Silver Meteor Posted yesterday at 12:04 PM Share Posted yesterday at 12:04 PM Cold and cloudy for the East, warm, sunny and dry for the West, that pretty much describes this winter. Snowfall in the Rockies has been much below normal with some resorts now closing early. Brighton, Utah which I follow regularly has had 233" of snow so far while the full season average is 500". Down in the Salt Lake Valley my cousin says only 1" this winter. Could be water shortages ahead. Currently an historic heat wave is underway with temps at monthly extremes. Here in Eastern North Carolina 28F yesterday and 30F this morning, very cold for us. https://www.powder.com/news/lake-tahoe-resorts-close-heat-wave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted yesterday at 01:05 PM Share Posted yesterday at 01:05 PM Even the sun makes the cold feel kinda warm at this point... still wouldn't mind biking to work without being bundled up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of bike do you have? Got a trek fx 2 recently and it def beats my Roscoe on pavement. Could use a slightly lower gear ratio for some of the more punchy climbs, though.

Clearing to the south, but the blue ridge has different plans. Central VA might be an underrated place to live. They’re far enough south and east to be significantly less impacted by the clouds produced by the Great Lakes and Appalachian’s, but far enough north to get snow every now and then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the wrong guy for this conversation actually haha - I just take the DC Bikeshare bikes! I have like a ~7minute bike commute so I haven't invested in any real gear minus a good helmet. Wouldn't recommend the non-electric D.C. bikes for anything other than super flat terrain. Super clunky bikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when you see the sounding from Monday without any of the wind profiles it becomes painfully clear that we were cooked with our thermal profile if we wanted severe. Had two different CIN areas and horrific lapse rates with next to no CAPE. Also hope this pen-paper diagram brought back some memories for our mets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why hand analysis is so vital, especially for potentially significant setuos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think part of the issue with why we couldn't get any storms to really build was that second area of CIN? Seems like we managed to get storms to begin development but struggle to get past the shower stage so maybe that's the reason why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes thats a distinct possibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
