why are some other METS saying the -PNA/AO pattern is not favorable ? You have proof that it is. Maybe someone should point this out to Lee Goldberg - Steve D. and DT

In most cases, December 1 to mid-February, it isn't. But when wave lengths shorten, it becomes more favorable and the snowstorm stats speak for themselves. Two thirds of snowstorms with 10" or more snow in Boston, New York City, and/or Philadelphia during the second half of February occurred with a PNA-.

For the first time in a LONG time I've got water trickling through my gutter downspouts!  Nice sound I have to say.  Gutters and downspouts have been solid ice for about a month now.  Several houses in the neighborhood have had gutter ice dams cause indoor water damage.  Lots of green Servpro vans in the area doing cleanup.

My whole gutter on the front side of the house is a brick of ice. Luckily no leaks
