First Winter Storm to kickoff 2025-26 Winter season

[Typhoon Tip]

well   heh, not to be a dink but this thing isn't likely to be more than manageable in my eyes, and never was.  middling middling middling.

it's moving too fast.  barely below 995 ... all of it.   but i get it that 4" of paste can bring down power lines but that's like climo hassle level stuff

I volunteer. And to promote my candidacy, I will promise hourly videos, and on the ground reports.  
It’s the 700 mbar low that we’re focused on here. Is that right?

Yeah, You want to be NW of that.

As long as I can get a covering here…it’d be a win this early. Hopefully that’s still in the cards. 

I think we are cooked down here....I'm worried we won't even get on the board here, especially at my lower elevation.

I would wager that you have decent odds at getting your covering and maybe even around 0.5" or so. I think some of the guidance is too aggressive with warming sfc temperatures so quickly. I understand too its the temperatures aloft which are a concern too but I think they will still be cold enough initially to support snow. But at the surface, dewpoints will still be into the upper 20's and probably some room to wet bulb at the initial onset of precipitation which should help to keep temperatures just cold enough.

Wow, this one was fun to track, but all over the place. Not to give Kevin a big head, but I have to give him credit. He's stuck to his guns from the beginning. I'll be happy if I get an inch.

Not too disappointed, as it's early and I don't usually see much snow around this time frame. I would start getting more anxious by the middle of the month. But even then, as we say for the last several years, we still have January, February and March. Hopefully we'll look back on this conversation by March and say what a winter it was!

Ya…he thought 2-4” anyway.  Heh, these models can jump back the other way a tad too..so it ain’t a done deal yet.

Still thinking 6 to 9 unless this warms more

GYX 90/50/10 percents for Farmington (and here) are 0.5"/7"/14".  Guessing that the models remain far apart.  P&C forecast is 3-5 tomorrow and 2-4 tomorrow night.

Where is the pic of Ray dropping the toaster into Kevin‘s bathtub? Is that possible?

I am still baffled at no warnings, 5-11" is a big range 18 hours out
