The GGEM actually looks like Dec '96 for wave 1....the first wave in Dec '96 on 12/6/96. Maybe just a smidge colder. The 5H pattern going south of SNE is eerily similar.

Its kind of different though than other guidance in that sense.

For reference for those kiddies who were still in first grade. nice 6+ swath

I will say i am very disappointed in some of the staff for not responding to Pm's.....That's all I will say about what happened.

I hope Joba drills Youk with fastballs in batting practice like the old days.

Now..let's snow..and snow heavy

That's my one and only complaint about this site. When they ask for donations we respond. They in turn should respond to messages or ask for more volunteers to help. Jmho

pretty impressive overnight runs...albeit rather strange

surprised to see how amped both lows are on the euro...strange to see 988 then 980 like 24 hours apart from each other.

Yeah not very common...Dec '96 had the two back to back amped systems just 18 hours apart...they weren't 980mb though. Think the first one was 996mb and second one was about 990mb.

Then on Dec 19-21, 2008, we saw the two pretty decent systems. Though that first one was a pretty weak sfc low. Second one was a sneaky potent 985mb low.

This might be a classic case of event 1 becoming weak and strung out, light snows and mix into sne with the second s/w becoming the main player, then the question becomes has the baroclinicity been pushed far enough east for a coastal/wintry solution or is it an inland runner. Fascinating 5-7 days of model watching ahead.

The way the euro evolved...I actually thought it was going to just make one powerhouse system - I didn't expect to see that follow up one be so strong. For my own enjoyment I'd much rather a crazy 970ish low like gfs has

Wait didn't we have a back to back bomb in 11.

Oh how I remember that 12/6/96 storm. I was in Orlando and my wife calls and leaves a message..."it's f"cking snowing to beat the band!" Part of a litany of missed storms that thankfully. Has seemed to end...in part for my refusal to go anywhere in winter....lol.

There are actually 3 main shortwavesin the flow...only 2 of them ever produce a storm. But the order in which that happens changes some of the outcomes. There will definitely be a "first" system...its just whether it happens more on Sunday/Sunday night rather than Monday.

Here is the Euro at 96 hours....you can see 3 distinct waves I have highlighted. The first one gets overtaken by wave #2 in the southwest US and that becomes the dominant one. That is why the Euro has most of the event on Monday. Wave #3 near the PAC NW is what produces the big system after the first one.

On the GFS, wave #1 is the dominant wave for the first event, and it lags wave #2 much further west than the Euro, and wave #2 on the GFS actually gets overtaken by wave #3 as the dominant wave.

That was a great week out this way. I think I got about 15" between the two storms.

Wasn't the first system a swfe? I remeber it coming in like a wall of white and the initial snow forecasts had to be doubled out here.

I do not recall back to back "big" systems. The Feb 1-2, 2011 system was a 2 parter...but it was all kind of one big overrunning event rather than two distinct coastal systems with their own CCB/dynamics. We had the 2 part inverted trough/norlun stuff on Jan 6-8 I believe it was. But again, same deal as before...not two distinct larger systems.

One of my favorite two part systems was NYE a few years back, maybe 09? Two light snow events, calm winds nice dendrites......made for a perfect night in the back yard on NYE. Some of my favorite events were smaller ones, but longer duration and hardly any wind just watching dendrites cascade into the spotlight.

I think 07/08 was the year

We got 5" on the 31st and 4" on the 1st Perfect snow
