  1. ^weak wave riding a fresh airmass...we can score easily in those events.
  2. Baltimore TV mets posting a Euro OP 1104 hour snow map on social media.
  3. Once again showing the trough near Hawaii and at least a lobe over the TPV on our side of the globe. Nice.
  4. 18z GEFS gets the NW suburbs on the board with a slushy coating to perhaps 2" above 800 ft next week. Even the immediate NW suburbs would see TV Snow with the current advertisement.
  5. 18z GFS is definitely good for a quick coating of snow for most areas. Hope this holds. At least we're inside 200 hours now. If we see this persisting come Sunday evening, then we're definitely looking at something.
  6. Thoughts on that west coast trough? Maybe the pattern relaxing for a time?
  7. True, but one glimmer of hope is that we are under 200 hours now. This isn't some 300+ HR plus fantasy.
  8. ^right there is an absolutely classic ridge bridge. Also, look NW of Hawaii...another trough building in.
  9. What happened during that event? Is this site the DCA of New England?
  10. Bro 32" seasonal total at DCA? I'm going with 9" in the CWG contest. Holy ****
  11. Thank you both. Very insightful analysis and visualizations.
  12. Love your Calvin & Hobbes avatar. They loved snow and so do I. Interesting how our two best El Nino winters both followed the December 5th rule.
  13. If we can get some snow along the Blue Ridge it should help mitigate the wildfire risk. There are still a half dozen active fires.
  14. Also good to see that trough NW or N of Hawaii and another trying to load up near Japan. Maybe that one cools the SSTs and help re-aling the PDO domain?
  15. During La Nina years, the Pacific is pretty zonal and floods the CONUS with zonal puke. The EAMT can enhance that and just take us from bad to worse.
  16. Looks like the medium to long term guidance is starting to pick up on the consequences of the EAMT event that @brooklynwx99talked about.
  17. If we get to MLK day with IAD, BWI, and DCA not recording at least 1" of snow on the season, then we are in big time trouble.
  18. I was at Millersville University from 2005 - 2011 (undergrad and grad school). The longest snowpack that I ever saw was post Valentine's Day 2007 storm. Truly, an event to remember. We went from snow to ice/rain, then outright vodka cold. Students were walking on top of the ice pack for several days and the Susquehanna River froze over so much that people were 4-wheeling near Rt. 999 & Rt. 441.
  19. This would be good news for forecasting in areas of the globe that have limited surface observations and rely heavily on remote sensing technologies such as satellite and aircraft. I could see this type of forecasting aiding in other areas such as the ENSO and polar domains. Imagine having a more accurate forecast of the morphology of the polar vortex even out to 30 days.
  20. For snow lovers, here is your chance to get some early season flakes in the next 10 - 14 days. A great discussion courtesy of @brooklynwx99
