Use to be worse when the euro came out at 12:46 am.

Wouldn't like the 12z not be available until like 4-5-6 PM? and literally it was like one product freely available? I could be wrong but once I got introduced into forecast models I thought that's how it was.

Yeah now shortly after midnight we have the euro.   I’ve always been a night owl.  I remember being 6 years old and being forced to go to bed.  I rarely fell asleep for hours.  Now that I’ve been released by the clock most of the world runs on I’m on a 2am-10am sleep schedule.

Good question......I'll stay up later in the summer, perhaps 9:30.

 

Meanwhile, it's a little nipply here  at Pit2.  Already down to 17.

Been hovering at 30° here so much warmer, but we never got above freezing today. I do wonder how many days my area can string together.

Same here. Always been a night owl.

I was a huge night owl as well. Used to stay up until all hours of the night and be out with friends until 1-2 AM. For some reason I always had more energy at night then during the day. But once I started working full time, I was working 6 AM - 3 PM and would have to wake up around 4:15-4:30 AM...that KILLED me. It was brutal, I had zero energy in the afternoon and weekends I was dead. I would try going to bed by 8 PM but I couldn't fall asleep until midnight. I ended up having to switch to do a typical 8-5. 

If I could though...I would love the earlier day, I wish I had the energy to wake up 5-6 AM. I actually grew to like some aspects of it but it was killing me. I don't know how people do it. I guess they must get like a solid 8 hours of sleep. My problem is I wake up every 2 hours or so.

He’s probably means a couple decades ago when it was just one run per day and it was like 12 hours behind. We’d be waiting in the evening for the 12z run on WWBB. 

I remember waiting for it to update on weather.unisys.com. Usually around 8pm. Then it was more like 6-7pm in the 2003ish years. I think that site went defunct like 6-8 years ago. Lol.

From my vantage point, we had a H - B - or whatever ECS 5 days ago on GFS that promptly vanished from sight on said GFS very next run...

Only to be given a heartbeat (not saying at the 'get your affairs in order' level) at the 12Z today but notably, NOT vanishing on the very next run... and then some Euro support thrown in for good measure..  Details TBD, but my interest is ratcheted several notches and what looked to be a boring 14-day stretch of ho-hum fraught with trapped Boo hoo peninsula energy, has now - behold - given rise to something to check in and track.  This is IMHO, good.

I remember waiting for the crappy 24hrly maps on Plymouth and then that 8-10 day average. Euro pbp was important back then. And getting QPF info from anyone was like getting a peek at classified documents.

Lol, reminds me of ecmwf.int sending emails in 2009. One of my few meltdowns on here.

I feel this, despite my life requiring 10pm to 5am.

Persistent poor snow growth arctic light snow at 1-3sm and 12 degrees.  Roads look like Alaska tundra with dry dense sifting around between the snowbanks.

Champlain Valley in on it too with BTV at 0.75sm -SN at 18F.

In the slot (tucked) 
Like I stated 4-6" would be generous per 18z OP

Disagree to a raging E wind, can only imagine ML temps?
Not imagining '78 walking through the door. 

Well that won’t be the final solution, so it’s kind of a moot point at 7 days out. But if you say so Roosta.

89 was near whiteout through JSpin’s neck of the woods. It blew of the travel lanes but that made it difficult to see.

My initial post was based on 18z GFS. / It was questioned, thus my reason for posting. Nothing more nothing less.
Of course, it's wrong and so will every run up to go time. (no ill-will intended) We'll just hope for something similar.
