I remember the GFS run during Christmas Day that clobbered us. My buddy was texting me, we still didn’t believe it until the euro that night came
On board. Here in Philly the lead up of the event was more fun than the actually storm itself since we sort of got fringed of the good stuff, still a great memory.


.

The 12z eps were well west of the op on Christmas eve. That was a big red flag.

He's kinda right. There's no analog and it was 50 miles from being a miss for nyc west. Also as I recall the euro at that point crushed the whole 95 corridor which ended up being wrong for Philly and DC 

Agree but he was too negative like usual lol.

hey everybody. somebody from another part of the country here. Anybody remember a very special storm called the "Millennium Snowstorm." It happened on 12/30 to 12/31 in 2000 and rolled into New England but screwed Pennsylvania. Shown here is the co-op snow totals to 1/1/2001. Technically 1/1/2001 is the true changeover of the millennium. It's a bit of a debate, really. But that's not important. What was important: if you're old enough, everybody was worried their computer or technological systems based on computers would crash on 1/1/2000 at midnight. Anyway, this huge snowstorm for NYC had some similarities to the 1888 snowstorm of NYC. Actually, I'm not sure about that, as I might have to actually get Kocin and Uccellini (2004) out of my storage boxes to confirm anything about the evolution of the 1888 storm.

One of my favorite storms. 17" in 9 hours. Went to bed nervous because nothing was on radar as of like 1am. When I woke up it was practically a blizzard

hey everybody. somebody from another part of the country here. Anybody remember a very special storm called the "Millennium Snowstorm." It happened on 12/30 to 12/31 in 2000 and rolled into New England but screwed Pennsylvania. Shown here is the co-op snow totals to 1/1/2001. Technically 1/1/2001 is the true changeover of the millennium. It's a bit of a debate, really. But that's not important. What was important: if you're old enough, everybody was worried their computer or technological systems based on computers would crash on 1/1/2000 at midnight. Anyway, this huge snowstorm for NYC had some similarities to the 1888 snowstorm of NYC. Actually, I'm not sure about that, as I might have to actually get Kocin and Uccellini (2004) out of my storage boxes to confirm anything about the evolution of the 1888 storm.

One of my favorites because it was a in-my-backyard special that plastered Morris County.

It was 18” of power in six hours and it was cold afterwards!

It has snowed in and will snow in December again!

yes it was great even on the western part of the south shore just like March 1888 was!  why can't all our huggers be just like this?
