So there's hope that will still see some good events past next weekend through the second half of February? Not that I'm complaining ( And also not to put the horse before the cart ), we definitely have some great opportunities between now and next Friday which is only the 14th....
This was a great storm in 78. I was in third grade, my older brother was in fourth grade and my younger brother was in first grade. I remember we lived in lower Westchester county and the three of us were building tunnels into the street because there were no cars or anything around with all the snow. It was a great memory
I have to laugh. Gil on wtnh saying snow to freezing rain Saturday night ending Sunday morning. Where the met on wvit channel 4 saying mostly snow. He's throwing out a possibility of 5 to 9 inches? It's just funny how they're both so different in what they're saying. One used the Euro when he was going over his blog, while the other used the GFS. Probably will be a blend of the two. I just love getting the take on different Met's forecasts. And they're different!!
Yeah they're saying now for most of inland Connecticut now that they're looking at maybe 5 to 9 in for Saturday night into Sunday morning. The office said it looks like it would stay mostly snow even at the shoreline with a little mix in the beginning.
Holy Shite!!! I hate to be the one to say this, but imagine the meltdowns if this all fell apart ...lolol.
Hey..... Coming from me, Mr. Sunshine, is some funny stuff!!
But, I do love what I see.
So just going back to what the models were saying for February. About a week and a half, 2 weeks ago, was it the Euro that was saying we were going to get a warm-up in the East and the GFS was saying we were going to stay colder and stormier? The reason I ask is it seems like the Euro ( even with the storms happening in the next several days ) has come around to the GFS. I'm also thinking that in the longer range it also had come around to the GFS in terms of not having the ridge into the East. Am I correct to assume this? So much going on.... Can't keep things straight
I don't think there's any lakes there as I believe the city's right on the ocean. I think this is more enhancement from the sea than it is from a lake, but I could be mistaken. I'm somewhat familiar with that area and landscape... I just don't recollect any big lakes close to that City
Serious question. Why do do most of the METs ( at least wfsb and wvit ) always seem to use the Euro maps. They don't seem to put any Credence on the GFS. I noticed that's pretty much what they show when they show the storms coming in. I guess they still feel that the euro is the stronger and more reliable model. Just wondering everyone's thoughts?
As an absolute monster. My question is what does it look like 24 hours before and where was it heading as far as precipitation types for the Northeast?
How about 2.7 in here. The other thing I wanted to mention is our temperatures. We're about 22°. Yesterday evening we were forecasted to be around 30 by 8:00 a.m.. so a bit colder than they originally said.
