Just caught up on all the posts….about 180 of them when I checked in about 9:00(always a great sign).  So, if this pans out/gets up here for us, are we looking at more of a Sunday afternoon start time now? 

From what I saw earlier, it was looking like approximately 5 pm in CT

Dangerous game to extrapolate Nam but it looked good lol.

I'm  more curious to see what the TPV looks like tomorrow. See if it shows any more signs of the sort of split that was shown earlier

Not in this case, it actually matches the euro at 84 hours pretty damn close at 500

Yes, but it's still way out of its useful range. I mean,  good to see... but use others first

That’s evident increase lock step each run

Yup, let's keep that up... to a point. The PV sort of splitting is telling to my barely trained eyes.  Hopefully that's legit

CoastalWx applying "English" to TICK the weekend storm N!?  UKMET does so and GDPS is tryin'.  GFS and ECMWF say no, but a "MIDLO" blockbuster for the Mid-Atlc.

 

This is quite interesting. There is literally nothing at 500, at least I can't find anywhere close to the sfc low.  When it is just off Delmarva, the flow close and over it is actually a bit anticyclonic!  The trough/vort is way W in MKE-DSM area.  I don't think that vort here is driving it.

 

It's a classic Miller A "bottom-up" system.  Strong from sfc-850, but MEH above that.  The Feb 11, 1983 blockbuster was like this.  CoastalWx LUVs this one b/c it was fcst NOT to hit SNE, and a big surprise.  South Weymouth NAS had TS+ and BDL SNOINCR 5.  Also SNOINCR 5 at ABE and LGA had TS+. New all-time 24 hour snowfall records were set at PHL, CXY, and ABE.  Max amount of 35" at Glengary WV.

This event was not a deep sfc low, about 994 mb at its closest approach to SNE, and the weekend storm looks similar.  Also, like Feb 11, 1983, a very cold Arctic air mass was in place over the NEUS, and suppression of the storm track was a big fcst issue!

 

I remember that storm well. A couple local mets were adamant that there was no way it would hit. I remember staying up and sneaking a peak at the 11 pm news. Hilton on channel 3 called the high to the north "the rock of Gibraltar" and would miss. What a great surprise the next day

Iphone weather app says 12-15” for next Sunday. Can always adjust up if needed. 

Yeah my husband just send me a screen shot from the Iphone weather app, 15 to 19 inches for next Sunday in Westfield... outcome TBD lol

Considering the radar last night,  surprised to wake up to 2.5 inches,  and about 3 in Simsbury 

Barely snowing here. Just a dusting this evening. Looking at the radar, not really expecting much at this point

There is

4.5 inches total in Westfield. Nice mashed potatoes consistency 

We're over 3 inches here now

1.5" from the first round in Westfield this morning. Snow has just started back up, hopefully the dry slot is moving out

4-6” in all of sne.  All hail AI

If the AI actually pulls this out of its ass, all of us AI skeptics owe you several high end cocktails at a GTG. And none of that IPA crap either

I messaged my town's DPW about fixing some lifted up slabs of our road... they said they might get around to it... getting ready for Saturday...lol

The state plow guys are masters at dropping the blades for fantasy snow on RT 20! They went though with the blade down a couple nights back when they were laying treatment. We only had like 3 flakes, and they were slop
