  1. Yeah I’m noticing how cold it’s coming in for Philly
  2. I’ve been armchair hobbying weather at various intervals and when I was a kid it was consistent and obsessive. But tonight is my schooling lesson and first exposure to the notion that amounts could really vary like that without, for example, rain shadowing or whatnot. “Subsidence” takes on a whole new meaning to me tonight. I didn’t know everyone got screwed when we got crushed in 2010. Just wow!
  3. I looked back on the Dec 2010 storm after Ice1972 didn’t like it... and the snow map I found was... erratic. I was in Coventry, CT.... I swear we got feet. At LEAST 20 inches. But this map shows bulk of CT with random numbers many under 6 inches... with lots of “dots and bubbles”
  4. This all looks great. But I’m not sure it will be a Christmas 2010 in CT just yet
  5. Oh ya I remember living in Woonsocket in early 2004. It was a decent winter in SNE, but at least a few snows missed us to the south, hitting Warwick and Westerly
  6. I looked it up at least it did snow in all of CT and only extreme SE got screwed. It looks like it was 7-9 inches for JC-CT, me and Tolland.
  7. What exactly does that translate to (for us newbies). A rain snow line from Norwich to Providence to Boston? When I look at past classics, or common events, that rain/snow line has wildly varying different degree of tilt slicing thought coastal plains, but it’s there nevertheless
  8. What’s this deal with the snow line completely and perfectly contouring itself over the coast proper?
  9. Yeah not game over but way too close for comfort. If we get a 25 mile tick SE on the most adversarial models and lock it in, we are good
  10. Forgive my frivolous comment. But I sit here and I dream.... Canadian and Ukie stay steadfast, and suddenly NAM and GFS dive 45 miles southeast on their 18z runs. Hopes. Dreams. I finally take a shower.
  11. Ya GFS emphasizes what one poster said about western CT being better off, but eastern CT isn’t exactly screwed either.
  12. If ya wanna talk about embarrassment I’ll tell ya all about it
  13. What have I done. What have I done. What have I done to deserve this.
  14. I’m biting my nails over the 12z GFS which rolls out next. Odds are, it will look more favorable than the NAM, tho the latter can’t be ignored
  15. I’ve mentioned my paranoia about major north and west trending on storms as have a few others.... but this surprises me because in my memory I feel like the dangerous northwest ticking toward rain territory usually happened about 48-72 hours prior to the event.... not under 48 hours. Like, “we should have known about this last night” It looks “okay” for me here but if it did this now, what’s next for 18z etc etc!
  16. When I saw lots of 06 z runs pull up the dividing line between magenta and purple on kuch snowfall to about a north haven- Ledyard- Hopkinton line, it was kinda creepy.
  17. The trend isn’t surprising to me! At Willi, I’m even a bit more worried about ptype than suppression. It’s not predicted by models yet, but that ocean.... I know I’m being paranoid story of our life
  18. Hahaha If We are talking in the context of locking in a run like that, 6 inches would mean something went horribly wrong!
  19. No we are in almost the best location, I think the worst case is a solid 5 inches no matter what goes wrong or different
  20. And the media has passed the point of no return in announcing what’s supposed to be ahead
  21. The run smacks of seeing something gfs always did. And it’s so damn creepy
