I know you will call me a traitor, but with all the back breaking shoveling this year, if it shifted south, I wouldn't shed a tear.Just need 5.5 inches to get to number two on my all time snow list.

Doc come on I thought you were a SUPER SNOW WEENIE. What's happening to you ? I may have to have are KING SNOW WEENIE Mugs give you a pep talk, like Patton did to his troops.  

LOL!

I'll turn my aching back in CP's direction so it hopefully hears that pep talk first!

Wow Doc I'm shocked. This may cost you your HV green card

Polar Vortex. It is a large upper air anomaly that cannot be seen. It's a North Pole phenomena, but sometimes it travels the polar jet and gets as far south as the Great Lakes. It drags down Arctic air

Back in the day there was no term for this PV so it was called an Arctic High 70's and 80's, the Polar Express in the late 80's and 90's- they sensationalized this IMO - as a kid we called it just plain.................. cold!    Everything needs a label nowadays.

"hey you kids, get that Polar Vortex off my lawn!"

Also let's not have any talk today about breaking the all time record. We're still in the 7th spot at 57.3 inches. That's 18.4 inches to go that's a long way off. Let's try and get NYC to the mid 60's or at least the top 3 before we utter those words again.

Of course no one is rooting for it more than me but silently. These storms sense when we discuss these things and turn against us.

Yes I am perfectly sane in every other aspect of my life other than winter weather and snow.

But CP, some storms are so strong that even the waves of weenieness that are eminating from these pages cannot dampen their potential.

And Doc, my back has never been more messed up from shoveling so I'm right there with you, but we've had a few days to recover so it'll be okay. It's the next one that may follow quick on this one that has my spine a bit nervous. My flat roof as well.

DOC,

My good man and leader of the wisedom court of my Snow Weenie Kingdom,

What is it his I am hearing - dissent among the Snow Weenie ranks?

front and center.........

let me clear my throat...............


You need to snap out of it! Take off the skirt and pull up your pants (not the depends ones get rid of those pronto), put on your big boy underpants and for God's sake put your Snow Weenie face on and get ready to do battle. We will go out there and take this one. Now fall into order and wipe this ludicrous thought from your memory!!!!!!

Anymore of such talk and you will be admonished from the Snow Weenie Kingdom never to return again!!

Carry on!

Not that it means very much at all but the NAM is pretty warm at hr 84...

Meh, doesnt bother me much, GFS goes that direction or EURO stays the same or gets warmer or the NAM shows it as we get into range than il get concerned

Definitely, don't think i'll really put too much stock into the NAM until tomorrow night.

Well would look at this beast the West Coast will be dealing with - look like a hurricane for Pete's sake!!

Out of it's range. Don't look at that for another 36 hours.

wow mugs thats a crazy looking event for CA, is that out storm? GFS has started someone post on it if they can.

Yes that is why I posted it - I posted the NWS in LA yesterday saying this is going to be the strongest storm with the most overall area implications for Cali in 3 years - pretty strong statement but you see why from that radar shot - looks like Sandy (she was better all the way around though)!

Wow, IMO we are in for a good dumping with that thing, I understand it wil lchange form but still the energy!

Mugs.

Very inspirational speech. Patton would be proud.

Hopefully doc comes to his senses. The next step is interrogation by Snowman and nobody wants that. It could get ugly.

12z GFS looking cold so far, nothing like the NAM

Yeah, definitely looks cold. Hopefully it's not south/colder than the 6z lol

GFS says it starts snowing Sunday morning...another solution coming up?

Heh mugs, doc, CP you all so funny.

Morgan, the chick next to me, says it is going to snow. So the storm will happen everyone.

HOLY - I think I just Pissed meself !!! LMAO!! - Oh, I can't catch my breath - toooo Funny!!

Snowman is ready - he'll make the drive from Marshall's Creek in no time to fix the Doc!

Big run incoming from the 12z GFS. It is slightly warmer, which may actually be a good thing. The gradient is still well south of us with a lot of moisture located in the center of the country.

Big runs have been with the GFS for a few days now, I dunno its making its come back!

Knocking on wood and crossing legs and fingers.

It is snowing very lightly from late Sunday afternoon (there was some snow in the morning of Sunday as well per GFS) through 5am, then the moderate snow moves in around 6am
