    Very difficult forecast for PWM. There’s going to be a very narrow area 6”+ amounts with this..

    Hope ya’ll checking the progged radar output on the 12z GFS.

    Too low in midcoast Maine to Portland. 6z EPS had 1” qpf. There will be a over a foot locally there. Also think this is too high over here. This map appears as more of an uncertainty cast as to where the band sets up… The band will be about 100 miles wide; go with 2” outside of that and call it a day.

    Yea not talking about that. Talking about later…

    The shit streak surprise in SNE tells me expect some forcing to be robbed with the part two “lead” of the clippah.
  6. jbenedet
    Better off taking the under 10:1 on ratios. I also don’t see how I eek out 0.25” qpf here but all the guidance showing it… On ratios - the risks are not BLtemp related but lift, weak snow growth, and scattered light precip. None of this bodes well to stack. 7:1 probably better hedge… Unless you get into the IVT this should be the story in eastern New England sans Maine and the far interior of NH.

    This still looks more like a late blooming miller B to me. Two maxes. One in far western sections before the transfer and the second in mid coast- down east Maine, + (maybe the cape). There will be a min in between that transfer as clipper fizzles. Think less norlun, more miller B ish type evolution.

    lol “storm”. Yea go run with that to your friends. Tell them about the incoming storm. Moose fart is more like it.

    There’s a late blooming miller b type distribution of qpf showing up on the ensemble guidance. That’s likely how this evolves… A local max at points west of CT river, and then points east in Maine with the weak/late redevelopment. Very weak system overall.

    The EPS and GEFS are nothing like the ops. All kinds of red flags on the 6z euro with a 1007 mb low near PWM on the 6z EPS and weaker from the prior run. This is a weak low surrounded by surface highs, with no opportunity to amplify with the mid level flow compressing out of southeast Canada. Shrediola.

    Seeing some rich green grass pop through the snow cover has me thinking this early season snowfall did a lot of good to help my young lawn establish further before being really stressed.
  13. jbenedet
    This storm just kept steadily intensifying on all guidance over time. Now seeing 969 mb, on the euro, about 200 miles north of Quebec City.

    Agreed. But usually if there’s a refreeze the morning before temp/td spike you can get some resistance out of the pack. No chance if it’s been thawing for 24+ hours, as will be in this case.
  15. jbenedet
    Guidance was too low for the morning temps up here. Even DAW stayed comfortably above freezing all night.
  16. jbenedet
    Real killer to the pack is 32+ dews though and that happened before midnight and kept slowly rising all morning.
  17. jbenedet
    Today’s progged highs will easily be exceeded. Upper 40’s in view for many.
  18. jbenedet
    There’s a lot of support for that look. La Nina (Jan), the EPS and GEFS forecasts for the NAO teleconnection are also aligned for deeply negative. The op runs signaling similar. Start worrying.
  19. jbenedet
    It matches the teleconnection forecast. Not good.
  20. jbenedet
    Yea this is kinda where I’m at, especially with peak winter climo a few weeks away. NYC metro close enough to watch with keen interest…
  21. jbenedet
    The cutter will wipe anywhere that doesn’t fall below freezing tonight. Probably the usual line cutting through DAW and N ORH to just north of PWM…
  22. jbenedet
    This isn’t what we want for the bulk of New England. Seasonal cold and dry, especially in northern New England. Once this -NAO gets entrenched it could even result in N, to AN in Northern and eastern sections of New England. In a La Niña this is something we should be vigilante against as tendency into January is dry up here. The main takeaway is this will send most storm tracks south. I’d be watching intently in mid Atlantic, down to Virginia.
  23. jbenedet
    Euro with 978 mb in southern Ottawa. 61 is record high for the date here. They will be under threat regionally Should be taking notes that all of our big storms have been cutters. From someone who only wants big snowstorms, and seasonal cold. This is pattern is trash.
  24. jbenedet
    Bc it will be gone by Thursday, and the SNE region up to seacoast NH, Boston and Portland will be tracking less than half climate average snowfall through Christmas. But sure “optimism”. Snow colored glasses and chest pounding from 40/70 too. Good luck with the blogspot. It’s been so bad that 4” gets the attention of DCer’s around here.
  25. jbenedet
    That looks like heavy snow in western queens/nassau right now. ~35 dBz Congrats. Don’t think any major metros up to Portland Maine have seen that this season.
