  1. Precipitable Water Amount. As @Bob Chill has said several times, we're at one of the drier times of the year so it's not surprising that we aren't seeing big dog snowstorms at D15.
  2. January is the low point for PWAT climo in these parts. Sure you can get a big dog like 1996 or 2000, but the big game typically is found in February. Agreed. What a beaut.
  3. If you're speaking about temps, I would agree. So far this winter, every advertised torch has been muted as we get into the short and medium range.
  4. It won't take much for the 4th to be a legit advisory level event, then we get cold air on fresh snow. Would be like the winters of the early 2000s.
  5. 12z EPS mean has -15 air creeping into NW Maryland towards the end of the run and what appears to be another reload coming down from Canada.
  6. This is just about perfect. I cannot find anything wrong with this.
  7. My window for real action is 1/6 and beyond. As many others here have said, the 1/4 wave appears to be the framework for a very workable pattern for many. If we have to downsize or shift that event to set up the pieces in the medium range, then I'm game.
  8. ^This. There's nothing more depressing than one big storm that you know is going to melt off in a few days and then peak winter climo is 55 and sunny.
  9. Agreed. As it stands now, is we score on 1/4 it would be a boom scenario. We do have decent cold air arriving from a fresh source region with this event, so it would not take a lot for us to score a decent advisory-level event.
  10. Quite anxious to see the 12z Euro, EPS, and GEFS come in. We might have the first legit winter window in several years opening up before our eyes here.
  11. Perfect. Cold and light/mod event after light/mod event. Yea baby. Griteater, "classic boot pattern. Woof"
  12. 12z GFS is plenty cold for the wave on the 4th. Whatever falls would 100% accumulate.
  13. So, uh, the 12z GFS is tying to bring back the 1/4 event.
  14. Wow that's much better than I thought at 805 and the surface. Sign me up. Going to be interesting to see how good this Euro AI model is this winter.
  15. Best track is to see the primary go into western Kentucky or Tennessee and die a quick death.
  16. ^primary low is way, way too far west, IMO. Looks like mix to cold rain.
  17. Pretty rare to see Tomer honking this much. Usually he's as pessimistic as me.
