Damage In Tolland

There’s never been an inversion. The GFS is always lowest in winds. When it shows these eye popping numbers 2-4 days in advance when it’s usually last to catch on, you’d sure better take the gusts up and high . That’s a huge signal. It’s gonna be 62/59. It is going to absolutely rip

We Walt

deterministic guidance continues to trend upward with low level 925 mb jet up to 75-85 kt of wind streaming across CT-RI and eastern MA Thu night into Fri morning. While models do struggle with low level lapse rates on southerly wind events, model time sections indicate 50-60 kt of wind extending downward to below 1 kft! That`s typically a good signal for 50+ kt reaching the surface

This is exactly what they did in that massive Nov event. They have some new mets that don’t understand CT Climo , and frankly don’t pay much attention to CT. It’s very ENE centric. They didn’t even issue wind advisories for that event and we ended up with some of the strongest winds and most outages. However I just read it and it’s Nocera and he’s good. He let ALB and OKX overrule him. It’s coming After collaboration with WFO ALY & OKX will hold off on interior CT given highest threat is RI and Eastern MA as low level jet continues to increase as it advects across those areas. However later shifts may have to expand high wind watch westward into CT.

Pope?

Boom when the ens mean show this. Katy bar the door

When good modeled patterns get pushed back and delayed and delayed and delayed, they never happen. It’s very possible there is no good snowy pattern next week or beyond and the storm last week was it

For those that are meh ing this saying nothings coming.. I feel badly for them Xmas Day. This has all the makings of a big and widespread event as Scooter said this morning

Two possible snow or rain to snow events to track for next week. At least something to look forward to

12z Euro ups the ante

This event favors hilltops , ridges particularly but also places 10-30 miles inland off the water

Just an unreal look. May go down as one of our all time screams .. and on Christmas Day no less

Thinks it’s gonna be rain to thump snow SNE

I meant the ones earlier this AM that Walt discussed

GEFS look favorable for Monday/ Tuesday. Op tossed as usual

Great friends surround us

That is an all timer . Lol

No I knew he was doing that. He’s 50/50 on a snow event .. even to the coast

Small tsunamis from area lakes interrupting Christmas dinners where folks still have power

It’s hard to imagine looking out at this deep snow and winter landscape with snow on all the trees, roofs, massive banks.. all wiped out in a matter of hours. But it’s coming. It’s so disheartening. Replaced with wires, and trees downed , branches on cars etc.

This certainly has a chance to change to snow similar to the one a few Saturdays ago. If it bombs a secondary south of LI under the block. Certainly a chance that happens. Several options on table

Wil, Walt says there’s a chance. I could certainly envision rain changing to a thumping wet snow

Next week’s snow turned to rains to Maine’s overnight. Is there anyway that one can be snow?
