E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2023-2024 OBS/Discussion
Ralph Wiggum replied to The Iceman's topic in Philadelphia Region
Don't count your chips just yet. Things are falling apart this week then the week you targeted looks well AN with a pattern relax. I mean, anyone can say they think the 3rd week of July will be hot with thunderstorms and probably be close too. Not a personal knock but you can't cherry pick a squall line to try and justify it as a clipper a week early. Not really the way it works. But let's see how the week plays out. Any snow, we take. I don't care who called it or how we get there tbh. -

If we get 2 snowstorms of 20" each in the first half of March, is that a success? Dead ass serious question. -

Jan Medium/Long Range Disco 2: Total Obliteration is Coming
Ralph Wiggum replied to Jebman's topic in Mid Atlantic
And thats the thing, the ens have been honestly pretty good at seeing the overall longwave setup at range. And we have had some decent looks. My frustration last week was that we just aren't cashing in when we get the better setups. And that is to be expected....to a degree. But, throw enough chances and eventually it will happen. This is why wall to wall winter from Dec 1-mid March is a myth....not the norm. -

Jan Medium/Long Range Disco 2: Total Obliteration is Coming
Ralph Wiggum replied to Jebman's topic in Mid Atlantic
In all seriousness tho, this seem to be progressing as a few have mentioned. Best chances of the season thus far middle January thru around the 21st then a relax thru the end of month with a reload into Feb with our chance for a bigger storm. The hope was we would cash in on the chances this week and some spots certainly will do that before the transition. Ens means are clear with the relax after the 21st and towards the end of the run (s) you can see the reload back to workable happening. GEPS has the best reflection of this. So, while we were/are hoping for something bigger this week after stepping back from the 16-17 potential, we do have a workable (not ideal) setup.late week before we relax. Ens means have been pretty decent with the large scale features in the LR, so we should see more chances again. We just gotta hang in. At least we aren't shitting the blinds right? -

Sad part is, the forecast 'cold stretch' is run of the mill cold now and moves out as fast as it moves in.

It's fine....everything is fine. The upcoming pattern is the KU look....I read it here. If not that one then the one after is it. The cutters will pave the wave....pattern progression. Patience. Buckle up. Fuck, give me more of those good meds ffs...

Do you think? They are in complete dissaray. AJ Brown deleted everything Eagles from his IG yesterday. Looks like he wants off the team now. What makes you think they are going to show and compete? Are they just playing opossum??

If that threat period fails and nothing discrete is showing in the MR at that time and the LR is in a 'relax'? Well,...it might be time.- 425 replies

I hope I'm wrong, I do. But believe me...when Doctor No shuts the door it is emphatic. There's always more room .
