  1. For sure. At least for my backyard seems like we're going to have a really hard time preventing the torch as the high retreats and wind cranks out of the E/SE. Farther north up toward the Pike I think there's definitely more room.
  2. Euro is really warm in the boundary layer. 2m temps at BDL up to +4c at 12z Monday.
  3. I'm not sure it makes a huge difference south of the Pike... but farther north if you do have a mesolow or some weakness offshore you might be able to hold some boundary layer chill a bit longer.
  4. It's funny how everyone hated the offshore mesolows on the last storm... but is all about them this storm.
  5. The 3-hour increments with rapid boundary layer warming will make the model output for ptype fairly dubious. But yeah, a decent thump of snow before rain.
  6. Barring a wholesale shift offshore... the retreating high and prolonged easterly flow is going to make it challenging to get >6" of snow south of the Pike. Even if you did track this thing over HVN-BOS for many it's heavy snow to heavy rain. I think a reasonable "best case scenario" for the I-84 corridor is like 3-6 or 4-8" followed by heavy rain. If the entire thing gets shunted offshore then we do better but that seems unlikely right now.
  7. Yeah... looks like heavy snow to heavy rain right now. If the antecedent airmass sucked it would be brief snow to rain.
  8. It's a really cold antecedent airmass so even the GFS track is probably a decent burst of +SN before we pour.
  9. Seems like this weekend is a bit of a stretch but man what a tasty pattern D10-D15.
  10. 7.5 in West Hartford melted to 0.50"
  11. Seems like the convection is going to be an issue. A bit disappointing to see the RAP/HRRR and the NAM trends but still looks good for 3-6 in many spots in CT.
  12. I was sort of hyping this afternoon. Definitely hedged high verbally after looking at those model soundings off the GFS/NAM. Hopefully the HRRR is off the mark.
  13. I know. Not really comfortable ditching my 3-6 in Hartford... but a crush/fluff job under that mid level band wouldn't shock me.
  14. Yes... that has me worried for the Hartford area. Could definitely see a 10" jack in that mid level banding given the MAUL and good snow growth.
