  1. There is a big push down the Hudson Valley. Albany is already 28/25 but it's quite a bit milder in S VT at a higher latitude. Even the global models have picked up on this... pretty impressive.
  2. Tomorrow afternoon is looking sort of gnarly. NAM nest is upper 20s by 18z for N CT with an additional 0.25" of liquid between 18z and 00z. Seems like a pretty nasty glaze/pingers. A lot of the morning drive we may rot around 33F.
  3. The cold push is looking less and less impressive around here tomorrow morning. Seems like we sort of rot at 32/33F for a while. Definitely not a flash freeze look.
  4. Hate to see it. 32F at BDL with 50F and snow eating fog at KTOL by 8z?
  5. All the models (even the globals) really like the Hudson River drain and into W CT too.
  6. I've noticed over the past couple years some of the HREF members tend to be a bit too cold at 2m and can over-do the low level drain down the valleys here in CT. But it is definitely interesting seeing the 12z HREF mean solidly below freezing in Hartford at 12z while HRRR/3km NAM (which are both HREF members) much slower. Shows you how frigid those other members are. I'm hoping by later today we have a better sense of where that weak wave forms to our southwest and where the front sets up.
  7. It's also so weird to see the GFS now colder than other models at 2m for a winter storm. For so long we were used to just tossing its furnace solutions.
  8. Ugh - feel better. I slipped on ice on the Cape a couples weekends ago and sprained my ankle really badly. Blah.
  9. HRRR is close to a straight rainer south of the Pike lol
  10. Kevin gets 50F for his morning run on the HRRR.
  11. Yeah obviously there are some storms where there will be a clear "winner"... but in general I think the differences are overplayed and taking a blend is a pretty good approach more often than not.
  12. The GFS also had 20" of snow for some of us 2 days ago. It hasn't been perfect either. The GFS/Euro debate is sort of funny now that the GFS has improved some and the Euro has done some weird things of late. Seems like in almost all of these cases a blend between the two (even 50/50) with a nod to the mesoscale models when appropriate is a really good way to go.
  13. Still has more of a "fropa" look than it did on some of those earlier runs though. It is interesting to see the high res/mesoscale models all over the place. Seems like the front placement and where (if?) we get a wave along it will be key.
  14. Yeah - definitely a warmer solution overnight in the low levels too. A much slower cold push outside of the GFS. Really would like so see some of the hires modeling get a bit colder sooner today.
  15. Yeah that's glaze but it does transition to pingers a few hours later.
  16. That seems way overdone to me based on the soundings.
