That was a tough storm to forecast in Boston. I certainly did not think we would get that much on the coast, but when the euro was bullish on actual CAA from the NE at 925mb...I started to believe the day before. The deep 700-500 RH/VV also was another clue. Certainly a lesson learned on the coast. I will say that some OCMs went down with their ship right up to game time. Rip and reading NAM and GFS.
We have talked about that storm quite a bit. Is pretty much ranked up there with the most awe inspiring storms of all time. Needham was ground zero for that band of TSSN.
Yeah nothing is definite, but if you think about it for return rate, I think the other two examples would go down a lot sooner than a widespread late October 6-24"+ storm. And oh yeah...gave DC-NYC-BOS snow as well.
Certainly not as widespread. We may see a narrow area get a siggy October snow, but the widespread nature of that storm like will not be matched in our lifetime.
That was a strange event. Dropped 7 degrees in 10 minutes and started straight as snow where I was. Very convective with colder air working in from N and NE of all places.
As long as we have troughing near CA you certainly have a shot. Weeklies look like they want to continue that, although the signal weakens week4..but looks pretty good.
No way. I got smoked the 19-20. I had about 3" in that storm there, but the two days prior targeted this area. In fact where I am now probably jackpotted on those days.
