Can’t even entertain a scenario where I can’t book a flight later this week in advance of the blizzard of the century. Hope I cancel this ticket still, quite frankly I’ve told this story many times, but I was able to convince people that we needed to shut down a conference in California in January 2016 because we wouldn’t be able to get home for a week if we stayed. Worked a charm. I was the first to rebook my flight (red eye from LAX) and will never forget my elation while on the people mover at Dulles on the morning that storm started. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remember that @mattie g, where you were making plans to come back to this area in time for that Jan. 2016 blizzard! I also remember the...uhhhh, how to put it..."guitar player" icon you used for your avatar during that event (he was strumming...something...that's for sure!)!!!

Southwest is nice with it like that. basically banked credit for a future snow chase You'll sleep a lot better the next few nights with that booked. That alone might be worth it lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted Monday at 12:43 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:43 AM I am returning on the 14th. I have a dreaded feeling my heart will be broken. I have a commitment I absolutely cannot miss, otherwise I’d do what North Arlington is doing. I hardly even care about missing the upcoming 8-10” anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also returning on the 14th from FL, although I’m not heading there until the 9th so I’m here for tomorrow’s one. In 2016 I found an excuse to fly in from Boston for it, and people thought I was nuts 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frd Posted Monday at 12:50 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:50 AM https://x.com/jhomenuk/status/1876047026221424731 John Homenuk @jhomenuk This evenings GEFS has trended sharply towards a more meridional orientation to vorticity entering the US & a faster ejecting upper low from the Baja Days 4-6. Should this trend continue, chances for a strong Eastern US cyclone next weekend could increase. A very volatile setup. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frd Posted Monday at 12:52 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:52 AM https://x.com/jhomenuk/status/1876047049285836995 There has been a lot of discussion about the phasing here. In actuality, there are multiple phases occurring - a first phase with a Pacific disturbance around 84-96 hours, and then a second (And potentially third) phase with a more "true" polar disturbance. Extremely complex. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever my wife calls me a weather nerd, which happens surprisingly often, I remind her of your story from 2016 as a way to center her perspective. Yeah, it doesn’t work that well. She just comes back with some snippy comment like, “safety in numbers is a fallacy…”. Ha. You are semi-famous in casa de das. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After just telling my family I booked a backup flight for Friday I told them @mattie g’s story to try and help my case.

baltosquid Posted Monday at 01:21 AM Share Posted Monday at 01:21 AM I am set to arrive 7am 1/11, so if this were to materialize, may need to try to rebook to arrive even earlier… best feeling is being the last plane in.
