January was not great but it has been almost consistent snow cover on more than half the yard since Dec 2nd. I think the snow to sleet and ice storms have definitely helped with staying power. I have 2-3” of cover that probably has over 1” of water in it. Even though a lot of the snow was front end of winter it still has felt like a pretty long stretch of winter already. I can’t imagine my mood would be great if I had gone through what a lot of SNE posters here are going through. Hopefully we all get one region wide cash in before spring! I had a pack like that for about 10-12 days in January. It didn’t feel much better to me. Super long stretches of no major storm threats getting inside of 4 days is really the defining theme to me the past 7 weeks. I probably would have been grumpier if it was temps closer to normal or colder than normal and bare ground. But having constant highs in the upper 30s to low 40s didn’t have me super excited that there was a 2 inch half-thawed glacier on the ground. Im definitely a snow pack guy too...but I also prefer some legit storms to track. It’s been really boring. Seems like each event we’re tracking pennies and the occasional nickel and usually slop/transition events...outside of VT of course where they got that solid CCB a few days ago. Either way, hopefully there’s something to track that gives a solid chance for warning snows to a good chunk of the forum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty bad when a moderator tells a forum member he/she is a "shitty poster". I am waiting for MJO to post another 50 times how bad this winter is.

The peak wind of the day so far was at the top of Kirkwood Mountain with a gust of 209 mph. If this observation is verified as accurate, then that could be the new California record high wind!

Wind damage and flooding in England with lots of rail service shut down. Glad I didn't pick this week to make the trip.

Great Yeah the several light snowfalls in a row are usually the best skiing...because crowds stay away (no Powder day rush that a TWC named and hyped storm brings) and it’s usually the best snowfall amount that the majority of the public can still ski without struggling. 3-6 inchers every few days is sort of a bread and butter pattern up here as JSpin likes to call it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 18z euro was quite a bit flatter with Thursday’s system. Enough to be interesting for SNE and not just NNE. I ain’t biting yet but today has definitely seen a trend flatter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
