My Climo is 61 since the great 1992 era began.  And I’ve personally measured since 2002.  I (at least in the old days) get Far more snow than neighboring Woonsocket or Providence or Pawtucket)  

Your climo is not 61. Foster RI is like 60.

DC will reach close to my seasonal total from this storm, and I’ll be watching cirrus float by.

This winter has positively sucked outside of 1 great event. Cold and constant misses, the worst 

DC probably isn’t getting shit from this, it’s a coastal scraper setup. The pattern doesn’t really support a big snow there. We are seeing some consolidation on guidance now, I expect the GFS to bump east at 18z and come in line with the rest of the guidance.

Huh?  You get two feet in a single storm and it is called a dream????  Negative Nancy.

Im someone with high expectations, even winters like 2021-2022 that had a lot of snow didn’t really impress me since there was no staying power. Based on our seasonal snow (so far) relative to normal, temps and snow cover, this winter has impressed me more than any winter we have had since the legendary 14-15 winter.

All this talk of averages reminds me that the local mets mentioned boston is at 41" and we're only about 9 inches from normal.  When did KBOS go to 50 for an average?  Most of my life it has been about 40", maybe 43? Did the post 90s kick in?

Staying power winters in SNE are much less common than winters w/ great snowstorms.  But it's good you at least acknowledge this winter is good or decent.  Now compare that to CoastalWx, who seems drowning in the cesspool no matter what happens! :D

Going from 1981-2010 to 1991-2020 normals raised BOS avg snowfall 7" to 49".  That's how lame the snowfall was in the 1980s and how great it was in the new 30-yr period.  Such an avg snowfall increase is quite remarkable IMHO, esp. for a coastal location that battles "marine infections" often!

FWIW: while still VERY far away from GFS solution, UKMET 12z vs. 00z changed upper level look quite a bit.

Having said that, end result could still be the same with as we've seen time and time again this winter re: vort messing with track well off the coast...

the funny thing is that when you look under the hood, the ECMWF and GFS are really not that different. this is such a high sensitivity setup

The question is does the EURO look like everything else now?

Check out how much more robust the omega block is on the GFS - I think that is a main player. GTFO confluence and let that ridge hike

 Climo for season though?  Yes if nothing happens til spring it’s sub par but you could easily reach climo with another solid 6 weeks left.
