North Balti Zen Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Well, Fozz, since this is a weather board, I guess I was just making chatter. Personally, I thought that guys guesses were laughably low, but all of a sudden, they don't seem that way at all - maybe even high. Just trying to make some light of the snow frustration most of us are feeling. Regardless, like you, I sure do hope the pattern flips and we see some snow at some point, which I would imagine is self-evident... You seem REALLY touchy nowadays. Maybe take a Xanax or something, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I don't know this Mercurial poster but I wish he could post here and tell us more what his reasoning was at the time or going forward. I don't know if it was a guess or what, but its starting to look really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 We're not even a third of the way through met winter and yet some of you are already declaring a winner. Come mid-February, these posts will look laughable. If not, then I'm fleeing to Ottawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Ottawa right now: Awful.... though they do average 88" of snow so even in a warm winter they'll probably get at least 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Maybe this has been posted somewhere else, but would anyone know the latest date for the first measurable snowfall at DCA? Just wondering if this record is within reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceFrederickWx Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Maybe this has been posted somewhere else, but would anyone know the latest date for the first measurable snowfall at DCA? Just wondering if this record is within reach. For DCA, I believe its Feb. 23, 1973. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 For DCA, I believe its Feb. 23, 1973. yeah. 4 winters held off till Feb. Feb-02 (1890) Feb-13 (1914) Feb-13 (1960) Feb-23 (1973) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 The amount of cold air about to be unleashed is fairly impressive so I think it's only a matter of time until the region gets nailed. My choice of Jan 7th won't apparently produce a big event although a couple of inches looks possible around 6th or 7th. So then I would be looking towards these dates for the possible "big snows of 2015" -- Feb 2-4, Feb 14-18. We need to shorten these waves a bit, get the cold to stick around ahead of a vortmax longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you like to eat crow, as your under departure from actual for BWI will be greater than my over departure (if there is one) by the end of your contest period. Same applies to Noreastericane.

Mercurial Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Mercurial starting to look like a boss. I don't know this Mercurial poster but I wish he could post here and tell us more what his reasoning was at the time or going forward. I don't know if it was a guess or what, but its starting to look really good. i don't follow MA weather closely, but I went the Prices Right route and guessed super low totals since nobody else did.

PrinceFrederickWx Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 i don't follow MA weather closely, but I went the Prices Right route and guessed super low totals since nobody else did. See this is where you missed an opportunity to look real smart- you could've just said, "Well obviously if you morons all studied the [insert random acronyms here] oscillations you would've easily been able to see that this winter would suck". But anyway, good call and I think you have a good chance of winning. I like my BWI/DCA/IAD calls but I think the RIC call is gonna ruin me... they only have 0.3 inches so far. We need a suppressed storm that screws us to the south now for me to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 BWI 13" Dulles 17" DCA 8" RIC 18" TB: 3.4" Reasoning: Feels like cold and dry is what is going to predominate, and when we do see some juiced systems, they slide to our south. My Richmond guess is a complete lol at this point. Death blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Current seasonal totals ... DCA _13.4" IAD _ 26.4" BWI _21.0" RIC _12.5" So if we assumed at least 2" more in north, who are looking like favorites to win this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Richmond should be adding about 5-7 to that total from today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Winter 2014-2015 Total Snowfall- BWI: 27.5 IAD: 33.1 DCA: 17.2 RIC: 14.7 Tiebreaker- DCA Greatest 24hr Snowfall: 6.0 Think my RIC prediction is pretty close after yesterday? Need about 3" at DC and 6" at IAD and BWI. So, a 3-6" event through the area and I can wrap this puppy up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
