Takes ~3 weeks for 10 mb signatures to reach the troposphere
Unless your winter outlook is all-in for a mild DEC in the eastern CONUS...what's not to like about HIGH pressure parked in PNA-land as the winter solstice approaches?

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving!
I appreciate you posting that 2M temp info, it is actually something I was trying to incorporate into the post, but was running out of time before my children awoke and had to get finished.
Agreed that BL temps not supportive of flakes reaching the surface, but might be an impressive looking virga signature.
The maps and charts you have would be valuable resources for the student climate teleconnector project we're working on. May I have your permission to link to those and credit your site?
Beyond that-- I am also interested to know if you could serve as an expert resource for the 2 teachers involved in our project. This would be occasional email correspondance between the three of us- and mainly to get your professional reaction to the data and analysis put together by the classes. I think they would be absolutely thrilled to know a one-time NOAA meteorologist was participating with them!
99/00 - spawned on USENET/s ne.wx newsgroup to discover which poster(s) made skillful forecasts for synoptic-scale snowfalls in the NE and Mid-Atlantic. No formal entry process. Forecasts gleaned from newsgroup posts. Contest storms: 5
00/01 - Permanent station list created. (RDU - CAR). Rules and scoring formalized. First Contest 12/30. Contest storms: 10
01/02 - 'Season-total' forecasting contest launched. Twenty-five forecasters predicted each station/s 'total snowfall' for the winter. First Contest storm 12/9. Contest storms: 9
02/03 - First Contest storm 11/27. Contest storms: 10
03/04 - Web site launched. Developed online entry forms. Streamlined forecast reporting and verification processes. Added two forecast stations (BGR, BGM). First Contest storm 12/14. Contest storms: 10
04/05 - First Contest storm 12/20. Contest storms: 9
05 /06 - First Contest storm 12/5. Contest storms: 4

NEWxSFC appreciates greatly the on-going support from Senior Forecaster Donald Rosenfeld who began sponsoring the Contest/s web site in 2003 and enabled the development of our online entry forms.

Happy Thanksgiving to you..as well.
Link away...Mr. Foot! There are many great resources available that sometimes fly under the radar.
I/m e-mailing you a message later this AM about your proposal.
