Lol I’ve been trying so hard the last couple days not to poop in this thread but I’ve been getting a chuckle thinking how since Xmas it been “ by Jan 10” then Jan 15 and 20 and 25 then 28th then Feb 1 now Feb 6.

The same look has been stuck at day 10-15 for a month now. 

We will run out of 10-15 day periods soon enough.  Then we turn the hoses back on and wash the car.

The nature of the beast dude. Nothing new, esp chasing snow chances in the MA in a Nina. We all know what to expect. Why poop?

It's funny. We never seem to kick the can when we enter shitty periods

That’s true.  You never hear “well folks big model bust…looks like that June heat wave is on hold as we continue these pleasant 70s for the next week at least”.

You guys should know a +PNA Is coming for Feb 7-21. Saying it will likely be nuetral-to+NAO gives us these analogs for the time period:

(since 1948)

1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1977, 1979, 1980 1980, 1981, 1982, 1991, 1992, 1995, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2015, 2016, 2021

^ analogs vs other analog match's suggest not such an easy +NAO.. maybe -NAO possibility for Feb7-21

(How did we do snow-wise? anyone that knows)

Only question is can the SE ridge actually flatten out long enough...would love to see the flatter/weaker look of that NOT trend stronger as we get closer. If it don't then hey we in the game.

Careful what u wish for. It's going to take some bowling avocados to 'squash' that SER, pun intended.

For this threat window. Go play video games if you don't want to properly participate in the discussion lol.

Just pointing out how we have done this song and dance before, if we get something inside 7 days I will be excited but currently it’s too far out to take seriously. Also I would go play video games but I got so much school stuff, it sucks.

This isn’t normal for a Nina.  BWIs avg snow through Jan 31 in a Nina is 10.3”. Never been shutout.  Manchesters avg is 18.4”. Least is 6.4”.  Nina’s have less variance. They are rarely good but rarely really awful either. 

But I’ve been trying in this thread lately. Pointing out ways we “could” get something even if I don’t really buy it. But this gets old…look at Jan 28

It will go the other way this time.

Keep that TPV (avocado) up in SE Canada and not plowing into the Midwest and we might actually do this. Balancing act....displace it South too far and run the risk of squashed cold and dry....not displaced enough and the SER flex wins out and we go warm/wet. There is a path to victory but it is narrow imo. Hopefully we can widen the goalposts moving forward.

Don’t worry. This miserable winter is just setting us up for an historical storm in March.

This has been a long winter.  Normally we have some tracking to distract us. Snow makes it fun and bright. Now it’s just dark.

I get it. This 'song and dance' happens almost every winter though. At least the ensembles provide some degree of stability when tracking patterns in the LR. Lay off the op runs lol.

The upcoming period is different in that there are hits to the south and offshore unlike the previous windows of opportunity.  Let’s see where we are by the weekend.  No  snow maps from me until the weekend…(yes, I promise!)

 

 

That is different for sure. At least we have an alternative failure mode on the table. The cutter thing got boring ages ago.
