(Other than primitive meteorology and such, haha) I mean, that had to be incredible! It was an inverted trough extending from a relatively weak surface low off the coast. The snowfall distribution, relatively narrow and in a nw se orientation is consistent with such a feature but the amazing totals and time of year were what really made it a historic event. I am not sure if a similar event would be forecasted great today. We probably would have at least some inkling that there was the possibility but inverted trough type bands are notoriously difficult to pin down even today. https://www.google.com/amp/www.baltimoresun.com/news/weather/weather-blog/bal-wx-70-years-ago-a-snowstorm-took-baltimore-by-surprise-20120327-story,amp.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They start 3 freshmen so they have plenty of room to grow. I doubt Trimble goes to the NBA after the up and down year he had.

snowfan Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 MD would be ok if they had a good coach. Turgeon is very uninspiring with questionable game management/decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No MD was not supposed to be good this year. They started 3 freshman. They as got a bad draw with X. They were a 3 seed until their star player got hurt. They lost 7 in a row. Took them some time to find their identity after the injury. I think they will be a force in the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will be a force in the tournament. the terps lacked playmakers, simple as that. their big men had a range that went out to about 2 feet from the basket and aside from their point guards, just about no one was able to drive to the basket and make plays on their own in isolation. game planning against them is easy. stop trimble and let the others beat you, which they weren't able to do against the stronger teams on a consistent basis. the freshmen need mileage. hopefully, they make their way to the crc over the summer and get a lot of games in. they need that more than they need drills. and yes, we're talking about sports in the long range thread because winter is o-vah...until the freak april snowstorm, of course.

Anomalous H5 low tracking across the country with 1041 HP pressing in from Quebec. Areas to our north into PA get pummeled and we end up transitioning to snow as well as the cold wedge bleeds south east of the Blue Ridge. The SE Ridge pumping the heights ahead of the disturbance basically kill any chance of a full snow event this way until the upper low is under us, but areas around I-80 get hit hard. You think Binghamton can share some of that snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ggem has a similar look but further north. Things have trended south a few times lately so maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillvilleWx Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Just checked the previous H5 handling on the Euro, it's night and day haha. That's a pretty remarkable run right there. It's too bad that isn't on the doorstep instead of Day 8-9. Hey, we've had snow that late recently. Why not a second time eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know and that's something to keep an eye on both for winter and severe weather purposes. Where I forecast for, looking closely at the pattern progression to see what kind of severe potential we have at some of our sites. I'll be watching intently.

But you will miss our April 3 blizzard. It's actually becoming comical that there are even still ghosts of threats to look at now. At some point cruel climo slams the door shut but if it's going to be chilly might as well eek another threat or two out of this better pattern. We will have some sunny warm days anyways mixed in given the time of year but if we also have another threat to track I won't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
