katabatic Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 We're getting to the point where snowfall amount probabilities in the Sierra/northeast CA won't even matter--being replaced by certainties. Snow amounts will be so much and difficult to accurately measure due to strong winds producing prolonged periods of near zero visibility, and blowing/drifting snow capable of burying vehicles and making it difficult to locate roads. Even walking outside would not be advised during this storm as a person could quickly become lost or disoriented. Its going to get chilly here, but this is the AFD for the Sierra Nevada. I'm chasing it. Flying out today at 4 PM to Reno and spending 6 nights up near Donner Pass. This should be the chase of a lifetime. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since mid November we have for the most part made up for that crushing drought in the Valley last year, but heading into the spring growing season down here we certainly don't want a drier than normal March following this February... The drought may have ended but it was still going strong only 3 months ago... Not sure if the ground water level has fully recovered yet... Good News!! We have returned to near normal. It bottomed out at 91.34 ft. on November 21, now up to 71.16 ft.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 A beautiful day but no walks for me for a while as I just had surgery for a torn achilles. I love gardening too but that's not looking good! Partly sunny and 58. I know it's been said a lot but we so better not get a perfect block and a gulf/east coast low in April for low 40s and rain for two days 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Most all high end predictions don’t work out anymore but let’s see if the Mega Front concept still can . its my own arbitrary but these are the parameters to qualify around DC . Either/Or does it 13 degree drop in one hour. 18 degree drop in 2 hours 23 degree drop in 3 hours 28 degree drop in 6 hours 35 degree drop in 12 hours 42 degree drop in 24 hours I believe great November front if 1995 that set off great 95-96 winter qualified on all 6 or 5 of 6 and I can’t remember another that did.

My Airbnb is at 7,100 feet on the windward side of the Sierra. The condo is at the base of Donner ski resort so if there is anywhere that’s going to max out on QPF, this will be it.

I think most here would be happy with that. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
