I still like our chances after V-Day... its la-la land, but 252 onward would suggest numerous chances of good snows... granted it will likely change on the 12z run... but I am liking the time period after the 16th.... call it a gut feeling ;)

 

we're running out of windows. im pretty sure everyone is focusing on that one now. gut feelings for all.

Zwyts will disagree ofc, but I really believe that the 16th to the end of Feb is likely our last chance of breaking out of our 2" streak

 

DC avg like 3.5" of snow after feb 15. just because it can snow doesn't mean it will... especially this year.

they are...no guarantee it will cut to the west

 

It's far out in time too. Saying a nice bowling ball is definitely going to get dragged into the gutter by some ns low in fast flow is not smart. 

 

I'll probably regret saying this but....overall....it really does look like our first legit shot. Not verbatim of course but you know what I'm saying. Close off @ 5h a little later and escape any ns influence early on and there we have it. 

 

Now we just get to watch it change a bazillion times and have these same posts continue for days but discussing different problems. lol

I just want a 3-6" storm..I'm not really concerned about a sick, high yielding pattern....Just want one decent snowfall

You and me both man. A period that favors systems passing below us appears to be on tap. A quick and dirty fast moving wave through the tn valley and off the coast would do the trick. Amped up phasers are nice and all but way too much can go wrong. Let's break our horrific streak with something simple.

because by then it has to be -15F below normal to accumulate snow.... if it snows at all.

 

And because any good look will likely either break down completely or continue to be pushed far enough back that by the time the good pattern establishes itself it won't be able to overcome climo averages.

It's easy to get those departures in Feb. Give us a good vort pass and a modest hp to the n and it snows as readily as Ji cancelling winter. March 10th and beyond is much different tho

 

I don't know, it took a major SSW event and the PV taking a sight-seeing trip to Niagra Falls to get us two -15F days a couple weeks ago.

I would like to have all the snowlovers continue to despair this winter.

However, the GFS is claiming there is some possibility of up to 1" QPF of non-rain over Presidents' Day weekend this year. At this moment the claim for DCA is yuck to rain and back to yuck.

May any PDS II/III stay away from DCA.

(now where did I put my flamethrower?)
