A balmy 70 here this Am as we prepare for a wet next two days (as @paweather pointed out a bit ago).

 

 

Yep, looks like it tonight into tomorrow and then a good sunshine weekend with decent temps.

I've said it before, I stray to discuss patterns and snow opps.  Like Blizz....its what I love....the hunt.  Sometimes it gets a little quiet and or gloomy here, so I go in search of convo.  Not bashing, just callin it as it is sometimes.  We all know what I'm talking about. 

I'm trying to to my part in being a good sport this year (during warm months), and hope we have lots to chat about in CTP this year.  Mild Nina is early look, and I will take that for now.  As I alluded to last year, I feel analogs/indices are not quiet as useful as they used to be as it feels like the base state (GW or ???) may be warming enough that it's literally "up in the air".  I worry that the MA which is historically the battleground for snow, may be eeking north as we lose the cold in the arctic.  JMO's but we'll know soon enough...and as i get older, I enjoy the 4 seasons more than i used to.....but NOTHING will ever beat those first fresh air masses of fall, the leaves, and the excitement for winters arrival....even when its a ratter like last year (for LSV it was anyways).

 

I do the same thing as well, there are some on that board that offers a lot of great information. I do miss waking up to Blizz and his excitement from last night's models depicting a snowstorm. Before you know it, it will be here. I am still in shock at myself excited for yesterday's Trop Storm but this is the year now that is turning me into a 4 season guy. Sorry guys. in advanced. :-(

I did not mean to skip you but Blizz is the more ardent poster.  You stray to the MA from time to time :-)

That's Right Bubbler, Nut does stray over to the MA board I am guessing just to get some laughs. 

Another good Soaker Friday per GFS?

Well......What is the next Summer System to track

Just like that.....Brightening and Sun is starting to pop up.

Very true, we had better enjoy this event because the rest of this season will probably be a disaster!

Exactly but we are getting closer to Fall!

This is fun... should I keep going?

Why not?

Oh no, it just stopped here!

This will probably be a bust!

How would @canderson put this in January....”I bet MDT will not get 1 inch out of this!”

Getting the snow blower fired up with that fetch of moisture. Maybe it will clear away puddles I’m gonna try since I didn’t need to start it in winter 2020

Thanks!

Take Care!

We did not waste any time here with Virga here in Marysville. Light to moderate flakes( I mean rain drops...darn it!) started here within the last hour.

All surfaces are covered and yes, the side roads have already caved!

This flow of moisture is so impressive.

It started here it looks white but I am dreaming. :-(

It's not truly a winter vibe until @Wmsptwx stops in and asks you 6 times if you think significant snow will make it into his 'hood. 

Then, and only then...is it winter.

Lol since we're into winter references, this is like watching the Sus Valley locked in for a sure 18-24" while hoping I scrape together enough to verify an advisory. If that early stuff ends up all east of here I might end up being pretty well cooked for seeing much of anything out of this whole event. 

LOL!

This has to be a NEW RECORD for us, Love it!

To be fair Im kinda sitting here fidgeting like its a winter storm. I want rain so bad my yard looks so sad. I just bought this house a year ago and got the lawn looking decent and then summer killed hurts my soul lol

Exactly. That is how I am following this storm a typical coastal winter fest but this will help my yard out in a more greener direction.

Who'd have thought this sub forum would be so stoked over rain lol

LOLLLLL Never me. My goodness I never show up like this ever until November. But my lack of posting and tracking in Winter is fueling my tracking now 

I wonder if I will run into dry air aloft?

To me the most interesting thing about it raining right now is that the storm is still a fair bit off shore.  Someone smarter than me can point out that our rain is only indirectly related to Isiasis /moisture interacting with a front but it would not be raining now without its presence so a storm located quite a bit S/E of the SC coastline is making it rain in PA.  

Agreed that moisture feed is insane how many miles from the SE Coast to us.

Speaking of snow we would be talking about the T-Pike closing about this point but not totally out of the world to think at least the N/E Extension and areas to the East of KOP could close to trucks. 

Agreed with the amounts they will see it is likely closures.

Mostly cloudy here. Stop hogging all of the moisture. 

Bubbler always did this with Snow so now he has to with rain.

Steady rain has commenced.  Isiasis 2020. 

It's Startin! Cloud deck heavy here just within the hour.

If that band/line in Virginia/Maryland holds together into PA it looks like we could get a pretty heavy rain before we even get near the actual storm

That is a pretty decent band, it would give us a pregame event.

Nam 3K matches up fairly well though the Nam is a tiny bit more West and keeps high end totals between 4-8" vs. 8-12".

WSW just lit up.
