?... Still shifting north I take it.

I wonder... Would they actually upgrade the Winter weather advisory in Hartford to a winter storm warning?

Wow... So what's the Snow nap look like

Shyte!!! I mean.... I I'm ecstatic for all my peeps in Ct ( I'm gonna miss the goods ). Lol!! Figures... But oh well.... I'll be checking in while I'm gone.

You should be in a very good spot as well!! You too

A question I do have. Once this storm is over, say we have 6 in on the ground. Do we think it'll still be there after the rain Sunday night? I know the temperatures aren't supposed to get too warm. Warm. Hoping there's some snow on the ground when we get back from Canada

Maybe up until next week.... After that .... Don't agree at all.

I'll tell you what.... it's fun watching all this unfold ( even though I'm going to miss it all ) We're leaving around 3:00 in the morning tonight for Canada and we'll be back on Tuesday. So I'll miss the snow, and then I'll miss the rain ( which will be melting some of the snow away ). But my gut is not all the snow will be melted as the temperatures don't look to be super warm when it rains on Sunday night. I guess I'll see you when I get back. Hopefully they'll be something next weekend. I'm still glad to see there's a good thump of snow coming for Connecticut and all my peeps on here. I'll live vicariously through your posts.. lol

I keep looking at the national weather service to see if they're going to extend the winter storm watches more into Connecticut than just Southwest CT. I wouldn't be surprised if by later today they include at least the western half of Connecticut in the winter storm watch, maybe not Litchfield county. By the way, Merry Christmas to everyone

Let's make it up in January and February. If we can do that, December will be forgotten ( and I mean in a good way )

I generally like the map, but 4"-8" is a bit lofty.

Only to be melted by the rain the next day. What I'm hoping for with the pattern set up looking into January is that we have the cold that stays in place. That way when we do have snow events it won't melt the next day.

You lost me at Hello! (Jk)... But .....wow, do you have a way of extrapolating your thoughts. However, after reading through your very deep reasoning on people going in circles ( basically, the f definition of insanity ) , yes it makes a lot of sense.

Maybe immediately that might be the case, but everything into January is stepping down to a colder solution with flocking. I'm not saying this is the answer to our prayers LOL, but warming coming our way. Way. That's just not what's showing. Plus the warm pattern that was showing is already being squashed as it has been thus far.

Like I said, things just didn't line up properly for a lot of Southern New England. But it wasn't a total loss. Southern areas of Connecticut got a decent amount of snow at the last system. And I believe out in the cape there was a decent amount of snow from that system as well. Just wait .... We are going to do much better after the new year. The pattern is definitely shifting in that direction as a whole.

Far from over. If we keep the cold in place for January and February.... Our Snow changes go up significantly. Things aren't what we would like right now, but pattern wise, our chances look promising going into the next few months. Just let this crap pattern go for this month. Don't dwell on it.

Well, 2 weather outlets already have snow maps up. One takes the 3"-6" from the Connecticut River West, to the East of the river 2"-4"/1"-3". Another has the Southwest 1/3rd in the 3"-6", the middle chunk of the state 2"-4", and the northeastern corner 1"-3". They must feel more confident with the Euro and also the fact the models have bumped NE somewhat.

We still have tomorrow and Thursday and most of the day Friday before the system comes into the area. Most seem to be writing this off because of the southward push on the models. I'm not saying this is definitely going to come north again, but there's a good chance that it will tick back North again, and even to a point where we're all in the game. I would say if this doesn't change by Thursday evening, it's a goner.

We actually had a storm back in I think 2020 .. December I believe. We had at least a few inches of sleet during the day and later that night I remember we had thunder and lightning and everything turned to Snow.... By the next day when it stopped in the early afternoon, we had about 16 or so inches.

We'll see about the Friday/Saturday deal. The one Brooklyn is posting about is New Year's Day.

I fixed my post. Sometimes it's a mistake when you're at work to try to make a post in between work stuff.

Sorry about that, and I'm at work and tried doing a quick post. I just fixed it. Didn't know if it showed us getting several inches, but I wasn't sure if we should trust what we're seeing at this point

Does it mean several inches? Not sure, how much merit this will have with what we've been seeing with other models

Things do suck. Trust me .. even us " POSITIVE POSSE PEOPLE " get frustrated. But, things will change. It only takes that one storm to turn this Shyte of a pattern around. With all the model mayhem and dis-functional crystal balls.... There's no way to know when. But at least there is a glimmer of hope as we head into January and February. There will be opportunities. Chin up!!

Watch it be real good for Connecticut. I'll be in Canada from Friday and coming back Monday. Am I going to miss two good storms? LOL
