Right. Adding data to my post, since I moved back for the 2018-19 season I’ve recorded continuous snowpack at my location at or above ten days twice.

Haven’t had a decent retention season since 2020-21…most of our good retention seasons come during weakish ENSO….a few exceptions like 2010-11 or 2007-08…tho even that year had quite a few thaws…they just quickly were followed by another snow event. 
 

That said, a nice retention stretch wouldn’t shock me this year. February has a shot at it if we can build a semi-permanent PNA ridge.

No, I could see it in February...I was just speaking of the season in the DM aggregate.

Latitude.  We'll finish this mess with 12-13" pack and >3" SWE.  We managed to reach 36" last season even though it was the warmest of 25 cold seasons (DJFM) here.  I could see us going into the 20s by 1/17.

Nice little system.

Almost looks like 3/4/19-lite based on QPF distribution that run.

But hell, while 6-10 would be nice, I'd take half that prior to the arctic cold behind it.

Canadian gets it done too with a bit of a scraper.

Actually a pretty good hit over SE areas. But for interior more like an advisory event. But even if we're not getting huge totals, even hitting on a few of these advisory threats would go a long ways toward helping us have an AN snow season.

Yep, just want something white that will last and we'll see how it is going forward.

Yep, just need to keep getting production. The 20th continues being one to watch too.

The ensemble signal is pretty paltry...I'm wondering if we don't eventually kick that entire cyclogenic can a bit closer to the ~20th.

Yea, this makes more sense to me...I don't think that event will be a huge deal.

GFS is going to be a lot flatter for 1/15-16 this run.

Rather odd that only 3 GEFS members have it

The pressures are high so a lot of them won't show up either on that product...I think they have to be sub-1005.

But the mean QPF isn't that impressive anyway...it gets maybe an inch or two back to I-95.
