bastardi not buying what the GFS is selling. It's kind of tough to go against the Euro/NAM when they agree at this range. GFS probably in fantasy land.

But we shall see....like I said don't care much at this stage and you and I would probably both agree we're 24 hours from a more clear "solution" although I hate the idea of the euro working so far south.

Of course not, because the the NAM and EURO affect the larger portion of the populous.

Now that we are into a more typical La Nina regime, most of these systems have trended north in the last 36 hours. So I'm quite content having a few models a bit south now. Gives some wriggle room. Monday for example turned into a disaster with even Ottawa going to rain.

Things really flipped toward a more typical La Nina situation about two weeks ago... The first big wake up call was that Saturday low that the models had too far south for us until the last 24 hours. In the end I got an inch of sleet and the all snow was GFL to LEB north.

I think we'll be worrying about flirting with pingers more than a whiff south on the first event before its done.

Hey Rick! No wind yet.

We will see on this next one but the surpressed solutions.....who knows.

Agreed....other ideas are funny to me, Will.

Ugly torching lakes cutter for next weekend on Euro...hopefully its wrong and it ends up on S side of an overrunning gradient...but its a worry. Looks like a decent overrunning event at 216-228h but that is getting into clown range.

Been pretty consistent. :axe:

The Scooter warmup.

I've got mixed feelings about next weekend...I could see it colder like the GFS and ensembles. But the Euro has really amped up that trough and overpowers the -EPO...it would help if we had a slightly -NAO or something, but we don't.

But never under estimate the power of a good -EPO...it can often really work wonders in a gradient potential. We'll see. Obviously first things first...lets take care of business for Monday. Hopefully we can get a nice stripe of warning criteria over our area.

Yeah we'll see.

I find it funny how little we are really paying attention to the monday event even though it could possibly give us 6"+. More like 3-6" but still. If this was back in December when we were getting screwed and still hadn't had a decent snowfall yet, this thread would probably be lit up for a 3-6" event.

But now its just kind of meh. I'm still looking forward to a nice refresher. Get the pack looking good again and if we can get a 7" spot...that would actually make it look pretty prolific again up over 2 feet. I definitely am nervous about another brief torch though late next week. A nasty cutter would do a lot of damage to the pack and we'd probably get another net loss between now and next saturday if a cutter happened despite a much needed reinforcement on Monday.

I will in a day or two, but as you have been harping......it's a tedious set up.

I agree....nxt week scares me; after that we are good for awhile.

Yeah I think so...the EPO gets more dominant in the long range for us because the PNA relaxes just a bit. So I think if we can escape late next week without a torching cutter, we'll be looking great for building the pack up decently again. But hell, even if we do get one, I think we have a good chance to cash in on early March.

Hopefully it delievers. I'm so sick of crappy Marches around here. Its usually one of our better months for snow (better than Dec) and we haven't had a huge one in 6 years. We had a good one in '07 but not really what you'd call a big March..that was relegated to NNE.

March '07 was mainly comprised of one big event....st Paddy's day, when you and I, along with most of interior sne got about 1'.

Mar 24-25 gave me 4" of total paste...but yeah, it wasn't like we had events left and right that month. It was mainly St. Pattys day event and then that later one (more elevation event)

Seems like yesterday when I took these pics in the Mar 24-25 event but it was nearly 4 years ago now

Didn't last long though....3 days later...lol

I had 2" in that....11" in the st Paddy's day and .5" on March 2nd...that was the mnth for me.

The St. Paddy's day will always hold a special place in my heart, though because it was my 2nd major event on this board, the first being the vd event....I had to wait an ETERNITY to experience a decent event on here, that winter. :lol::axe:

The EUro has consistently had an awfully warm cutter in the D8-10 range for several cycles. Time to focus on this next small event and put the misery out of sight and mind for awhile.

03z SREFs came in warmer and juicier than 21z. Looks like 0.35-0.40"-ish for qpf, but its hard to say exactly with the large increments they use. So kind of between the robust GFS and the skimpier NAM. A little more than the Euro. I am cautiously expecting it to trend a little better.
