stormy

You could be exactly right! As you say, "we shall see"

At 7 am, I said that the old timey Euro can't find the storm. It's still looking. This is very early at nearly 5 days out. It might still find it.

To be exact, March 10, 1958. 12.5 inches at Staunton.

Though I have not looked at it, your description is similar to the 6z GFS.

yeah, the 6z EURO is the lightest of the bunch, strings everything out too much over 2 days. Hopefully it will consolidate with 12z.

I'm sorry if I caused anyone any great consternation with my stark realism. No malice was intended. Cheer Up! Most of the models seem invested for Sunday. But, its probably not wise to participate in any tail gate parties until Saturday.

yeah! First impressions are not always lasting impressions. It was suppressed at 114 but the cold press lagged allowing too much energy to scoot up the wov This morning at 06z that primary over at Charleston need to be down at Charlotte. The AI deterministic really slams us as well as the GEM. They must have tweaked the AI Ensemble. Finally, the poor old timey EURO really can't find the storm.

You are also not a center of the forum. You are only an intruder who has no credibility. I'm sorry, but you are fake.

GFS coming in a little suppressed at 18z but still a winner

That is wonderful! Gods creatures need a break

You will be OK. Please listen to me. Model cooking is hallucinogenic Nonsense.............................. I have You covered........................

The GFS is a huge impact to the possibility.

.55" rain last 24 hrs. Very close to the 7 model blend from last Thursday.

This is exactly what I have been complaining about for weeks now on the ensemble mean while others have been trying to defend them.

Listen "dude" If I had wanted to "cherry pick" I could have picked 09/10 and 63 inches or 95/96 and 66 inches and compared those to those poor/poor pitiful 50's when it didn't snow according to psu. Gee, We have been lead to believe that it always snowed a lot more before 1970. Gotta leave the 50's out of that equation........................ Listen dude, regarding DCA dropping from 25 to 14 in a hundred years. Did you ever hear of UHI?

95-96 was 66 96-97 was 21.5

All this talk about 1970 and snow or rain because of 2 degrees is quite amusing. 2 degrees cannot be used 50 years later to decide rain or snow. That is a fool-hearty venture. Many other parameters are involved. 50 years ago some winters produced a lot of snow, others did not. It will be that way 50 years into the future. Much of this winter has been plenty cold for snow but we have been locked into a long-term serious drought which has almost certainly been a factor. In 1956, Staunton received 8.6 inches of snow. The average annual for the past 40 years has been 24 inches. I did not cherry pick 1956. 1952 only received 6.2" of snow. In 1976, Staunton received 15.3 inches. In 1996 Staunton received 21.5" In 2016 Staunton received 24.5" Lets relax, be positive and look forward to 2-21 thru 2-23.

Be careful with "fools gold". I got into hot water last week with that term!!!! Consistency counts for something. This is the second run for AI liking next Sunday/Monday.

You are hilarious!! Do you need help?? I am very concerned about your mental stability. I'm guessing the temperature was below 50 at 9 pm. Below 33 at 2 am And below 32 at 5 am.

On Oct. 9, 1979 in Staunton it was 70 degrees. From 2 am that night until noon on the 10th, it snowed 9 inches.

15 degrees early this morning.

Chuck: The CPC agrees with you. The PDO is a significant contributing issue to the pattern. They issued the latest 3 - 4 week outlook yesterday for Feb. 28 - Mar. 13. This predicts warmer than normal and drier than normal for eastern portions of our region with normal precip. for western portions.

14 degrees and calm this morning.

I hope your right!!! If the long-term pattern persists into the spring, the lawn mowers can be retired, water use restrictions will be common and many folks will suffer a loss of water in private wells. The water table has dropped 22 ft. since June in Augusta County.

Hello again my friend: I suggest that the NWS idea of limited CAD was "wrong' : This would create support for the AI solution. The EURO AI deterministic is fine. But the EURO AIFS ensemble is not ready for Primetime. Maybe next winter, but not this year.
