Yeah the trough looks putrid at 120h. Looks worse than all the other guidance....hopefully it's just uncle being uncle with it's usual crazy swings....last night it was raining out to 495....now its giving James a jackpot.
BTW, the GFS shows you how it's done with the -NAO when the PAC starts going to crap....keeps the threats coming one after the other. That's hopefully how it goes instead of the Grinch showing up on time. Hopefully we can beat his ass back into his cave with the NAO block.
Actually making a pretty strong push at 126...that's a pretty far west vort, so I think at the end of the day, we're gonna be glad there is a block there....regardless of this specific run's outcome.
Man, that is ridiculous in SE Canada on the 12z GFS....hope it doesn't get crushed. Southern stream is more potent this run too, so maybe opposing forces there.
That was still a great storm at least here. Had about 13 inches and then some sleet/freezing drizzle. The WCB in that was pretty awesome.
Obviously it would have been nice to get the 87 inches that fell in Stowe, but I’d sign on the dotted like for another one right now if offered.
Yeah if it actually happened and ORH got like a foot, they’d be pretty high on the historical list through Dec 17. Might only trail 1992 if that happened.
Of course, 2019 was at like 25” by that point and that went to shit. Lol.
Kind of a bummer that NNE won’t get much snow out of this (CAD region of W Maine might see a little) ...I was thinking that they probably would once it started trending but then it kind of stalled and trended a slight bit back NW.
At least the sfc wedge is happening so very little snowpack loss up there. 4 days ago it was a 55F cutter.
GFS will come in good again. Prob not HECS this time but that look is just classic. Nice to have longwave features in place because it provides more wiggle room.
This is a miller B setup, so you'd sell big snows for MD, even with the -NAO. Doesn't mean it can't happen (see 2/9/10), but it takes some pretty anomalous features to slam that far south with a Miller B and whiff your NH area.
