  1. We need that LP to be stronger than that...don't we? I'm thinking we need a deep system to create a favorable dynamic.
  2. While I think the chances for us to see snow this weekend is minuscule, it would at least be nice to have SOMETHING to track. Even if delivered the goods to our mountain friends it would be fun to have something ride up the coast... ...on the other hand, if it rained here from a coastal storm taking a perfect track at this time of year I might not find it so entertaining...
  3. This is what has been messing with my head now for some time. It has been nice - my wife and I were out on the local river trail yesterday and it was packed. It felt really good to be outside in a light sweatshirt. BUT... If beggars could be choosy I wish it was nice for walking like in...April. Or May. As nice as it was, as fun as it was...I kept thinking about how with each day we're marching through peak climo for wintry weather and well...it isn't exactly wintry.
  4. The wind is actually shaking our house right now. Winds don't really impress me but it is howling!
  5. We have a breeze but nothing special...maybe 10-20 mph?
  6. A few years ago we almost could have. When doc was honking it was time to go all in. Man have the times changed.
  7. Well Horst already punted next weekend's storm, saying that it's a rain storm, with only a long shot to get a rain to snow situation. I don't think he's idiotic?
  8. It really is...I've had so much fun I've taken my family 17 times since 1991. Never gets old and now that the kids are grown it's a great place for my wife and I have a different experience before grand kids start rolling in.
  9. Must be nice. What little snow I got last weekend was long gone before it even got cold.
  10. If that dude actually punted we might as well quit on snow until about 2025. That guy has a little bit of JB in his genes...
  11. Well, I guess it's something different from calling the tree removal service.
  12. Observation - it's never a good thing when you log in on a January morning and see that it's been 10 hours since the last post.
  13. Maybe we'll watch on the sidelines going forward as a couple of southern sliders bury the Carolinas. Why not?...those good folk have waited years for snow. It's their turn!
  14. Agreed, and that is why I said if you could take the GFS exactly as depicted...which of course we fully understand will NOT happen that way.
  15. With the 12z GFS track you would be plastered in paste. Maybe a bit tenuous for me, but no way that's mostly a rain storm for you. Right?
  16. I honestly don't know what to think about the next 6-8 weeks. I'm equally expecting 2" as I am 30". All we can ask for right now are chances...
  17. Yep, I was born in '65 and have Polaroids of me as a small kid (late 60s) standing outside with huge banks of snow on both sides of our driveway. Dad told me often as I got older that snow rarely melted until March.
  18. Thanks again. I knew it was godawful. I'm pretty sure I had even less than that.
  19. I'll pass this along to him. He's a freaking weather genius. Dude could easily carry a red tag.
  20. Thanks! How much did MDT record in 97-98? On CTP's site I only see records that go back to 1998-99.
  21. 1997 I believe was the pinnacle of winter weather futility. As I recall my largest snow that winter was 1.2"...
  22. At least the storm depicted on the 12z GFS valid 2/1 is a beast. To Bubbler's point, there's still no cold air to be found, but unlike this weekend's fiasco it's taking a good track (as depicted on THIS model run) and a 976 low pressure MIGHT deliver enough dynamics for some fun. That's a crap ton of if's though.
  23. Did you see the Walnut Street bridge "event" happen live? I remember watching ABC27. Rick Wagner and Alicia Richards had that amateur video on their newscast. I still get chills watching that thing slam into the Market Street bridge.
