  1. other way around-the state can use salt/calcium Chloride on state roads. Towns can do as they wish, but Fairfield no longer uses sand
  2. don't worry the rain will wash it away. interesting NYC still uses sand, the state of CT banned it about 10 years ago (local towns can use it if they wish)
  3. north of NYC (let's say 287) will do the best-Euro has those areas with 2-3 inches of snow then sleet and ZR on top. By the time it nudges above 32, the storm is over. Some areas, such as DXR and BDR and HPN could be above 10 inches for seasonal snowfall by then. Arctic cold shot follows.
  4. a fair amount of snow survived today-didn't really clear out until 1-2pm-that helped plus low December sun angle.
  5. fantasy land at day 10. (I'd say that even if it showed the next ice age)
  6. my local reporting Station (BDR) is at close to 7 inches of snow in the last 11 days. So we're already 25% of normal right out of the gate.
  7. 2 inches here with less on roads, kids have a 2 hr delay. Euro did well on this one.
  8. The model truncates after a certain hour-(less resolution)-that's why anything beyond day 7 or so is pure fantasy
  9. for anything more than an inch on the grass/car tops, yeah-hate seeing the Euro never be on board for this one, looks like it will turn out to be right. Too little QPF and with temps in the 50's for 2 days and with marginal temps this won't be much.
  10. Car topper per the latest trends. It'll be near freezing and less than .25 of QPF. Meh.
  11. if there moderate rates that will work-light rates won't just like the last system.
  12. um the trend--models are cutting back slowly but surely. Light to moderate rates won't do it especially after 2 days of rain and temps in the 50's. Could be another win for the Euro which has never been impressed with this system.
  13. we are fairly stormy too which is always good-not only was there no cold in 11-12 there were literally no shortwaves to spawn a storm
  14. agree-we don't hold snowpack well here-give me a bunch of storms and let it melt 2 days later.
  15. not much there-rain ending as snow, ground will be wet, maybe a dusting on colder surfaces if it pans out at all....
  16. verbatim that's low amplitude which might mitigate the warmth a bit-last year was stronger if I'm remembering correctly
  17. That looks horrid for Xmas week (as usual)
  18. JB says the 2nd storm next week will be a cutter b/w 2 cold airmasses....rare to see that kind of post from him
  19. That's a good point. Coastals were fairly rare compared to what we've seen once the AMO went positive.
  20. Very little Atlantic Blocking back then. Similar to what we've seen the past couple of years....so it's cold, warmup rain back to cold...need the block to lock in the cold air and force the storm track south
