Wrong event....that one had great snowgrowth and took place on Sunday.

I meant 12/13/07. This is it without the better 2007 dynamics.

Just spent 90 minutes in the woods on a snowy day. You guys should get out in it. It may be sugary but the sweetness added to your weenie soul would be well worth it. Maybe 2 inches otg now.

This is such a tight system that the good frontogenesis band is not that far north of the low.

The frontogensis above 850mb is pretty weak too...if the system had been a bit more robust, we were trying to get the 600-700mb fronto up in this region, but its kind of diffuse as most of the forcing is concentrated below that level....so we are seeing it all focus along the 800-900mb fronto.

Yeah good point. Models had good lift at 850 to 700, but it was far south. If this was even a little stronger everything would have been a little more organized to the north as advection processes and frontogenesis would follow. In the end the forecasts wont be too bad, just perhaps a little on

The lower end on some of ranges.
