  1. I'm cool with getting all our snow climo between December 20 and Jan 4th. We can torch after that if it's guaranteed White Christmas with even some snow on snow. This is the way.
  2. Hmmm, I don't think that's a reporting option in mPING. Might want to contact the devs.
  3. Snowing again in NE Carroll County. You're going to jackpot Round #2.
  4. I've got snow grains in Reisterstown.
  5. Snow accumulating in Lineboro and at the cam site.
  6. Decent vis drop on the Rt. 30 cam. Actual fluff falling from the skies coming for Bentley Springs.
  7. @mappy the MD DOT Cam on Rt. 30 @ the PA line is snowing. You're gonna get snow! https://chart.maryland.gov/video/video.php?feed=a5ffabd8008200d30050fa36c4235c0a
  8. 12z RAOB from IAD is bone dry up to 700mb...probably hurting things https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/soundings/20120912_OBS/
  9. Finally got AWIPS to work on my home PC, thanks to SteveCop and JWSmith. Really nice stuff. https://github.com/jaredwsmith/nws-unidata-awips-compat You need a subscription from Allisonhouse to get the data, it's $19/month. https://www.allisonhouse.com/awips/configure
  10. That's a good plot...even the upper percentiles keep the AO near neutral or ever so slightly positive. I think @tombo82685 or @Rainshadow did some research and found that a -AO in December generally correlates to a -AO for most of the winter.
  11. @mappy we're gonna get some snow today
  12. One heck of a sunrise this morning. Winter sun rise/set is the best.
  13. Agreed. The Pacific sets up the incoming trajectory. If it's coming from a bad angle, we're kinda cooked from the start.
  14. Agreed. December 2005 and 2009 were exceptions in this regard.
  15. 12, 15, 17, or 31 would really calm the room
  16. Energy transfer off Chincoteague at the same time. Storm should generate it's own cold air after that. Locked and loaded!
  17. Move that thing 50 miles SE and everyone wins.
  18. If we end up with less snow, we reserve the right to sacrifice you to the gods for next winter.
  19. Yes. By this time last year, it was clear we were headed to a record low snowfall winter. This year people are jumpy after having nearly 3 consecutive shut outs years. With that said, the AO is definitely trending in a better direction and while it's been some shots of cool air, we aren't in a sustained 50s to 70s in December. There is absolutely nothing worse than 60s on Christmas in the mid latitudes (well except for 34 and a driving rain).
