As a homeowner the last 3 winters, rather than grading a winter on the amount of snow received, a better measure I'm finding is the number of times I have to clear the driveway. I have not used the snow blower once this year and have shoveled three times. Regardless of what the microclimate in NE CT is experiencing, this winter has been.....boring. The most exciting thing so far was the two freezing rain events where I think I saw ~0.20" ZR combined. I'm giving it another 2 weeks. If we got nothing into early February, at that point, just give me Napril.

Excellent. Let's do this. 2-3' to end January followed by

GFS looks like January 2018 just shifted a little west.

If it's not going to snow, can it at least be like yesterday with temps in the 40s. Ain't nobody got time for sunny 10F days. Move to the Dakotas if that's what you want.

Better make it a GFS type upgrade. Not a ECMWF one.

No thanks on the dry arctic cold. Not looking forward to that gas bill.

Can I still expect 1-2 flurries here?

Nashua: January 2015 Brockton: December 2005 Would have been cool: January 2005 on the Cape.

5 ppd everyone!

The latitude of the vort as it is exiting the east coast is fine. Wouldn't be a biggie, but could work. However, the orientation is all wrong. It's positively tilted which is why the surface reflection is just north of Bermuda.

Just pushed the slush around and moved the melting glacier at end of driveway. It's kind of hot out.

Pattern is certainly active. I see storm chances on 22, 24, 26 and 30. Any of them going to work?

Touche.

Blame New York…they’ve blocked the last handful of pipeline projects into New England. Endless supply of gas just down the road, but can’t get it here because New York is in the way.

Well I guess the modeling was correct. I had a few flurries earlier but that's about it.

For my backyard I’m expecting 3” of slop, 0.5” of rain, then drizzle & fog.

I know. And I'm commenting on the fact that for the last storm, the models chased convection/mesolows, but in reality the system didn't and ended up further northwest.

So you're saying its going to track further west than modeled once it doesn't chase the offshore mesolows?

You people need to spend less time on the Miller A v B debate. A storm is a storm and this one wants to track over our heads.

Taking the NAM verbatim, but from this image your telling me the precip wall stops at I95? The bigger issue might just be the surface dew points and it falling out as virga. Eh maybe not, its not that dry.

The 00z Euro op verbatim is really a useless event. 2-3" of snow followed by 0.5" of rain. All in about 6-8 hours. If you wake up to 2" of snow and its washed away by noon, did it even happen?

Starting to think we would all benefit from being 5 posted during the winter. lol

Our Grinch storm showed up 3 weeks late it seems.

Dude...where have you been for the last 2+ years?

At H500, hour 54, it nearly closes off south of Long Island and then at hour 57 its wide open again. If we could get it to close completely at 57 then I think more than just P-Town would be in the game.
