that is a lot of sub 1000 lows inside the BM for a week out. Why isn't there more enthusiasm? I guess if it goes out south and there is not cold air then SNE gets nothing and it is too far south for us up here where there is enough cold...
I love that picture. That looks very much like my backwoods, and I just took a long wander. So awesome to have at least just a few inches of snow on the ground for those kinds of walks, and that kind of light.
Some come back as soon as there’s some signs of warmth. I’m not sure I buy that. I’m thinking we got a couple of inches of snow Tuesday night and then a couple of more inches of snow, followed by some mix and rain which solidifies the pack and then I think we get a significant storm Early next week and then we’ll see where we stand in terms of temperatures and snowpack and the pattern.
but I’m not a met so what do I know
In a bad winter for much of central and southern New England last year, we had a great pack in excess of 20 inches and at one point over 30 inches. I like pack, but prefer 6 to 10 inches which is easier to walk in.
And miss all that snow? The walks these days are perfect in the woods. Snow not too deep so I can go everywhere with the dog into the parts of the woods that are not great in the summer and fall. This is pretty freaking awesome weather right now with a moderate snow cover.
I know you are tongue in cheek
I wanna make sure I’m getting the potential progression right. So we have some sort of event Tuesday night and Wednesday that might be a mix with more snow further north, but probably not a heavy event. Then around Friday we have another event. This event might be a little bit warmer with mixing getting quite far north? Then early next week there’s a chance for a significant storm while we temporarily have a good set up?
Yeah probably. Just being 350 feet higher and 10 miles north of Concord often is enough for me to get good snow. But it’s much more fun when everyone else is in it to be honest. I was checking out a cam in Center City Philly today because I remember how much fun it was to walk around the city and it snowstorm. At some point this will break and in a couple years. I’ll be walking around with my kids in snowstorms.
Pretty clear this is a multi year pattern. I wonder what will break it? Appear we’ve still had decent snow. Last year higher than average, but very much on the borderline. This year not too bad but slightly behind. But I’m trying to remember when we had what felt like a cold winter with decent snow that tended to predominate the majority of the season
Hope y’all are enjoying! When I lived in Center City my favorite Snow walk, was straight across the city into Rittenhouse Square and over to the Schuylkill. Rittenhouse looks great in the snow. Enjoy it and hope there’s much more to come.
