  1. No surprises there given the looks headed into the last week of Dec.
  2. No shortage of chances for the foreseeable future. No real specific tracking threats at range yet...but keep those progged looks and we will connect soon enough. Encouraging to see HL blocking continue AND even more encouraging is the sudden stream of STJ activity being forecast.

  4. For being a Nina, sure are seeing a fair amount of STJ disturbances moving across in the LR.
  5. Seeing mention of anafront snows for next week. They rarely work out....most here know this. However, in my area NW of Philly we have had 2 anafront snows already this season. We almost never see it. Neither was anything to write home about. What's my point? There is a tendency already this winter for those anafront scenarios to work. If there was a year we could score on the backside of a front with a wave trailing, this is probably the one.
  6. JMA and CMC want to hang energy back over TX midweek as Arctic front presses thru the Northeast. Both move a low out of the Mississippi Valley around Christmas day.
  7. JMA is on board for a wintry threat on Christmas Day. In the CMC camp holding energy back in TX while arctic front swings thru then bringing a low out of the Mississippi Valley.
  8. 12 CMC in the LR has a low forming in the Mississippi Valley with a strong dome of arctic HP over Eastern Canada. Gives a threatening icy look for 2nd part of Christmas Day.
  9. Taking a mental rest for a few days. Brain is tired....I forgot how exhausting this hobby can be at times! Soooo, when's the next threat?
  10. Prior to the flip to sleet, I measured 6" of fluff here in Warminster. I cleared the measuring board and woke to an additional 2.75" of fresh snow/sleet on the board Does that count as a grand total of 8.75" then? Just trying to be accurate.
  11. I keep expectations in check especially when being bullseyed at 5+ days out and this early in the season.
  12. Very pleased with this one. Mid-December and a very traditional winter storm around these parts...thump, mix, slot....maybe a few flakes to wrap things up later. We usually see 2 or 3 of these on avg every season. Im fine with having one under our belts before the solstice. We're on the board and on our way!
  13. 6" fluff before the flip. The sleet is factored as liquid equivalent I assume? But at what ratio?
  14. Warm punch was modeled on the NAM since Sunday actually. Most of us shrugged it off as the NAM at range but it led the way....again.
  15. Up to 5.5" here. Flakes easily 2" diameter at times. Can honestly say I have never seen snow like this before, not this size. Eta: Pingers mixing in
  16. 2"/hr rates here easily. Puking marshmallows attm!
  17. Its not, it is snowing heavily in Walli gford, Southern Delco. Same here (moderate) in warminster. Going sledding with the kids in the half inch we have....they r driving me nuts lol.
  18. One post says it is overperforming in DC, the next says its underperformed. Totally location dependent. Feeling better for where I'm at we can grab a quick half foot
  19. If thats the current radar that sleet line is wayyyyyy off.
