2025-2026 ENSO

I should also add that the east doesn't even necessarily need a reversal because I this that the first half of March will be wintry, anyway. -

Early March was my last window. -

This, combined with the 50-75 shift south, is what killed me. This is a lesson that I'll take from this.....that band set up over ORH CO into S NH just like I thought it would, but it just wasn't very impressive. I think jan 2022 was like that , too. Could you provide a graphic to illustrate this? Thanks in advance. I need to get better at band/fronto diagnostics. I am too weak with that. -

Mid March is okay where I live...but too late for most..late March is even pushing it for me. May just be more like. final warming, similar to last year....too bad my the period earlier this month didn't end up working out like I had though. Our best bet would be getting this to be a "top-down" type of event, in which effects are virtually immediate. -

I'm not like the @raindancewx guy, who had most of the snow away from the east coast. Glad I went at least normal to somewhat above for snowfall on the east coast. I used 2014 because I thought it would be really fucking snowy in winter 2025-2026 where 95% of us live. Now we really have a "smiley face". -

Why? Did you see that band? How much did you get? At least this wasn't a mess-screw for me like Dec 2003, PD II and Jan 22....the storm was just to far south, This looks like a mess-screw for you, which is infuriating. -

Def not a net loss here, and drifting I seldom see...kind of like Boxing Day. 36" depth in some drifts. -

RAD shows it snowing here, but it isn't...fitting way to end. -

Well, congrats to those who got the goods. I obviously can't control the storm , but I can control how I react to it. I at least had the courtesy to remove myself from the thread and sleep in to spare you all the incessant bitching that I'm sure you subjected to by Cory. This was a rare shot not only to experience a 3 foot+ event, which I had never done, but with an antecedent pack of over foot. Sucks- -

Me, too....I just can't win....and it has nothing to do with any geographical limitations of my locale...it's just absolute buzzard's luck. That CT band I though could translate here, and it just redeveloped se of me. -
