Frog Town Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 We just need to be patient until Mid December when the mean trough repositions itself to benefit our sub forum. We've waited like 7 years(2017 was last time we had this) so two weeks of a clipper pattern could be worse. Common people! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually could see an avg to below (possibly well below for some) Dec in the books to end the year for sub as a whole. We shall see. Expand Looks like the models are trying to work out an active stm pattern as they close in on mid Dec. That's what I'm seeing too. Hopefully I will get in on some good synoptic/lake enhanced snows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malacka11 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 "Looking out beyond day 7 into the 2nd week of December, the large scale pattern may become supportive of a larger, moisture laden storm system somewhere in the Midwest. Needless to say, this idea is subject to change, though has some ensemble support and we`ll be keeping an eye on it. Chances for any widespread noteworthy accumulating snow and travel impacts are low until a pattern change can occur. Castro" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I'm right there with you, king. My last decent storm was early February of 2021, but it was really just 10" of concrete that fell fairly unremarkably. It was a good snow for sure, but never supposed to be a big dog type of situation. The last actual dawg was for sure GHDII, but totals aside, that storm wasn't really a nuke either, of course. GHDI is the first and only "real shit" blizzard I've ever experienced (moved here from Germany in 2008), and I'll be biding my time until whenever a storm matches it. It's hard to grasp the rarity of a storm like that when one happens after just a couple years of living somewhere. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
