  1. Pattern is just so dry…gotta find a way to get next week to turn into a minor event like BChill said. Would really be a waste to not get at least a stat padder/snow topper out of this Arctic pattern.
  2. First time I’ve left my place since Saturday due to a cold and busy work schedule combo. Looks more like it snowed than sleet..so that’s fun. Roads are in pretty decent shape. And when the sun is out it’s still cold af, but a lot more tolerable.
  3. There’s no “easy” way, but having a gulf that’s available for overrunning is the “best” way.
  4. I’m getting very interested in the pattern next week. Ensembles are intriguing. Seems like a potentially more normal way of getting snow.
  5. The cold to snow ratio this winter has been less than ideal.
  6. Snow on snow would look cool even if it’s 1-3”, but it ain’t lookin’ good right now.
  7. Why is it so hard to get a snowstorm when temps are in the teens that doesn’t flip to sleet for the majority of it lol. We’re the most faux snowtown ever.
  8. Our total offensive yards are there…but our point total is lacking.
  9. We might need a 950 low to get moisture back to Frederick with so much dry air in place: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=ecmwf&region=us&pkg=Td2m&runtime=2026012806&fh=99
  10. Biggest issue I see is the lack of a return flow out of the gulf ahead of this system. Not really sure a north trend of the ull will accomplish much aside from being a clean clipper unless we get some kind of a norlun trough involved. The best runs were mostly throwing moisture back from the Atlantic…which would be awesome but basically requires bombogenesis.
  11. Glad I did not stay up for the 0z suite. Definitely a classic “too many things need to go right” type of system, at least for mby. Coastal areas are a different story.
  12. This place is candyland compared to Eastern. Trust me when I say being a newbie and acting like a know it all was like shooting baskets on a hoop with a yellow jacket nest.
  13. Eastern shore is going to love this run
  14. Complicated might be the new way we get snow now. I’m in.
  15. Guys, I’m in Pi Planning today…stop distracting me by posting potential stemwinder nor’easters that have no mixing issues inland.
  16. Lol yea mine isn’t sharp, but def stiff. Think a lunchtime stretch is incoming.
  17. My lower back def feels that shoveling from yesterday lol. Different muscle groups used for that exercise.
  18. I think we need to get out of this La Niña stuff. We’re either getting storms with too much warm air intrusion from 850 to 700 or fast moving NS systems that aren’t digging early enough (too much ridging out west?). Need a pattern that allows these components to play nicer together. Feels like it usually points back to downstream blocking. The main causes of that would make for an interesting research topic.
  19. Missed the 0z runs, but before I crashed I noticed the wind direction at the lower levels is really cutting off moisture from the gulf and even Atlantic until the system cranks. Seems we’d be relying entirely off the coastal cranking early enough, which is the opposite of the last system that had southwest winds feeding us moisture from the Pacific and the Gulf.
