There are several NAM looking members in there. It’s a very long shot but not completely dead north of the Mass border.

It was AOL on dial up all the way. You’ve got mail.

Light snow almost like a frozen mist has at least whitened surfaces again at 1500ft.

You going with the high pressure being well over done and block weaker?

I knew it was coming at some point. While some other models only have advisory snows north of the Pike lol.

I get what you're doing, but this absolute monster high to the N/NE as the "whole set up" screams the opposite of what you say, ha.

How the hell is TAN losing it's wiggle room on that run? lol. You're like smack in the middle of the EURO snow prog.

Modeled jacks over ALB still make me tingle even 15 years after living there, ha. Weird. But man from here to you Dryslot that thing runs into a brick wall.

Awesome! I've always wanted to tele. One of the things I hope to do at some point.

Still a decent amount of time if that thing is a real beast down south. 06z EPS had more members getting NNE involved.

Split that distance and we are talking, ha. There’s just enough completely jacked ECM individual ensembles with like widespread 1”+ NNE to keep an eye on it north of RT 2.

What a set up for the mid-Atlantic and SNE... that shortwave running into a 1036mb high north of Montreal.

It hit me at 18z just how far out the event is... I don’t expect a north trend but not having the system even getting started at the end of the 84 hour model runs is a very long time in model world. The shortwave could be a beast, or it could be a false alarm... the block could be massive or it could be over estimated. There’s a lot of time left in this. The big ones can have great lead time but I’ve personally seen plenty of modeled huge NNE synoptic storms go sideways at this lead time. Makes me think something could change in any direction.

The storm isn’t even in range of the 18z ECM or 18z NAM... there’s a lot of time left for significant changes. Get that progged block to weaken a bit...

That trough axis does look like it would want to amp up. Damn -NAO. I’m sure there’ll be a zonked NAM run over like BOS at some point though lol.

Definitely need a few more ticks north, ha. Still time though.

Need to drop some nukes on that block, so it implodes and let’s this storm take its rightful course to CAR, lol.

As kids we used to boot up at home and be ready to go for the 15 minute drive from Indian Lake to Gore Mountain in the Dacks. Just hop out of the car as kids and go straight to messing around on the J-Bar while the parents got ready. Good plan you’ve got.

20”+ in Mid-Atlantic is a healthy storm for sure. Phin heads down to MD and gets a bigger event than Randolph last week?

I’ll take a photo of a letter we got sent to all town of Stowe from the PD Department later. The gist was it’s all voluntary, they can’t do anything, just be a good human being for your neighbors. Or at least that’s what I got out of it. It was just “follow the guidance” but there’s no penalty.

No way, sounds like urban legend. Fined for what, where and by who? The state specifically says they are not fining, same with the State Police. There are no fines on the books except for business establishments that fail to comply to capacity restrictions or fail to require a state attestation. HOW ARE THE ORDERS BEING ENFORCED? In instances where police officers observe or are made aware of potential violations of Gov. Scott’s orders, law enforcement is encouraged to speak with the proprietor, staff, or group, provide a reminder of the new requirements, and assess voluntary compliance. DPS and the Vermont State Police — the largest law-enforcement agency in the state — continue to recommended to Vermont municipal leaders and law-enforcement executives that enforcement of executive orders be handled primarily through education and voluntary compliance.

Ha what? First family this morning in the shop was from Peachtree, Georgia. Yesterday people were talking about their flight from Fort Lauderdale. I’m definitely getting the Vid at some point. People from all over pouring in. It’s a fight just to get them to wear masks much less follow any other guidance. Personally I can’t imagine doing that but to each their own.

Christmas Day 2002 will never get better for me. 24" storm total in Albany... Christmas morning arrived with grass visible, and then it was snowing 4" per hour during Christmas dinner. It was slow to start and then just absolutely hammered during the late afternoon and evening. Shut down interstates and even local roads were sporting 12+ on them despite decent plowing. Christmas doesn't get better than a Top 10 all-time storm falling on that date.

I already miss it snowing every day, despite some nice sun/cloud/caked white, mountain views today.

Thanks. Not as good as the snowmakers’ photo, ha. What a view they had this morning.
