Yeah London has been fantastic haha I've been getting photo updates from back home of the snow. After living through DC's winter last year I've had my snow fix but it's nice to watch unfold anyway!

Dude sounds fun,but you can not compare the longevity of epic depths and relentless recurring storms like this with DCs awesome epic winter. You were a true winter weenie now you have become soft. Sad really.

I'm expecting a good thumping. I got 6" through the bulk of today's event. Other tha noting that it slowly is accumulating, I'm not really paying attention to the really slow but steady stuff that's been taking place since 2:00

From ALY: (you've probably already read it though. The future is looking white.

ANOTHER COASTAL STORM LOOKS TO HEAD UP THE COAST FOR FRIDAY NIGHT

INTO SATURDAY. THERE IS GOOD AGREEMENT IN THIS OCCURRING FROM THE 12

UTC ECMWF/GFS/GGEM/JMA/UKMET....AS WELL AS A BUNCH OF MEMBERS FROM

THE 12 UTC GEFS. AT THIS POINT...THE MODELS SEEM TO AGREE THAT THE

MAJORITY OF THE EVENT ACROSS OUR CWA WILL BE IN THE FORM OF SNOW.

THE ONLY UNCERTAINTY RIGHT NOW WILL BE OUR FAR SOUTHEASTERN

ZONES...WHERE IT/S POSSIBLE THAT SOME IP/FZRA/RAIN COULD MIX IN FOR

A BRIEF PERIOD DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE EVENT. FOR NOW...WILL

FORECAST HIGH CHC POPS FOR THE ENTIRE CWA...DUE TO UNCERTAINTY

REGARDING THE EXACT TIMING OF THE EVENT...AND KEEP P-TYPE SNOW FOR

NOW. QPF STILL VARIES BETWEEN THE MODELS...BUT A LIGHT TO MODERATE

SNOW LOOKS TO OCCUR...WITH THE HIGHEST QPF IN SOUTHEASTERN AREAS

CLOSEST TO THE SFC LOW.

WILL KEEP CHC POPS FOR LINGERING CYCLONIC FLOW -SHSN IN THE FORECAST

FOR SAT NIGHT AS THE STORM LIFTS NORTHWARD TOWARDS ATLANTIC CANADA.

IT SHOULD DRY OUT IN IT/S WAKE FOR SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...EXCEPT

ACROSS THE WESTERN DACKS/UPPER MOHAWK VALLEY...WHERE SOME LAKE

EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE. TEMPS LOOK FAIRLY SEASONABLE FOR

THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH TEENS AT NIGHT...AND 20S AND

30S DURING THE DAY.

WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH ANOTHER RAPIDLY DEEPENING STORM FOR TUESDAY OF

NEXT WEEK. AT THIS POINT...BOTH THE 12 UTC GFS/ECMWF SHOWS THIS

STORM MOVING WEST OF THE REGION TOWARDS THE ST. LAWRENCE VALLEY.

WILL FORECAST CHC POPS FOR A PERIOD OF SNOW WILL THE WARM ADVECTION

AHEAD OF THE WARM FRONT...AND THEN RAIN OR SNOW ALONG THE STORM/S

COLD FRONT. IN THE WAKE OF THIS STORM...ANOTHER ROUND OF BITTER

ARCTIC AIR /850 HPA TEMPS WELL BELOW -20 DEGREES C/ LOOKS TO INVADE

OUR AREA FOR THE MID TO LATTER PORTION OF NEXT WEEK.

Well, it sounds like a weenie statement now, but it didn't sound so weenish when the models windshield-wipered into an all-snow-in-N-CT portrayal for a time. :lol:

LOL, you'll do fine. I just don't have the confidence to go gung-ho given the big mid level warm push and already mild temps, but agree the Pike will be the rough battle ground area. Also, I'm not sure we'll see one inch qpf in sne as of now, unless somehow this is a complete mini bomb of qpf.

A couple of things to note.

1) Watch radar over PA and NY State. If this rushes in here as strong echoes, that may increase the odds of more dynamic cooling. If it's slow to occur...the opposite may happen.

2) Mt Tolland may be a good indicator. If he stays snow longer, then that may bode well for the rest of sne.

Bad job by CBS NBC leading with Egypt and reporting same stories from yesterday , ABC led with the story of 100 million AMERICANS being affected by what is now the Midwest 93 version of a blizzard.

Let's be honest, the collapse of our strongest ally in the Middle East is just a bit more important long-term than a snowstorm :lol:

Here I thought it was Israel.

Fixed.

Same story three days running, they deserve it but OT, enjoying London?missing the best winter of our life here. ABC put America first, good job

our strongest Arab ally in the Middle East...

Obviously Israel, the only democracy and non-Muslim country, is America's strongest ally in the Middle East.

Come on gang. No politics allowed on the weather side. We've had enough weenies get 5 posted and suspended today. Keep it on topic.

I think that is the best they will ever see....you can't get a winter like we have had, down there.

I was a little taken back by the early flip to ice down south this morning, but I think that has been negated by the fact that they are seeing flakes again.

I got between 8" and 9" today and I live near the CT/Mass border in Suffield, CT! Snow depth my parents said is a hair over 30" and both the euro and gfs ensembles are looking colder than the op. runs for this weekends storm and also next weeks miller b hybrid!

Here's some love Rev Kev! lol

It's the best they'll ever get. And it had more to do with the sheer ability of the storms to paralyze the region. One of the few times a US city has been truly shut down for an entire week.
