That step down process really worked for us last year.. we got nailed before the gulf coast got theirs.. oh wait

We had plenty of cold air last year. We just couldn't get the moisture in here. Deep troughs pushed the low pressure systems south. So not a lack of cold but too much of a good thing.

I dont disagree it's just weird how the cold seems to always push the moisture down now or we have a Great Lakes Low, or the air is too dry. Its like baking a cake but we almost always have a missing ingredient

UK is a cold rain and a decent snow for DC north. 

[wncsnow]

Euro is weak and light rain, little bit of snow for Mid Atlantic

Funny how quiet it gets when King Euro and the EPS shows nothing in the long range to get excited about.

You’re “surprised” that the posting follows how it has been for years on this site? Does your incessant trolling make your day?

Considering your response it must make yours too thanks for the love

And it isn't trolling if its true. Go look for yourself.

The asinine nature of your posts is what is trolling. But you know that. Anyway, I’ll patiently wait for the others with actual useful information to post now. Have fun being miserable.

You think the Euro and EPS data isn't useful when its the model with the best verification scores?

I just think it's this cycle we are in. We will break out of it eventually.  Just one of those things.

In fairness to WNCSNOW,  he is as excited as anybody when there is something to be excited about.

He doesn't necessarily like to look for the positive when it requires a little searching, but he is quite often right because of that.

I don't think he is trolling at all. He is just a realist. Realism can be painful around here though, lol. 

He is a little negative, but he is a good dude and a good poster to have on this board.

Not trolling, just a novice observation and welcome any explanations.  But I am so tired of seeing the comment about "snowpack being laid down will help us" every single year.  Anyone want to elaborate on why snowpack across the mountains and 500 miles northwest will help our battle against a nearly decade long SER problem?  Sure it may help with cold-er air chasing our moisture from the southern stream.  But I honestly cannot recall a single event where snowpack was featured as the reason our temps were favorable enough to enable a winter storm.  What's the thinking here?  (And any case studies?)
