USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm excited to see the 00z runs tonight, especially since the models runs recently. In game for a big snowstorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECT Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Charlie Brown is morbidly depressing... Dude, no. Charlie Brown is all about all about celebrating, just as KFS says find a way to believe in snow. Monday/Tuesday may not happen, but if it doesn't happen, something good will (eventually).

HoarfrostHubb Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 At least it will be winter temp-wise after this beasty clears out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECT Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 At least it will be winter temp-wise after this beasty clears out... Yep. And I'm old enough to believe that a "typical" December can be stupid warm and foggy, or cold, crisp, and maybe a little snow. More often than not, for most of SNE, there a few snow chances here and there in Dec, Jan is colder, and often dry, and Feb. is when we look for good storms.

I know we have some young posters on here...but it seems even some of the older ones have amnesia on the blowtorch Decembers of 1990s. The 2000-2010 was pretty decent to us for temps...but even more for snow...despite 2001 and 2006 in there. But two torchy December in row puts fear into the hearts more than 4 in a row cold/snowy sooths the soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Will, were there any big snow December's that were also torches in the 1990s/2000s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Will, were there any big snow December's that were also torches in the 1990s/2000s? Dec 1996 was a huge torch, but we got destroyed in the interior in the dual Cantore snowbombs. Dec 2008 was epic for both snow and of course the ice storm...but it was finished around +1 for the month...nota torch, but still a bit above average.

snowman21 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Will, were there any big snow December's that were also torches in the 1990s/2000s? I'd say maybe 2003. But big snow months and torches don't happen in SNE, in December anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 My bar mitzvah occurred in December 1959. My recollection was a torchy rainy month. March of 1960 was worth the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 My bar mitzvah occurred in December 1959. My recollection was a torchy rainy month. March of 1960 was worth the wait. Circa 1995. About 5 years old first learning how to sculpt perfect snowbanks. This will be back soon. Pattern looks promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a kid I remember a few XMas eve's in the 80's driving (my parents drove actually) in rain and fog. I don't get the toaster out until after XMas.

I don't get the toaster out until after XMas. December 29, 1984 was epic. Still the largest departure form average I believe at ORH...the day was +37 I think. High of 70 and low of 55....on Dec 29th!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including sometime around 94? with a heavy gale it was so warm that my folks had the window open on xmas eve. Prob the Dec 23-24, 1994 storm. We've talked about that one on here before. It was actually sub-tropical in origin. There was no cold air at all for it to tap into...so we had a hige rainstorm on Christmas Eve. I was pretty bummed in that one.

New England Storm Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Wow sub-tropical in December, that must have been a rare storm. I can only think of the schizophrenic mood of the board if something like that happened today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkpa25 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Looking like snow will fall on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Especially down this way in the mid Atlantic. Good luck everybody,maybe we all can cash in on a white Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
