  1. Yep, we need a high ratio fluff bomb straight from Manitoba. I'm far more partial to Maulers from Manitoba than clippers from Alberta.
  2. After looking at long range guidance from the overnight runs - I don't see much to be encouraged about. This is a rotten time to go into an extended period of dry weather, but the southern stream looks to be predominately closed for business going forward.
  3. Actually saw a report of Thundersnow in Austin...hope Cantore was there!
  4. Thank you for posting that. I always appreciate looking at those maps.
  5. We can hope that this 10 day image changes for the better...soon.
  6. You need to move south! Mine has rain/snow for Tuesday.
  7. Western part of North Carolina is a great place for snow - get out west of Wilkesboro and that area averages more snow in the winter than we do. They get upslope, far enough south to get into southern stream action, and far enough west to avoid changeover. My wife wants to retire to Boone - we'll see...
  8. MDT finished 2020 with an average temperature of 56.6, which ties 1998 as the warmest year on record in Harrisburg.
  9. I've always found it fascinating that Lancaster-based WGAL uses info from Harrisburg and not Lancaster. At least in most of Lanco, 1996 dropped more snow here than 2016 did. The 1983 storm dropped remarkably similar amounts in both locals - I measured 24.8" in the '83 storm. I don't remember 1945.
  10. At the very least, it's been a beautiful winter day. So nice to see nothing but blue skies - good for the soul today.
  11. As Big Ben of the Steelers would say, the Euro looks like poo.
  12. That's what I was saying earlier. This cloudy weather is somewhat depressing.
  13. Having established cold is one less thing to be worried about for sure. At the same time, we don't really need "cold" right now - we can swing this with average temps for the next several weeks. In January and the first half of February, I want moisture first and cold second. As long as we don't see cutters the next month or so, I like our chances. Get something under us and we'll likely be happy. If it's too cold, it's likely going to be too dry.
  14. Woke up on Saturday morning to a forecast of 2-4". Went to bed that night with a call for 12"+. Woke up Sunday morning and it was 20-30". By afternoon, it was up to 24-36". Final total = 30.5".
  15. 25 years ago today, our weather was anything but boring.
  16. I've gone on record here previously stating that I enjoy a nice dark, dreary day - but at some point can we at least have SOME sunshine? We're on a roll lately with cloudy days...
  17. I posted my question on my phone and couldn't see your signature. Thank you for responding. I'm sitting at 10.8" so those 2 small events you've had recently has put you on top.
  18. 18z GFS illustrates my fear from this morning perfectly. Northern stream energy pushes our system out to sea way south of us. Not saying that will happen, but the idea is gaining momentum...
  19. All rain here other than a few sleet pellets earlier.
  20. @showmethesnow great post this morning. Well thought and laid out in a way that is easy to understand. I guess we differ on thought regarding the northern stream impulse- you are correct in saying that it could kill this for us, which is why I said it would need to dig under and phase in. Otherwise, it's game over.
  21. I'm casually interested. Right now I'm concerned about both temps and the track. If we can get some northern stream energy to phase in south of our latitude, it's game on. I'm just not convinced that happens, and without it we'll be dealing with either a suppressed system, a warm one, or both.
  22. Had a nice period of sleet here, but no snow. Good for you!
  23. Just bought my wife the same thing for Christmas - I buy her iPhone's specifically for the camera as she loves to take pictures while we're walking. You took some great pics with a great phone.
