Looking now!
 
Eta:  just watched. Love it.   But where is Hulk?  He better have a much larger role in this film.

If you recall, Hulk was super scared by Thanos last movie and refused to come out. Don’t think they want to spoil his emergent moment. There were no fight scenes in that whole trailer really, pretty admirable of them to spoil so little.

Anyone else see the Avengers trailer? I'm so hyped. I'd give up a month of winter to see that movie now.

NWS has the best graphics. From reading the LWX AFD, someone else (or a computer?) must make these.

Lol @ the GFS giving "cville" the shaft

being guilty by association is going to grow tiring. hopefully it passes, like with that Dover guy.

Snow doesn’t get out of the most southern edge of Virginia on the GFS, and it barely snows there.

Close the blinds.

18z EURO, FWIW.

Hi there,
For those of us maybe strongly considering a chase...where would you suggest setting up shop?

If I end up heading back to Arlington for the storm I could hand you off the key to my dorm room in Charlottesville. Much cheaper than a hotel. You’d have to deal with my roommate though. And you could meet up with snowchaser!

This guy

It's not the worst map I've ever seen, tbh. I was expecting a random bubble surrounding Charlottesville that showed a 1'+.

 

 

 

Give me $1000 if we get a blizzard.. yes

This would be for this next storm, not the whole winter

The NAM is actually pretty interesting. The storm could be two parts, the second being a Miller A blizzard.

If we get a Miller A blizzard I’ll venmo you $1000.

GEFS a slight improvement. IIRC, heavier stuff has been shifted more south but northern extent is a little nicer.

This is a great image.

You get to choose
1. You get 2-4" knowing 50-100 miles south gets a foot plus
2. You get nothing and nobody else does but Tallahassee gets a foot of rain and a sleet pellet 

tougher decision for me then I want to admit. I’d choose 1, but it’s a different scenario I think.

Better scenario:

1. everyone gets nothing
2. you get nothing but NC gets 12”

I see no reason not to pick 1

Taking bets on who is the first to start rooting for a total bust down south?

misery loves company 

Just now, yoda said:

His new FB post as of 4 hours ago still calls for that potential

It's mean because I want to give him credit for making a bold call. But him just whining about the local media being too cautious, 5 days out, with good reason to be cautious, didn't sit well with me. And besides, if we don't get snow RIC shouldn't.

Just now, yoda said:

I think it was you who said it, but I kind of want it now to be suppressed to where DT gets flurries

Nah, that was me. His prediction yesterday was so boisterous I want it to mega-bust. He was giving like 50% odds of a foot in RIC.

Who woulda thunk we’d be sitting here in early December talking about too much confluence suppressing a storm into NC and northern SC?

Hopefully the CMC puts us out of our misery and caves so we can at least pretend to close the blinds on this one.

It's odd that, to me, the free ones (TT, Pivotal, College of DuPage) generally have nicer UIs than the paid ones... They just don't have the zoom and the paid models. 

If you have EURO maps you can get away with murder.

Speaking of the GEFS... the mean (sorry if this was posted already) is godawful. This needs to turn around ASAP

 

18z FV3 is a big swing and a miss, .1" of QPF makes it up to just south of Fredericksburg or so. 

See it here: http://mageval.ncep.noaa.gov

 

Part of me really wants this shunted far south that DT can eat crow for the Richmond area media market being cautious about this storm. 

GEFS essentially identical to 6z just based off the snowmap. 

better zoom. It is a slight improvement. Mean jumped an 1" or so for DCA.
