What I do love in the winter, especially now is my office room at home has east facing windows, and with the neighbor cutting down the two pine trees last year I get ample sunshine blasting in the room so it can be like 20 out and as long as it is sunny I get toasty. 

Yes that’s another good point. By this time of the year, for buildings/homes that get good sun, you’re def using less heat at 35 and full sun than 45 and clouds. And yea does a lot to improve your day to day sentiment in the heart of winter.

Because you had a 18" snowstorm and aren't that far BN for snow. 

below normal snowfall and above normal temps doesn't deserve anything more than an F grade....it has felt like winter on about 7 days...and the departure from normal snowfall is going to increase over the next 7-10 days...

Low temp for the winter so far has been 11 degrees. On pace to not have a single morning temp below 10 degrees.

Well it's all relative. Winter will be more AN in temps going forward so deal with it. In your metrics every winter will be a F-. You had a hell of a snow event a month ago. Your snowfall is not that far BN as it stands now.

Agree, you can still get a somewhat respectable winter with slightly above normal temps in the means, but it’s been what +4 AN? That’s just too warm. Meanwhile Alaska has been getting hammered.

..but the departure is increasing by the day... and I have long ago accepted the role the climate change has had on winter. I'm not one of the hype masters of the forum...

Euro goes from extremely suppressed to cutter in 12 hrs for early next week. Back to the glue factory.

Like I said acouple hrs ago…just throw a dart blindfolded at this point. But I mean at 8 days out, that’s kind of what happens.

Hard to say what's going on in any/all guidance actually...

There are arguments for and against any given solution, just about split evenly - making it difficult to associate a "correction vector" 

The problem with a strong change in the PNA mode is that a +PNA can support both a Lakes cut and a coastal proper scenario(s).   It comes down to particulars with the whether the PNA is west or easterly biased... We've seen +PNAs with storms too far S-E too.

In an attempt to distract you all from crackhead operational models, here's a couple of photos I took from the hill today. This time I took a real camera. Unfortunately Stowe doesn't seem like it's going to be possible - topography in the way that I just can't clear from my location at only 2000 ft. Okemo and Killington, however, were baring all.

One thing on my list to do this spring/summer is a more extensive study into the PNA and the entire domain. But I also want to go back and look at some of the other teleconnection/oscillation patterns which are measured out that way and out over Europe/Asia. I used to have a massive list but can't find it.

Gorgeous day with that hammering sun angle, poundtown!!

Yep. Great day for those with solar to tell Eversource and National Grid to fuck off with their outrageous rates.

GEFS looking worse and worse in the pacific as we go run to run.  For now a model war.  FWIW GEPS more euro like bs gefs.

Exactly what we don’t want to see, the great look eroding as we approach. I wouldn’t be surprised however. This is a persistence stance, but that’s the vibe of the season and it hasn’t been disproven yet
