Scuddz Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I'm all for many threads but why did we decide to have a new model thread every day? What about once a week or something? Seriously, who's bright idea was the daily model threads? edit: F-ing Ji, should've known.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But having twelve model threads does kind of suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super patterns in ModelLand are super until the super pattern gives us two moisture-starved northern stream POSs and a warm rainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvantHiatus Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Such a great pattern, trough axis is like 100 miles too far east. I hope this does not happen verbatim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Over/Under 50% this amazing pattern fails us.... It probably depends on your definition of fail. Seems like a lot of people are just shooting for 1".. in that case, under. More than an inch.. tougher call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Well, no matter which way you slice it the pattern will heavily pattern us until the pattern gets replaced by a new pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 My guess is over because a Trace to an inch is getting old It's gotta snow eventually. Can't hurt having the most favorable pattern since Washington/Jefferson overlap with prime-o climo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 It's gotta snow eventually. Can't hurt having the most favorable pattern since Washington/Jefferson overlap with prime-o climo. Lol. You've been in the area long enough to know that the last two winters were hard to accomplish, and 2 in a row was unprecedented. Yes, even crappy 07/08 and 08/09 had moderate to heavy snowstorms. We can already see that this season, even if it ends up substantially under average, will be a more normal kind of suck instead of the 'nothing goes right for 3 months' kind of suck.

If the next few weeks work out I think most will think of this as a pretty decent winter. Part of that could be the pain of the last few though. I'd have to assume our best current bet for DCA is like 75% climo or so but beating it wouldn't be shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of that could be the pain of the last few though. I'd have to assume our best current bet for DCA is like 75% climo or so but beating it wouldn't be shocking. How a winter feels to area depends on snow, sure, but also on other factors. 76/77 was below average snow totals, but we did score a couple of moderate snows in January (like 3-4" type totals), had an amazingly cold month, and experienced an ice storm or two on top of it all. That was winter. 1/85 was a wintry month with a good snowstorm, freezing rain, and an extreme cold wave, so that winter was acceptable even though the snow total wasn't good. This winter so far has already had more than one non-negligible impact event... if we verify the cold through the next stretch and somehow manage to gather 6" across multiple events at DCA, this winter will be seen as ok.
