Then you will be interested in the VD/PD date outlook :)

 

Unlike the January Blizzard, this looks to be much more complex. But that does not mean to say it is a tenuous set up. With the huge ridge out west to help, as we've seen in some past instances, the upstream helps the downstream set up by buckling the 500mb flow. The downstream NAO is slightly negative oscillation transitioning back to neutral or positive - that is a decent set up downstream.

 

The moisture tap from the STJ (tap rooting the ITCZ) has been pretty strong (all season really) and would also play a part.

 

As I said, many moving parts -- but with the cold almost a lock at this point. I believe we have a "game on" situation.

Morning guys

Reminding me more and more of winter 2010. Three storm threats that have the potential to deliver in excess of 2-3' of snow within 2 weeks. (2010 IMBY put down 44" in same amount of time).

 

I bought a new front end loader last fall (getting the chains for it today). Last time I bought a loader? - why that would have been fall of 2002.

 

Coincidence? Or more, hmmmm?

That's quite an impressive map! I'd also put Williamsport and NEPA in the jackpot zone. I've had my share of screw jobs over the years, but not like those 2 have. If anyone has a right to b**ch and complain, they do.

 

if only 384 hr maps could EVER verify....now is the time  :ski:

Its almost like I was allowed to draw it.  Only diff is that I'd put WSPT and NEPAdude in the crosshairs...just for them..

 

all aside...I think we'd lock this up and all be happy.

The 12z guidance didn't have all that much eye candy as far as mid-long range snow threats (that seems to be a 6z/18z thing). But wow was Valentines Day weekend cold on the Euro today. Whole state was pretty much sub 500 thicknesses from 174-198hr and sub 492 186 and 192hr (850 temps -25 to -30ºC).
