It looks fairly dismal for snow lovers around this area for the foreseeable future if one believes the majority of the long range models. Common sense makes me believe the models, too. Storms coming one after another into California together with the continuing pattern of storms either ...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
For all of you bemoaning the lack of snow this winter, at this point it is simply a matter of "not yet". Of course, it is possible that 3 months from now I will proclaim "not at all". But, that is ...

KEEP A WATCHFUL EYE |

|
This past storm reminded me of a combination of the Millenium snowstorm in 12/99 (due to its 4 to 6 hour ferocity of unrelenting 2 inch per hour snowfall rates) and the 1/87 snowstorm (due to its widespread 6 to 12 inch snowfall coverage). One of the anchors on ...

NOT THE BIG ONE? |
1/26/2004 at 11:00:00 PM |

All of the computer model schemes agree on the unfolding of the snowstorm scenario from later tomorrow night through Wednesday midday. It is possible that some areas to the south and east of I-95 could see a mix. Areas that don’t mix could see 12 to 18 inches. ...
