34.7 degrees and so far very underwhelming. Snow isn't sticking to anything but the snowpack itself. And it looks like I'm about to enter a big ole' hole on the radar. Even the stratus is sad. -
The Euro, UKMET, and ICON have all put local jackpots over my head. Lets go Europeans?
-
Wow, right at the same time. Flurries have commenced here - I've been watching outside like a hawk.
-
33.8 and nothing here yet in Bradford. In the meantime, please enjoy this photo I took on a walk earlier of a cemetery, unfinished barn, and Little Sunapee hiding in the clouds.
-
Ew gross, was hoping I'd never have to look at METAR stuff ever again.
-
At least you can explain that away with an actual scientific reason.
-
Haha, it took me such a long time to line up the yard stick with the speed square so that it would be perfectly parallel to the sign in the photo. People were watching me like, "what the hell is this guy doing?"

32.0 degrees here this morning. Big contrast in ice cover from Friday evening's event on higher terrain. Trees right outside my back deck at 890ft are ice free. The hillside in the background is covered in ice at just over 2000ft. Hoping for a good event here. To improve snow ratios, I plan on running around outside with a flyswatter in order to carefully caress each snowflake and set it down with the gentlest of touch.

00z Euro is fairly anemic, especially to the east (in terms of snow). Really only favors the Berkshires and the southern Greens.

Well, I certainly appreciate what you guys do. I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it is to sit down to develop some sort of model that attempts to deterministically predict what is going to happen in the atmosphere of an extremely dynamic planet. The number of moving parts boggles the mind. You guys get way too little love. I'm even guilty of it - making fun of weather models that took many people much smarter than I to develop, test, and run. Thanks again!
-
Out of curiosity, are these models developed by NWS or NCEP or whatever government guys, or is there a fair amount of contractor support?
-
Can't guarantee people won't be wading into the ocean come Monday, but I can assure you that the UKMET will not be correct.
-
UKMET big improvement for the CNE crowd. Glad to have that powerhouse on our side.
-
Appreciate someone chiming in with an actual answer, thanks!
-
It's in the works.
-
00z GFS is a slight improvement from the 18z for most people, but nothing really that'll blow your hair back.
-
Sounds like an experimental convection allowing model that is currently being trialed/tested. Presumably it exists because they are attempting to build better models for the future.
-
That is quite the little bastard of a valley there.
-
Whoa, now don't sell it too short. the 18z spat out 4" at my location. The 00z? 5". Incredibly thrilling stuff.
-
Very easy, pick whichever one gives you more snow.
-
FWIW, the 00z ICON looks nearly identical to the 18z.
-
Hopefully the 00z's will continue a trend of juicing up, cause the 18z suite was parched.
-
Was highlighting the ridiculous output of the HRRR on the south coast of CT. Here's us FFIW. Would take zero stock in it.
-
Ok, I had to stop watching at hour 40. Cause what in the hell is this? 00z HRRR. This shit is the dreams of a computer.
-
Ok, while it's not like I really have any faith in the HRRR in the first place, what it's trying to do right now is nonsense.
