    she knew about my snow habits before she married me

    The 4-10" on 1/6 was noteworthy because of the 3+ weeks it stuck around. Another 4-10" immediately followed by rain is like being served takis in a bag after lobster

    Freezing rain outside the mountains isn't very visually impressive and just makes driving nasty af. Wish we could transfer QPF to next week

    The control in a variational DA system like the IFS -aka ECMWF- isn't a reference state. It's the modal solution. Imagine a Gaussian curve with each regular ensemble member acting as an equally likely sample. The control isn't just some regular old member. It's the peak of the Gaussian

    On the bright side there is something to be said about the lack of a January torch this year. Current guidance doesn't suggest we'll get above 50 until February. Looking through climate records, would be the first time in at least 25 years without a monthly high above 55 degrees for a lot of places

    Never seen someone passed up for a grant by snow. Never had a paper rejected by snow. Never spent months coding snow that doesn't work. Science sucks. Snow rules

    Low of 7 IMBY. cold killed my car battery this morning. One of maybe three times I've ever been annoyed by low temps

    lots of subtleties with snowcover. New snowpack is highly insulating because of air pockets, which means lower skin temps than old snowpack due to less heat draw from the soil. Older snowpack is radiatively similar to wet soil but with higher albedo.

    if this wasn't an advective cooling night I'd be pissed. At least that snow is still working for our benefit tn

    Feeling better and better about convincing my fiance to honeymoon in Massachusetts. Can't wait to escape this shallow-snow hellscape

    Got about 1" of low ratio snow mixed in with an initial layer of slushy sleet, on top of about 1.5" from 1/6. Disappointed, but the pack we have here is now armored up, battle hardened, and ready to throw down. Will be a solid sheet of ice by tomorrow

    respect for fallen snowpack. F

    I will never in my life complain about a dry boundary layer again. 100X better than this rain/snow mix scenario
