When we travel I try to make a point of checking out the local book section in book stores... I've found some gems featuring local storm events... The best pictorial book on the 38 hurricane I ever came across was found in a bookstore in Watch Hill... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really the confidence drops so much after D10-12 even on the regular ensembles…nevermind weeklies. If there’s one takeaway from the last couple of runs starting last night, it’s that even if the central Canada blocky pattern doesn’t produce, it’s a good omen for the polar domain later on…we should avoid a ‘94-95 evolution even if we temporarily look like 1994 for a week in December. Agree... I still think the long range modeling had it right about Jan & Feb featuring Pacific energy under-cutting higher heights across western and central Canada leading to a very active storm pattern... The only question will be amount of cold sitting across eastern Canada and the Northeast prior to the arrival of each storm. I would roll the dice with this type of pattern any winter. Hopefully we see cold periods hang in there enough times to allow for some widespread snow events... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Picked up 4” in squalls today at the Mtn and looks like even a couple inches in town. Enough for them to plow the driveway though that might have been overkill. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vaguely remember a nino sometime in the mid/late 90s that was warm and wet which actually skewed my belief back then that “el nino’s” are bad for our winters.

Yup..remember it well, except for that one storm, the winter sucked. But it was sandwiched between two historic winters(93-94, and 95-96). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Why are we bringing up ‘94-‘95 so often? Between that and 2011-2012 I’m not sure which winter wins as the worst of all time. ‘94-‘95 is tantamount to, “Hey … remember that girl that broke your heart so bad it took 10 to 15 years to get over and about $30,000 worth of psychotactic treatments …?” Thanks for bringing it up… Lol Worst I’ve ever ever experienced. I tend to give it to ‘94-‘95 as the all time ahole because the Halloween storm in 2011 was such an unusual specter it kind of gives that winter a little bit back. Of course, then there’s philosophy over whether that storm took place actually in winter - makes that a bit dubious. Making any kind of comparison to the 1994 right now is probably the worst troll anyone could come up with. Beautifully done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a decent Pacific analog, but it was descending solar on the heels of Pinatubo, so the pole is very different. I also expect the PNA to be more positive this season, which is working out, so far.
