  1. I do not haha. One day I’ll actually make good on my snow chase threats and do it. We’ll see what things look like this week.
  2. Good to know… I always imagine the real mountain cabins up some winding road that the county doesn’t plow. I’m a paranoid guy
  3. My (maybe ignorant) worry about booking a mountain cabin is always getting out. Not a lot of experience in snow driving and no clue what the plow situation is. I’m sure you never really get stuck, lol, but it’s something I think about
  4. Nice to see an active looking LR… and MR for those eyeing an early season mountain chase. Could almost make one think we might see snow this December
  5. Casual 3 feet near the MD/WV border. Ski season would start with a boom
  6. Go back and look at 06z - it had like 30” lol
  7. 12z GFS is less extreme but held serve with the general idea.
  8. I probably ask this every year - but anyone using weathermodels these days over weatherbell? The former is just substantially cheaper - may have to give it a go this year. I know Pivotal also basically offers everything for free but it's not my favorite layout or color palette.
  9. Guess it isn't surprising but GEFS follows the OP on 00z and 06z and really honks on the WV/MD mountains for snow next weekend. EPS is a lot more muted (but trending up), so not booking anything yet!
  10. ULLs can do weird things. If anything like that GFS run validates, I’ll be cashing out some of that PTO early to flee into the hills next weekend.
  11. I plan on it… have 28 days of PTO saved up, lol. Some will be burned on a (hopefully not ill timed) January vacation, but hope to use some liberally for a good east coast snowstorm or 2!
  12. 12k NAM and GFS hint at first snow for Deep Creek this week. @nj2va you renting?
  13. Bad news - I forget the timeline, but EURO is going to 360 or 384 pretty soon.
  14. This is the year we get a Dec. 5th storm back. And then we’re blanked for the rest of the year.
  15. Nice to start seeing something 10-12 days out. Could use some fantasy distractions, lol
  16. Going (our modern) average for now… maybe I’ll change my mind before the deadline! BWI: 11.2” DCA: 9.9” IAD: 16.1” RIC: 7.3” Tiebreaker (SBY): 8.1”
  17. Reading Cappucci’s tweet, believe he’s just stepping into a part-time role. Don’t think it’s a political issue. Hoping the DMV coverage continues!
  18. Liberty will do better than here… as will many spots. Definitely gonna chase this year if it’s looking grim, or if there is a storm that just looks too good to skip. Lots of PTO banked and may need some good vibe distractions. Snow ain’t that reliable for that!
  19. Probably is. What a miss by the models - so small they just can’t see it well?
  20. Good news sickos. In one month: EURO OP is going to 360 hours. Off hour runs are going all the way to 144.
  21. First flakes in WV mountains next Tuesday? GFS says maybe.
  22. I think it’s more the cameras that have improved rather than the satellites. Everyone now carries a $1000 camera with them at all times. We’ve realized we don’t need G5s or K9 or whatevers to see Aurora in the mid-Atlantic.
  23. My theory is social media vastly has increased awareness… plus phone camera exposure and night mode being so readily acceptable. Think Aurora is probably visible from Shenandoah a dozen+ times a year during the years of solar maximum. Wouldn’t have known that in the past because no one tried… or if they did it wasn’t shared out.
