34° -SN Starting to stick a bit. Trying to stay safe.

The main precip is moving in and starting as sleet.

Nice. 36.1° and dropping. Do a “sounding” yet?

I wish Jesus was born in July.

Are you planning on grafting next spring? I need to order some of the things I want soon. I want more disease resistant european pears.

Yeah who knows if the NORLUN will pan out, but I think it’s cool to see hires models pick them out of an otherwise “larger” scale inverted trough now.

I hear ya. But they just posted this a week ago… https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/25/weather/snowfall-temperatures-climate-change-water/index.html …which gives a totally different look at megalopolis snow climo. The problem is the actual climate change data isn’t flashy enough for the media to grab “a-ha” headlines. Those of us that understand the science know what’s going on and understand the effects. But I feel a lot of these hype headlines, especially after 1 crappy season for the megalopolis, hurts the cause. You don’t have to go too far back to find epic snowy winters for BOS, NYC, and DCA so I’d rather not factor in one specific season into any climate debate. It just gives the deniers fuel for their fire. Just my $0.02

Back to the here and now… 36° and -SHRA Most models have been flipping the column to snow by midday. Like Chris said last night, I kinda like the depth increase in this for totals. That would put us at 2-3” on the NAM. That’s a nice little norlun feature modeled on the 3k for coastal locations.

They had an epically shitty winter last season. But the 600+ day streak is so CNN since it includes two full warm seasons on each bookend.

That NYC 1” snowfall stat even triggers me every time I see it. The point stands…there’s been little to no snow down there, but the “no 1” snowfall” stat for NYC is disingenuous.

00z Nammy is snowing here midday tomorrow at 33-34F. Could be a little sloppy the first few hours. Currently 36.6F with FG

With December not looking great you’ve already lost 2 winter months. Punxy Phil cancels the rest of winter 2 months from today. That only leaves you January for appreciable snow and you’re only at a dusting on the season now. Not good.

Wolfie is starting the season off rabid. Hopefully we don’t have to put him down at some point.

I’ll take pics for you

Already up to 51° with sun. Sneaky little torch day to start Dewcember.

Not wild about the primary holding that strong into upstate NY and already being on the edge here, but it can be done. I feel like there’s more room to go wrong than right from this point for CNE. Nammy is glop here, but snowier into the deeper wedging toward dryslot.

That’s 925…probably a flip to snow for you at some point in the 2nd half

A little surprised there’s not much in the way of a mixed ptype zone in the soundings. It’s pretty much riding the line isothermal here. That subtle BD and CADing out ahead of the primary is the real key for snow here.

Damn you beat me to it.

Kp just shot up to 7 with a strong south Bz…sure enough right after sunrise.

Goofus with a lean toward the euro for Monday.

Yeah I doubt that’s the “big” one.

fyi I’m not saying 18z euro was the “blink”.

Later developing secondary this run.

I think the euro will “blink”. 18z looks like a trend toward meh here.
