. Not necessarily "the" bullseye, but the bullseye stripe or area.
  13. A lot of Nina conditions except for SSTA won't even allow it to be categorized as an official Niña oddly.
  14. The refreshing thing is that next year won't look like that, but there's no support for it in the first place.
  15. Today's updated March Cansips looking warm neutral to me. Here's a link to December. You can scroll forward from there. https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=cansips&region=global&pkg=ssta_noice&runtime=2025030100&fh=9 On a different note, looks like a decent amount of blocking through the winter with cold along the northern tier into the MA fwiw.
  16. I think this winter proved indisputably that using alphabet indexes exclusively for winter forecasting is far from a lock. To assume those indexes can be accurately forecasted in advance is equally as risky imho. Then throw in the nuances like variability during the winter and trends over the winter contrary to the anticipated final number (switching from + to - and vica versa) to name just a few, and it's accuracy is a cr@p shoot.
  17. Your rolled forward didn't work this winter with the warmth and the PDO rose above -1 from -2, so it's not a guarantee, like everything else in weather prediction.
  18. AI is south and not much. Looks more like a front. Completely lost the storm look. P.s. comes out early since yesterday's upgrade
  19. It's 10:1 and temps are marginal,so it overdone even if it occurred as depicted. So it would still be a fail imby in all likelihood acting as the final dagger in the back of this winter by missing me to the north instead of south. Do I have the weenie mentality down or what? Lol
  20. That explains the jump in VA & WVA on the 24hr snowfall mean.
