Christmas 2017 to January 5, 2018

00z GFS delays the Christmas front a little with it coming through on Christmas Day instead.

Harp, I mean you get sneaux on December 8, one of, if not the biggest, earliest widespread southern deep south sneauxstorms that has ever occurred and you are asking for more, like even a white Christmas? Gosh, How can you, like I mean, come on now....................................... Well is the GFS dry? Seriously now. In order to have two sneauxs in a season, you have to have the first one. And we have had the first one. For the next 1-2 weeks towards Christmas the AO looks to rise quickly going positive and PNA drop so we will have some seasonal weather. However the longer range ensembles towards, more likely just after Christmas, before New Years, are suggesting ridging to develop again over Alaska, Asia and Greenland with some decent cold air coming south. This time with more of a sneaux pack up north. Hopefully our sneaux storm is just beginning of a remarkable winter here in the deep south including Harpland!

LMAO Tim, that's funny. Not that y'all got shafted just the pic. It's crazy to think us down here in ascesnion got more than many places in the mid Atlantic. But not rubbing it in because at least they get a real threat every year. Y'all even got more than some places than NC did. Here's to hoping we can get one more in this winter and have it even more widespread so everyone in South LA can join in on the fun. 

I was very happy with what I got, even though it was barely a dusting. Especially so EARLY in the season. I mentioned that in a previous post, I believe. BECAUSE it was so early, I suppose it's unreasonable for me to think it could happen again. Real winter hasn't even started yet. I was simply asking a question based on Scott's post of the GFS temperatures. In reality, I don't expect anything else this year. These are very rare events, but it's always enjoyable for me to look ahead, especially considering we aren't even into othe heart of winter yet.

I can relate to the cruise, as we had the unfortunate timing, that the only cruise we ever went on, yep...in the Yucatan on Dec 11, 2008! LOL
I am really happy, that so many received such a good amount, and, even better, with minimum ice accumulation. I lived in Montgomery, for 18 years, so I experienced a few more snow events, then down here. Most notable, I was in Montgomery for the March, 1993, superstorm, where we had about 4 to 5 inches. We even experienced thundersnow!
