Every damn storm missed and went north and every damn storm dumped a mountain. Then Vday weekend came along and cleared the table of that ish. The rest nobody forgets.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Man that winter hurricane is gonna be a hell of a storm for the Canadians up in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolz1 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 That is one heck of a piece of NS energy on the GFS. Confluent flow slightly relaxed...Dont know if it will make it this run but a positive move, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFS still favoring a SE US strike. A crazy powerful s/w trough that drops out of Manitoba. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Now that it shows the south getting a snowstorm, I’m much more interested and positive about our chances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every damn storm missed and went north and every damn storm dumped a mountain. Then Vday weekend came along and cleared the table of that ish. The rest nobody forgets. Haha What's funny is that I still distinctly remember the two very cold Februaries we had...2007 and 2015. Both were like -7 to -8 degree departures, and I think 2015 was overall colder. Both had a "key event" around V-Day. In 2007, we just missed a major MECS/HECS level event but still ended up with a big sleet and ice storm that turned into a glacier for the next couple of weeks. In 2015, we got the burst of snow along that Arctic front (Bob, I believe you said you were out in the garage grilling while that snow was falling?!). As I've said a few times before, if we had gotten hit with the V-Day storm in 2007, we would have considered that one of the better winters in memory. To me, it was still a fine season overall and I think that February with the cold is a big reason for it. But it gets overlooked because we didn't get a lot of snow. In 2015, it's as if we had a "re-do", we got the cold and snow that February (into early March). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blizzard that thing is gonna create is gonna be legendary if it comes to fruition. I'll be living in north eastern New Brunswick (close to PEI and Nova Scotia) starting in late 2023. I am looking forward to the storms up there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one back in 2003 that hit out of nowhere I remember. The forecast was light snow possible with less than 1" expected. Woke up at 545am to a WWA and 3" of snow with a 2 hr delay for school. That winter just snowed anytime it wanted to. 5 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: Eric Webb and Alan Huffman are probably salivating right now.

WinterWxLuvr Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 GFS bias is typically too strong and too far south with ns energy and too slow in the ne to move them out. If those two are in play here, we are probably gonna like the result. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the one in January (a month or so before the PD-II storm)? I remember a cold powder clipper type event sometime that month that over-performed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of northern MD got hit pretty good. I couldn't believe my eyes when I peered out the window that morning. It was still snowing. NWS had to be playing serious catchup. No one was even in an Advisory. They almost had warning criteria near the MD line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
