Continued Winter Banter.

The snow is already down to piles in Long Beach. That's just crazy. For the amount of snow that fell, that has to be a record for how fast it melted.

Really!!!??? Not in wantagh at all. I still have wall to wall snow cover and a good amount!! By the way I found a 1" sleet layer so the south shore did change over for a bit. Still wound up with a solid 25"

It's going to be very difficult to get another major event if the AO stays positive but small to moderate events are on the table.

However a strong STJ will add more juice to any system so I could see a MECS if things align perfectly even in a neutral/positive AO regime.

I want a Becs.

My forecast has done very well. We are above normal in temps and there was an extreme luck storm that threaded the needle with perfect timing. January will be above normal in temps. As for February, more of the same, above normal month, there will be a transient cold shot week 2 followed by a big warmup again. Think roller coaster, no sustained arctic outbreaks. Also, minus another luck storm, snowfall will be below normal for February. El Ninos make winters so easy to forecast. It's a beautiful, wonderful thing

 

Well as you say godspeed .

The EPS today is full on winter part 2. Enjoy the warmup. #rockinFeb

@RaleighWx @antmasiello Extremely impressive. Anticyclonic wavebreaking into AK raising heights across the pole. Then PNA pops.

I'd love to hear what you'd consider a BECS for our region?

I can't speak for snow but personally I'd go with sonething along the lines of the Blizzard of 1888. Widespread 40-50 inches in the HV and three feet in the city. That's a BECS IMO.

And please don't bring up the asinine 21 inch total in KNYC. That was the classic worst measurement of all time. Even the neanderthal zookeeper couldn't have F'd up that bad.

some stories about the blizzard...I think it was under measured also...Some of the pictures show much more snow than any other storm on record...2.10" of precip is also low...

An event like that seems fairly unlikely. Better chance of back to back events like the midatlantic in 2010. Something like that could give many a 3 foot or greater snowpack

2 weeks is transient ? The EPS show it . 

So  does the GEFS

Well, I guess in terms of spring being not far off by that time, then yeah, 2 weeks would be transient, but then, so are the seasons....2 weeks of cold will not feel all that transient in fact, if that were to verify, most people would consider that quite sustained...

Back in my ad agency days I worked with a dude whose great grandfather went out in that storm and was never seen again...

Am i the only poster here that dreams small storms and above average temps? The next 6 weeks will be the hardest for winter haters like my self. Winters death march till the end of March..

This is what I wish for every winter. I hate any kind of cold, but snow doesn't bother me as much, as long as it melts quickly. I'd like to move somewhere warmer in the not so distant future.
