Btw, it used to snow many years ago. Found this Pic while rummaging through old photos at my parents tonight. It was 1979, we raised Perdue chickens and so instead of a snowman we made a snow chicken Lol. Even made the local newspaper back then, I'm the cute little guy on the left 🤣🤣

We aren’t the only ones sucking. I think in 10-15 years snow south of Philly will be only observed in photos.

This is in no way a knock on anyone here, because it's really hard to do. But I've noticed over the past few years that our model predictions are not very good. It almost always results in something like:

Oh man massive changes this run.

Dud

Oh well, on to the next one.

Pretty much over the last few years the models have figured out it doesn't snow here and have stopped teasing us with fantasy snows. So no matter what changes there are it's going to be a dud because 90% or more of the time a dud is exactly what we get and it's always been that way. Problem is the other 10% of the time when something actually used to work out has all but disappeared.

Meh, there just hasn’t been a legit threat yet. It can still snow, but our goal posts seem to be very narrow now.

Well have a nice week or so of cool weather but it’ll likely will not pan out for snow. Hope for another one at some point in a few weeks. It’s either that or find something else to do.

That's right I can tell by reading this board morale is at an all time low going to winter. Early Dec is usually too early for snow. At least in my neck of the woods snow in Dec occurs on average every 5 years. It's been 6 so we're due. But it mostly is later in the month when it occurs.

Seems most have a fear this is our 2 week shot and once it's over it flips warm and never looks back. That's a legit concern given the last few years. Doesn't matter Enso, east or west QBO, -NAO, -EPO, doesn't matter, all resulted in torch winters and below average snowfall lately. We've seemed to be able to point to the MJO as the culprit but what happens when we finally sit and loop in 7, 8 and 1 all winter and still have the same result?
