1. 1993
2. 1996
3. 1983
4. 1978
5. 2016
The first 4 I listed all had other elements than snow, mainly strong winds and drifting. 2016 was a big dump of white gold but it was void of much wind. Honestly, I thought about putting '78 even higher. THAT was a beast!
I don't remember much about 78 but will google it.

Since I was gone for 15 years I will not give a top 5 but I will say that Jan 24/25 2000 would be in my top 2.
That's another one for sure.

yeah when its snowing in atlanta and the storm is just starting in your area.....buckle up buttercup. That was from a dynamics perspective, the most impressive....but as we all know about snow hounds....its all about the MBY totals... and when i get long duration events, I smile no matter what the tally is. Just love flakes flying.
Oh....and thanks for the mid afternoon derail. I've enjoyed it and am 1 step closer to wishing this dreaded hot ass mess of a summer/year away.
You and me both. I'll enjoy the cooler wave coming in soon for a while that is a for sure.

If memory serves, western york up to lebanon and points NW never tained in 93', (or much less i should say), as is often the case down here in the LSV warm spot.
Yep what I loved about 93 is we did flip to ice/sleet for a period of time and then went back over to snow. The dynamics were just incredible and again what I loved was Atlanta and points south were in on it as well.

isnt she a beaut??
That was insanely beautiful. I can't believe I forgot that one. I still remember 1993 that was when the weather channel was popular. LOL. Superstorm had all the elements to it and from the deep south to the Northeast.

WOW...Forgot about 2016! What a loop that was.

A little fun Rank your top 5 snowstorms in our area of all time:
#1 is a no brainer for me: Superstorm 1993.
#2 Blizzard of 96
#3 February 1983 Blizzard - Only because I was off school for at least a couple of days. :-)
#4 2011 Halloween Nor'easter - Just because it was Halloween.
#5 2003 - President Day Nor'easter.
#1 was the beast!

I smell rain but nothing in hand yet.
Sun is out here, nothing much of anything but heat.

Mason Dixon line is where you want to be right now if you want rain/storms.

Like I mentioned yesterday a 2 week break and we are into September. Maybe no more excessive heat who knows?
Tracking Fall weather systems I'm in.

That looks similar to the Anomaly charts I saw on the EC yesterday.
Yeah these guys are pretty good they are stationed in the Midwest. I think modeling wise we will hopefully see a week or 2 break from the excessive heat.

So far today has been a Delaware Valley special. Lots of activity in Philly and south Jersey ongoing, let's see if things start to pop around here soon.
Yep nothing much lighting up around here at all.

Looks like we get a break from the heat soon! I can't wait to open windows again and turn this d$mn A/C off. :-)

Another related issue is Pro Sports. NBA and NHL are basically throwing away the first 1/3 of their next season to finish the last one. And this is assuming we do not have a dramatic increase in Covid issues as it gets cooler. Owners, who are rich enough so no one should feel bad for them, are losing mega amounts of money. This year is changing everything going forward even if just to have better backup plans in place.
Yes that is the positive no doubt that will allow change to happen when things like this in the future occur maybe not my future but my kids. Agree 100%. And everything in sports will have an asterisk to it that it is unfortunate. But for the sports world and fans at least they are seeing something other than Korean Baseball or Cornhole Championships on ESPN.

That's what Micah Parsons said almost word for word...
Yeah whether you agree or not about canceling in the fall to try and play in the spring these NFL talented players would definitely not do it. Now you have the SEC and ACC medical experts saying it is safe to play in the fall so they may play yet. I am so disappointed not to see Parsons play again for PSU! But I respect and fully understand his decision. I would do the same.

I don’t see any school president wanting to expose the university to a lawsuit when a player suffers serious medical issues. I think it’s all a legality issue.
You are correct on the lawsuits no doubt. I think it is sad that the whole NCAA is not on the same page in these conferences. As with this Virus and what we saw with everything else every medical experts have their opinion with it. They are putting the players and coaching in the middle of it. And to play in the spring now? If I am a top NFL draft pick why would I play. I wouldn't. Just another sad 2020.

That was quite an event...fortunately, the very worst spared the city of Chicago. A lot of the severe damage was west of town and particularly back in western Illinois and Iowa.
Yeah I didn't see your post on it from yesterday but this is just crazy.

WOW...Another 2020 extreme. Winds over 100 MPH! 700 Mile Path. Geezus.

Just completely model watching an unlikely but not unheard of argument could be made that some people on here do not hit 90 again this year.
GFS looks pretty rainy on the 12z runs today.

EC has a Big Bertha Blocking high making the big difference. Perfect setup for a surprise Northern jump in a winter scenario.
Don't start to tease us already! LOL.

That is what I loved about 93 south to north it was a beast inland south especially.
