Its been lousy this winter...I thought it was my imagination til someone in the SNE forum posted the numbers....the last 2 winters the wildly progressive pattern and NRN Stream dominance due to the La Nina played into its natural biases but the El Nino this winter with a more active SRN Stream its not been as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 8, 2024 Share Posted February 8, 2024 That really is one hell of a blocky look across the HL region. The hellacious 50-50 low says hold my beer to the impressive Aleutian low. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, when the two pieces (GOA low and 50/50) have greater -anomaly than the +blocking, it's an even better signal (like the map you posted).

Guidance is slowing down the STJ wave which gives it more is a chance to catch a phase with the NS. Actually Im not even sure it’s the same wave we were tracking a few days ago. That one gets totally squashed around the 18th. What was two waves after is now one stronger wave on the GEFS. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I swear, if the storm cannot happen on that day so we can officially declare it PD3, then screw it, we shouldn't get a storm at all and let's not get any other snow the rest of this winter!!!

Lol Hey don't get me wrong, I'll take a big snow any day of the week...I just illogically don't trust stuff to go right after PD-March 1st....at least for a big storm (12"+) anyway.

While He doesn't HAVE to do it, I'd sure love it if He did And hey listen, while I'd certainly take a big snow whatever day of the week...but man, how can ya not at least imagine that? I mean you've got ingredients...and it's a Niño that's not a torch, a strong stj wave coming up PD weekend, blocking...theoretically it feels like it's the closest setup we've had for a PD3 since.

Maestrobjwa Posted February 9, 2024 Share Posted February 9, 2024 Since we're between model cycles, the part of my brain that, for whatever reason attaches meaning to dates and such just can't get past this list...Top 25 snowstorms in Baltimore and not a one the last week of Feb...Even 2010 missed that week! Have an illogical distrust of it... Side note: All the ones I marked happened on PD weekend that year...just sayin' (although 2014 was technically Thurs-Fri) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
