I'm not superstitious about numbers and I have a strong feeling that what happened in 2020 is something that is just going to become more common. We're never going back to the way things were before. The media should be hammering that point and not falling for this weird "2020" mystique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisy Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Boxing Day is my least favorite storm of all time. It started with the crazy gfs runs 2-3 days out when all the models had lost the storm only to bring it back. It was Looking like we’d be right in the heart of it, but those crazy deformation bands stayed just to my east (philly). I vividly remember reading your guys NYC obs thread and earth light having a weeniegasm while it was piling up. One day philly will get one of those pivots. They either setup too far Nw or too Far East. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthShoreWx Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Has it really been 20 years? 20 years ago today at my place we had a little over 11" of snow. Decent storm, especially when we got 5 or 6" in a couple of hours in the morning. It turned briefly to rain here and then quicky back to snow as we were right on the edge of the transition. About 8 miles to the west, Northport stayed all snow. PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY 1045 PM EST SAT DEC 30 2000 ...SNOWFALL TOTALS...

This storm is so nostalgic for me. Even though philly didn’t do great it was the first storm I tracked on wx forums. Remember reading DT on wright weather/twc forums posting about it lol. Idk why I remember this, but a few days before this event models actually had a huge Miller A system. Of course that didn’t come to fruition and the northern branch did its own dirty business.

If memory serves, the difference at PHL was between 8" on the east side and nada on the west side. Lots of understandable frustration, especially with a couple of feet in parts of north Jersey.

I think the city (PHL) did ok-maybe 8 or 9 inches at the airport, but as you headed S and W amounts dropped drastically over 20-30 miles to nothing. Baltimore had a winter storm warning the night before and woke up to sunny skies-tremendous bust. It actually busted further north-we were supposed to turn to rain, never did and got 15 inches.

I fell asleep at like 4-5am right before it started in Philly and slept through the heaviest part lol. I always like to be awake for the first flakes, just my thing. I got 7-8 or so in northeast philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisy Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Since 12/30/00 is being discussed. Famartin has an incredible archive. His YouTube page has tons of nostalgic vids. From 12/30/00 What’s really strange is I vividly remember the weather channels miss Cleo infomercials in the late 90s early 2000s lmao. I actually recall watching this clip live. Once again, no clue why but I remember every detail of this storm well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
