Sounds like you're projecting. I've already reached annual average snowfall so anything else is gravy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negnao Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Interesting that they(NWS) increased their high end (1 in 10 chance) to over 6 inches. It was a little lower earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUsedToHateCold Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 It’s a snow-on-snow event for me, assuming everything doesn’t melt by tomorrow night (melting at a pretty good clip today) So I don’t really care I’ll take whatever I get. What I really wish is that it wouldn’t rain a few days later. I want to keep this snowpack around for as long as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've certainly done that for the big events, like Feb. 2010 and Jan. 2016. Would go out several times and doze off in-between! I often wondered if the neighbors would call the cops about seeing this person wandering around in the snow with a camera and a yardstick. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high risk Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 While I don't get too worked up over HRRR snow details 36 hours out, the 18z forecast is consistent with the idea that has been discussed about good amounts to the west with the shortwave dynamics and then a secondary max to the southeast as the coastal low spins up. Unpleasant screw zone in between, although its totals there would be acceptable, at least to me. And the band of heavier totals with the coastal low isn't far southeast of I-95 at all.... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual low and the vort take a good track, what the NAM identifies as the low on a few frames isn't really the location lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
