Not sure how that has anything to do with this year sucking as well. I can't tell you how to feel about what snow you do or don't get, but if you keep it all in perspective, you should be happy with what you've gotten so far. If you want to wring your hands over not getting more snow, by all means, feel free. its your emotional health thats impacted, not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro and GFS (!!) are both a few degrees colder. Can't recall seeing a time recently when GFS had colder surface temps in the Balt-Wash corridor than the NAM.

Mrs.J Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 During winter here in MD I have found all I really want is sun. Can be a cold day with snow on the ground but sunny. Where I grew up in NWOH snow was a given most years. And it sticks around. But there were less days with sun. Making it hard on a persons mental state. Upon moving to MD over 20 years ago I saw that you can have snow and sun on the same day. As for the amount of snow, yes I seem to live in an area of MD that can get dumped on when a good storm track comes in. But I have found after several years that I am just not a snow person anymore. It is pretty and with that I have enjoyed the smaller events more. I had many reasons I was happy to move from OH. The change in weather patterns was one of them. I have found that I prefer a good t-storm over a good snow storm. But I do not begrudge any of you a shackling of snow. So not really sure where this post falls in the grand scheme of things. Probably just a rambling of my morning brain. Enjoy life!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakkelWx Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 This is easily the cloudiest winter in a long time. And tomorrow is going to be the only "partially" sunny day until probably next monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestrobjwa Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 @North Balti Zen I completely get it...as you said, Baltimore hasn't gotten a verified warning in 5 years--I'm also frustrated because of that. Being a tad on edge is totally understandable...my personal theory is that we don't get a warning event unless we get a bigger punch (which is why I'm focused more on the potential the models are possibly hinting at Day 6-8...hope things progress!)

I've actually felt very positive about the upcoming threats, which I never did about the last few. I'm one of the ones who truly enjoys every flake that falls and tries to put things in perspective. I'm not going to lie, if we come out of mid-February with nothing substantial, I'm going to be in a pretty dark place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a great guy. Graduated a year before me. He reached out to me because his dad watches the forum during winter and saw my posts and asked him if that was me. I'm actually in contact with him on any job openings at WPC within my pay grade. I would LOVE to work there. Fingers crossed! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillvilleWx Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Just a heads up for everyone. This storm will be monitored by me, and I'll be making drive-by posts on occasion, but we got a potential historic cold outbreak for this weekend, so all my attention is on work atm. I'll post my 2cents every now and then, but my obligations are elsewhere. Hopefully everyone can cash 4+" with this multi-wave setup. Good luck! 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 No time to play yet. Just wondering if we've reached the point of the storm being impossible to enjoy no matter what happens? If not now, later today for sure 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 That’s all aimed at me. Fair. Guilty. It would be nice to get to warning level here for a change - especially if a lot of the rest of the area is cashing in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two WSW events so far this winter and I've combined for 4.5 inches between both of them. With this one seeming to be trending the good stuff away from Baltimore.

RevWarReenactor Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 IF the Euro is correct. The I-95 corridor from Baltimore up to Wilmington has been getting absolutely boned this year. I feel your pain. Snow to the south, snow to the north, snow to the east, snow to the west. But I still have hope. If you don't have hope what do you got?

Only in our subforum would people be complaining that models don't give them enough snow. Nothing will be good enough. I hate rug pulls too. I get that as much as anyone. But sometimes I see irrational exuberance given the setup. The hybrid had me scared of my shadow start to finish. We maximize those like 5% of the time, get screwed 75% of the time, and 20% of the time we get ok snow. We got ok snow but it felt like the 75%. It's a REALLY TALL ORDER for the thurs/fri deal to drop over 1" liquid over a large swath. We have organized coastals with less. Those mid/short range mega runs always seem to be the kiss of death for having fun. Anything less becomes a disaster sticking point. Is what it is. I get it. I'm here for the lolz nowadays. Models backing down at short range has an inverse relationship with the # of lolz tho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
