Sounds like the same thing except you didn't get the rest.

I was lucky it hit me when I woke up one morning and just stayed home that day.

so the euro 're-compresses' the flow in that time period now ... of course

anything more favorable looking between the 23rd and the end of the month was predicated on that relaxation - imho.  without it, it's more nuanced and far less predictive.

this is our problem ...    non-hydrostatic heights exceeding 594 dm in latter January near by E of the Bahamas, pressing up against a mid Canadian shield PV that's below 500.  

nothing is going to squeeze thru there and conserve enough of it's own mechanics capable of doing jack shit

Some members of the EPS towards day 9 or so have something lurking off the coast. Something to watch in case the right s/w came pivoting south despite the Daytona 500(mb) running up the east coast.

thank god then ... winter's half over today by met calendar.

Was just thinking the same thing. At this point, I feel like the only thing that's going to happen is a surprise. Everything modeled never turns out the way it shows, especially when it's showing something major and then as we get within a week of the event, it just gets squashed. 

I do feel we'll have that surprise, just don't know when.. uugghh

How do you think I feel in the Summer  

I make a thread for convection...just general thunderstorms with maybe a rogue severe storm or two and everyone is screaming bust because there are no EF3s or widespread destructive winds or widespread hail...NO SHIT....never said there was going to be. 

But there’s also never any thunderstorms anymore.

might be time to start admitting certain large scale irrecoverable limitations

In case anybody cares, today is the anniversary of the Great Molasses Flood in Boston.  It was definitely a weather related event.

Fast  flow, destructive interference, compression… it seems like it’s been going on for multiple years in a row now.

I read a really good book about this.  Dark Tide by Stephen Puleo.  A bad case of corporate malfeasance for sure 106 years ago.

Only 21" of snow that season. Do you just let the molasses take you at that point?

Doesn't seem like a large enough sample size to me to make any definitive correlations. Not saying there isn't though

Not me, at this point. If I could opt out of this season right now, I would do so without blinking.

Depends on the pattern...it usually is an issue somewhere, it just depends on how the medium is slanted. This season, we're in the compression field, but south of us has done just fine.

Heads up to folks out there.  There's a nasty virus going around. I thankfully very rarely catch any bugs. Probably been 25 years since the last time. Last night I started shaking uncontrollably, severe headache and pressure in the forehead. The girlfriend had it earlier in the week and a neighbor as well.

I had something weird happen to me last night.    I run my school ski club. I basically sit in the Wachusett base lodge while the kids ski in case they need anything.  So, time to leave.  I had been sitting and standing inside for 4 hours.  Go to walk to my car.  Maybe 300 feet.  And it was chilly…20F, but nothing bad

When I got to my car, I had the worst case of shivering I can ever recall experiencing   I could barely open the door to the car and start it   It lasted around 3 or 4 minutes   I almost called 911, then it went away   

 

 

This exact same thing happened to me in late January/early February of 2020.  I have never had such uncontrollable shivering and general achiness.  It was before Covid blew up so I don't think it was that and it didn't last all that long, maybe 2 or 3 days.

I just meant with cc, at least I think that's what was being implied by Tip.

Okay, all this talk about being sick and the shivers, please stop talking about it. I don't need to catch this from any of you.... Hahaha.

It does suck joe. We've been lucky in our house as of this season. My daughter just had a real bad cold but that was it. Hopefully we miss this round this year. Sorry to any of you who didn't

At this point, might as well.  Browsing through the mid Atlantic pages and see most down there have already beaten my 6" so far.

Bring on the slow molasses death.

I know. 

[H2Otown_WX]

So CC has given us permanently fast/compressed flow?
