Yep. Before, it was a classic HP in place with a 50/50 low and cold in place with a trailing wave, which has far more breathing room. Now we are relying on a timely phase. Most likely won’t work out imo our luck is to bad for that

Yeah it’s unfortunate. NS and west coast coast are way too active. Imagine this setup with a 1041 high pressure bridge back into the Arctic. When the Sierra Nevadas are racking up feet on feet on feet 9/10 that doesn’t bode well for anyone along the east coast.

The most frustrating part for me is that this is no longer a traditional overrunning setup. And it looked so good a few days ago. The overall storm setup is not checking a lot of the boxes for me anymore

It's never easy when years it doesn't snow....and that seems to be a habit lately.

Yeah. At least H5 looks prettier on recent runs though I suppose. Nice to see the western ridging coming back, but me personally im starting to get beat down and starting to want spring more and more. Can’t beat days like yesterday

It has to snow though. The ingredients have been there. Just at the wrong times. And it snowed at like 9 degrees in Alabama and Mississippi this winter. And Death Valley gets snow. It can snow. It will snow again. A lot of snow

Would be nice if we can get the period just after this storm to flip to give us a decent shot into the end of February. By March 1 I’m over it.
 
It's just how the climate works now, especially outside the mountains in NC. The cold comes when it's dry, and then it warms up and rains, dries out and gets colder again. We just can't get the cold and precip to match up. It's been this way for the last few years, and snow chances are getting less and less. Just have to come to terms with it. We will have more severe threats in winter than winter storm threats. That's probably what we should look forward to following now instead of snow.
 
Just to level set for my own understanding--We are not even sure of the pattern out west in 72hrs correct? That's not very good weather modeling in my estimation
