WinterWxLuvr Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Back home to my VA place after 2 successful property showings this weekend. Would like one more big snow before the property goes to someone else. Looks like the next 3 weeks will be my last hope? 8PM: 28.5 at my WV place and 33.7 here in Boyce. Now see a WSW is up at my WV place. Wonder if it will be expanded east by morning? Certainly a wetter event coming in Tuesday. I'll bet it's expanded east. Temps look to be cold, and the precip looks to be coming in quick around daybreak. At this point at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 With everyone canceling our odds of snow are probably higher than they've been all winter. I'm not gonna cancel even though I want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrederickWX Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 This weekend looks cold!!! Highs only in the 30s Friday through Sunday? That would be 10-15 degrees below normal.

Ian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 ill never root against snow but its reallllllllly hard to want to see it snow at this pt. whatever we get is bound to be a slopfest that disappears in 30 minutes when it's over. plus we made it this long, we might as well not sully this horrific winter with some sort of consolation prize.

It would be sort of lame if we get some last minute storm that rains on us but manages to dump a rogue 10 inches on psuhoffman and Winchester.

mattie g Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I don't want to poo poo the talk of the great winter pattern we're seeing with the beast PNA ridge and block, but we're coming into March and I can't get excited about snow threats anymore. I love snow as much as anyone, but having it be chilly for days on end only to end up chasing a potential slopfest that melts in a day isn't exactly insipring. I want spring.

snownut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Board is dead today, think many may need to go on antidepressants ... Biggest event since January mostly rain of course yet some of us will have the biggest ice accretion of the season and front end sleet. 40 page observation thread for flurries ... yet all is quiet for this one even though WWA for large portions of the area. This may overperform IMBY. I always watch temps around JonJon and when he is still cold for these this type event the cold layer is still pretty thick.

snownut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 But those portions = 3.2% of the posters here yes but surprised winterweatherlvr and other westerners have not chimed in... affirms my point. The depression is deeper than Boston's winter snow total and I think most are ready for spring just to move on past the pain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scraff Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Well...I'm here all the time reading anyway. Maybe the next few weeks produce something, maybe not. Until the true signs of spring show up on the models, I'll believe anything can happen. I mean DT is already talking about the March 6-7 dealio. Of course its going to verify.

FrederickWX Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Good luck finding spring on the models too. No snow and no warmth. Just the worst for early March. Agreed, but on the bright side, if you like spring, once we get past mid-month, even a cool day with -8 or -9 departures still gets us a 50 degree day. Throw some sun and light/no wind in with that, and it's pretty nice. Of course, we have three weeks to get there, and I wouldn't mind a couple of light snow events between now and then, even if they're quickly gone.

EastCoast NPZ Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 yes but surprised winterweatherlvr and other westerners have not chimed in... affirms my point. The depression is deeper than Boston's winter snow total and I think most are ready for spring just to move on past the pain? A little freezing rain does absolutely nothing for me. Rain in any form is just rain. Besides, daylight rain at this point in the season is not freezing any more than snow would be sticking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
