Bad news folks I’m way upstate New York like 100 miles north of Albany in the mountains and even up here it’s snowing nice but it ain’t sticking temperatures are just too warm! pathetic

Its probably going to puke snow Sunday and not stick to hardly anything outside of the elevated areas, seen this story too many times. Its just not going to be cold enough. That's the worst. I'd rather just have rain. Maybe could start to stick Sunday night, but by then its wasted a lot of the precip. Bad timing with this one.

Yeah- the NWS accumulation map looks reasonable. The model maps do not. Temps during the day Sunday don't support those accumulations outside of the elevated areas IMO. I think a lot of people will see white rain.

My chasing interests have shifted northward. I am thinking Albany.

QUick question, is most of the accumulating snow coming from the first batch during the day on Sunday or the 2nd batch Sunday night? Looked to me like temp issues and white rain might be a concert with the first batch with the second batch being for for NW Jersey without temp issues later at night. I am just a mid Atlantic poster looking for clarification on where and when to chase this one and it appears to be a little tricky. Can't decide if I am after the 1st or second part of the storm. If I am going to NY State or NW Jersey. Thanks!

Off topic. But On Dec 31st at 2am we did the 13 mile march from Trenton to Princeton. Full gear and muskets sling. I did the whole thing, didn't once need to get in the chase car. I was proud of myself. My body held up. Without sleep, my mind started to go. I was thinking and saying things that didn't make sense. 40 white dudes dressed in 18th century clothes walking through Trenton at 2am with guns just as the bars are letting out. Can you imagine the reaction that got? I can!

Disagree personally. If you aren't sad when we don't get snow. Why are you here? There is nothing wrong with venting. We have threads for it. It gets removed in the model thread. So at this point, complaining about the complainers is some type of moral high road superiority thing. Clearly.

I am not making the argument that last week wasn't good and that people shouldn't have enjoyed it. I enjoyed it, and made tons of positives posts on it. Go back and look. I was nothing but positive. I am simply saying that there is nothing wrong with being frustrated with going back to a blow torch pattern right after; A shut the blinds pattern, and people trying to claim we are now in fact "spoiled" and we should "know our climo" when in fact we are well below average. I guess what I am saying in, the people who COMPLAIN ABOUT THE COMPLAINERS are actually far worse than the complainers themselves. Also- this is the panic room. Find me one, just one post this year where I complained in the model thread. It doesn't exist.

Yeah- I have nothing wrong with celebrating and enjoying the last week. I just think some are like "know you climo" suddenly when in fact our climo is still well below average.

*takes a glance at stats** We average about15 inches of snow a year. So we are only about half to AVERAGE. Its truly hilarious that 1 week of winter and 8 inches of snow totally erases the last 8 years for you all and you somehow think we are doing great. LOL!

People act like our little 1 week of winter where we got 8 inches of snowfall suddenly makes up for the last 8 years of garbage. It doesn't. We are still below average for the year even.

This is the panic room. Save your endless complaining about the complainers for the model thread! As for me, I am chasing a foot+ snowstorm somewhere into NY State this weekend. I have haven't left winter. Im just leaving this garbage climo area.

I think our one week little snowfest might have been it. Heck that might be it for the next 5-10 years the way things are now. My thoughts have now turned towards a chase. Hope upstate NY can score next weekend. Gfs hinted it at off and on. If so…. I’ll be there

Psu just literally went from best pattern ever to shut the blinds in the course of a week. That to me just shows how pointless LR tracking truly is. Sure- you might have spotted a storm. But isn't that broken clock right twice a day? How many LR storms become non events, I'd say a good 95%?

So again we literally go from greatest pattern ever couldn’t draw it better to shut the blinds. shows how fickle and pointless lr tracking is. But we all know shut the blinds verifies.

Yeah- to be fair, this storm is a waste for me. I wish it wasn't happening. I can't get any enjoyment out of it due to certain circumstances. I curse the timing of it so bad. Thats a personal problem. SO I am already passed it. But the Tuesday one was nice.

PSU a week ago: OMG I couldn't draw a better pattern if you asked me too. PSU today: Well we torch the next two weeks, but then......just you wait. How many times do we have to see this story before we know the ending?

Its not that we aren't patient people here. Its thats delayed but not denied usually morphs into=Denied.

Nice little overperforming storm. It does concern me that we can't get accumulating snows on the street with temps in the 20's during the day. Its kind of amazing how wet this storm was considering how cold it was. I don't remember that in the past. 20's= cold powder blowing across the street.

A very light dusting up on Iron Hill in Newark de. This is looking northeast up I-95 towards Wilmington (which is visible on a clear day). I love coming to this spot because you can look upon thousands of people and crazy construction and be totally alone.

I want to know how it can be below freezing and snow melts on contact like this…Got to love this area!

On the JB stuff; Welcome to 20+ years ago. So many stories. Anyway....I am hoping we can still pull out something with this Friday storms, even if its another 1-3. After that, I grow concerned about the pattern.

I am saving this image. It has a 99% chance of not happening, but its pretty to look at.

I would gladly take 1-2 inches. Thats all it takes for a jebwalk with a cup of hot chocolate. Heck maybe even a telework day! Cheery up. Lets make it happen please!

Looks like rain for I-95 incoming.
