Ohhh yes...I was just thinking about that storm! I was up late (as usual) and saw some of the action with those rates! Awesome storm!

I see. Now what was it that last night's EURO did?

I wasn't trying to...was just asking hypothetically if we were to see something like that, would it be a good thing or a bad thing--not whether it would actually happening or not. I see the snark game is high today...lol

At least last night's EURO didn't show a cutter...so there is that difference, lol

What would that mean, exactly? Another cutter?

Hey I think I can take the EURO...Now shows suppression to the south a la the Canadian (but later). Thought it was intriguing that both EURO and GEM also tried to have a low off the coast at hour 240. Now of course hour 240 and may be a fantasy quirk, but just odd. Now I'll let the more experience met minds weigh in on what can or can't work, lol

Does the +++++AO (yuck...gotta wash my mouth out with soap) correlate to the strong PV?

I continue to believe that...if we were to pull out a miracle snow or something...and it is enough for us to shovel...it'll be a foot, I'm telling ya. Problem is the odds are still long. Just saying though...with a fluke, or us getting lucky with timing or whatever...we already know that it would likely be more than enough moisture. So I think we either fluke and get a foot, or continue on the way we have (with maybe a couple mangled flakes at best). Hard to see it being an in between 5-8 or something...not in a year like this, lol But again, long odds atm...not saying or pinning any hope on something...just a guess on what might happen if we get a miracle, lol

Advancing faster towards doom or a sliver of winter hope? Lol

Now wait a minute, we just watched this last week...is the GFS gonna fail the same way two weeks in a row? Lol Now that would be truly pathetic (and it's even the same day of the week! If it indeed plays out like that...somebody is clearly trying to troll us, lol)

Now that's just wrong man, lol WHY?

I'm going to guess 97-98 had more teases than this year Did it? Now I was only 7 so I don't remember a bunch, but from what I've heard...there was a whole lot of nothin', lol

I'll take it at this range...lol That high is in the usual cutter zone!

And another question...What is this biggest "thread the needle"/fluke storm we every got in a completely hostile pattern?

Now is this similar to what the other models (outside of the Euro that nailed the actual outcome) were doing with this week's rainer at first? (or was that some other convoluted setup)

What I don't understand is why the other models fell for the trick last week, lol

Okay I've gotta ask...exactly how old are you? (I have been curious due to how you often mention not getting any younger and such...lol)

Local met Vytas Reid on here rubbing salt in the wound...outlining how much snow we'd have if all this rain were frozen. Nice one, dude...(along with repeated emphasis that we were "rainy not snowy") That was probably the most depressing local news forecast I've ever heard...oof

Nah I think he's kinda the opposite...he actually doesn't do weather hype (he even says it on the top of his Twitter page, lol) I follow him on Twitter--he's pretty straightforward, imo

Well, I don't think it's worth it now until at LEAST 7 days out...am interested in why Cranky likes that period of time though.

Who knows...get back to me if it's still there on Friday, lol (and even then I'll only bat half of an eye...)

March 2018: 6.7" (but 3 inches from the storm) November 2018: 1.7" January 2019: 7.8" (but only 4.8" from the storm that gave DC a foot)

Lol Yeah I know. Sometimes I forget to specify my home measuring station of BWI

True...I don't know of a another stretch where you could count on a 12" storm every 3-4 years...and a two-foot every 6-7 years. We had been able to time that with a watch...but, barring a bit of a miracle, it looks like that stretch may end this year... And I'm well aware of the battle zone...but even around here...a year like this is particularly rough (and now it's been 4 years since the last big one...and we've only had to shovel once in the last 4 years)

Okay...so then what happened in the following year? (2012-13) Nina? (looks like that was crappy...but with 8.7 inches instead of 1.8, lol)
