I wouldn't worry - somebody already had that in mind probably. People lately seem to have an obsession with naming weather events. If it fails will it be Snowcastration?

Disc Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm still waiting on the euro snow maps on WxBell to come out. They take forever, but the resolution is a lot better than what I've seen posted around so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Hypothetically speaking...IF DCA accidentally got 15" of snow and hit climo for the season....would we consider this a good winter? Does a one hit wonder as the door is closing on an awful awful season really make up for such an atrocious run of crap luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does a one hit wonder as the door is closing on an awful awful season really make up for such an atrocious run of crap luck? Right now I'd grade this winter as a D/D-. If I get a warning criteria snowstorm in March to round it out, I might raise it up to a C/C-. Even if I somehow get to climo snow with this storm (would take 18"), I'd still keep this winter as probably a C+ at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I feel the same way WxUSAF. Last winter was an F-. We had a below normal month this winter and about 10 events that did drop *some* snow. I have to go D- because of the back to backs and not even breaking a stoopid 2" streak even with plenty of cold air to work with at times. IF we get pummeled (I'm ready for the gut punch) I would barely give it a C. A March fluke is more of a great single event memory than a season saver. We're kinda past the point of no return irt saving the season imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. March slop that will melt in 15 minutes doesn't nearly make up for such a horrendous string of winters. This winter (as well as these last 3 winters) deserves to live in infamy. No consolations, no asterisks, no nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtstack Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Any winter with an HECS is a good winter in DC. We are an all or nothing town. With all the models showing good snows over the NOVA area, and with Wes being as bullish as he ever gets at the 5-6 day mark, I'd have to say excitement is growing rapidly. It can all go to crap, but sure looks fantastic right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
