Damage In Tolland

Pretty big changes on the 12z Euro for this weekend....we never warm sector...and it could get interesting on the back end. Out to 108, so we'll see what the next few panels bring.

What’s causing the changes today on the modeling? Anything Atlantic related?

Looks like a lot of meteorologists are on board for a big  patern change at the end of this month.

Today? Cool. New pattern tomorrow!

Lol...its barely a ULL...looks like it needs to eat a few cheeseburgers and fatten up. But I think most winter enthusiasts would take an inch or two if we could get it at the end so we didn't have to look at bare ground or patches.

 

Interestingly, the Ukie doesn't even look like it warm sectors us...ever....can't see 108 hours which is annoying, but nothing about those two panels looks very warm

 

 

I just don’t like not seeing a cold high up there. That’s missing

This is kind of what you want to look for....GGEM has some pretty good energy going underneath SNE which is why it tries to throw some light snow behind as it exits

 

 

ULL under SNE. I’m all in and emotionally invested 

How in the sam hell are people drinking already? It’s not even noon . Pace yourselves. Long way to go to midnite 

Did any models at all show convection with so much lightning ?

Dandy to Dryslot will end up with a net gain out of this next one. Hunch and ORH keep their pack wedged in until fropa. You know exactly how these play out

Not Tolland, the hills on 74 in Wilmington Just east of the RT 32 Intersection.

He’s talking about exit 67-69 in Tolland as you climb into the hills on 84. The area is known as the Bermuda Triangle due to all the accidents and deaths .

I have driven both routes and those first 2 hills on 74 are fairly steep and would pretty much be white knuckle driving in sleet or snow! 

The magical Tolland hills. You were in the Bermuda Triangle. It’s a unique microclimate

Are we cooked for snow this weekend? Potentially another icer.

That starts as ice and then rains to Maines Even ski country . No cold high

To be fair I can’t ride tilt-a-whirl anymore. It’s too much for me. Maybe I could handle that though.

I really hate punting months when it hasn’t even began yet. Granted it looks meh for the first third. It may not be epic, but New England can find a lot of ways to snow in Jan. 

Where you are sure. You guys in far NNE are fine. You wont see grass until Morch . Sne looks bad, NYC even worse

How is it over ? LoL

January. The writing has been on the wall for sometime . I love snow as much as you , but looking at the pattern , I’m also realistic. I can see how Scooters snow could happen around the 7th. But before and after that , looks awful. And if it looks awful here, NYC would be worse. I’m not punting the month, but I’m setting uber low expectations so I’m not disappointed 

Missed this last night. Insane

1” of non snow . 
19.3” YTD

Over

So you're not going to count that in your seasonal snow total are you if it's not snow?

About the same here but there was also about 0.1" earlier that melted so 1.1" on the day for me.

I’ll count it as a total, but I’d never call sleet or hail snow. They really should have a seperate Sleet seasonal tally to differentiate as with hail in a summer storm

How much? 1”?

Yeah pretty much all sleet and hail so not snow .  At least it’s white. Keep getting bouts of heavy sleet moving thru

Nice to hear the plows out after a few week hiatus

In all fairness to @Damage In Tolland in terms of sensible winter wx, I feel like anywhere W of Gardner and N of RT 2 is Central New England. 

Yeah no one considers Greenfield or Hubbardston SNE. Climate is certainly CNE

Surprised it’s light snow here 31.3

Should be sleet much of the night SNE based on depth of cold layer. As it lightens if you’re  under 32 it’ll be zr . Heavier echoes will be sleet

At least the ground is white, right? 

Better than nothing . A white NYE

Just now, CoastalWx said:

Like the first two weeks of this month

At least we had a good 18 days and a semi white Xmas. Granted after the 19th was boring until today . Still .. a wild month interceded by 9 boring days . AN snow, severe storms with hail, ice, snow, 2 ice storms in places. NB

If it does snow on the 7th it’ll be one of those deals that you’re already dreading the torch and melting that comes 2 days after 

A good 3/4” to 1” of sleet /hail
