Old Forge is in Herkimer County
-
0Z Euro is a lot colder than that.
-
The point and click for this area has temperatures in the mid 20s on Saturday while the 2M GFS forecast for Saturday has temperatures barely making it out of the single digits.
-
They’ve suddenly become my favorite models, lol.
-
0Z GFS has Syracuse changing to snow at 6Z Friday.
-
Those are H925 temps? Obviously an inversion here as I’m sitting at 27 at the surface while it looks like about 35 at 925.
-
While we complain about our lack of winter weather these are high temperatures today across Europe. Many temperatures above 80 F.
-
Are you talking about the 966 mb low in the Gulf of Maine? It’s nothing more than a fantasy at this range.
-
The devil is in the details as they say (whoever they are). We are going to see 2 systems and we’re going to see almost every form of precipitation there is. What remains to be seen is the timing of the changeovers and where the back edge of the heavier precipitation from the second system sets up. Anyways it should be interesting.
-
This system never closes off at any level now and is basically a wave along the front. It zips from northern Virginia to exiting Maine in 12 hours.
-
I think it’s going to come down to how wound up this system gets. A wound up deeper storm will throw heavier snow back our way. A weaker wave will keep precipitation closer to the coast. The 12Z GFS has a 979 mb low over the Berkshires while 18Z has a strung out 980 something system over the coast.
-
You picked the hour where even the operational GFS has mixing almost into CNY. It’s hour 120 where the fun and games begin. What does the GEFS show then?
-
Maybe I will get to use my new snowblower!
-
Syracuse didn’t have any nights below zero in January. There were 6 nights with lows in the single digits with the lowest being 4 on the 21st.
-
It just confirms what we already knew. Where would we have been if we didn’t have a few nighttime lows in the single numbers?
-
Same here although with the lack of any replenishment there are thin spots starting to show.
-
And at least it’s something to watch with some potential.
-
Was going to get the 928 but the guy sold me on a 1028. I traded in a 1994 Cub Cadet that he called a rust bucket. I saw a review of the 928 on YouTube where the guy chewed right through a 22 inch snowfall and was throwing it 50 feet on his neighbor’s shed.
-
I’m not sure how they get from the maps above which basically cover the first half of the month to this outlook for the entire month. We would need to have a much below normal second half of the month.
-
PaulyFromPlattsburgh should be happy with that snowfall map. I just bought a nice sized Toro snowblower so that means winter is over. I would love to give it a workout in 12+ inches.
-
Iguanas are an invasive species in Florida. People who bought iguanas as pets then decided they didn’t want them have released them in the wild and they have proliferated. It’s similar to the boa constrictors that are overrunning the Everglades as an invasive species.
-
I saw that last week and sent a heads up (pun intended) to my sister who’s spending the month in Punta Gorda.
-
You have iguanas in Altmar, lol?

The August 21, 2017 Great American Eclipse
CNY_WX replied to ice1972's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
Conditions were absolutely perfect just south of Bowling Green. Just a few thin cirrus that did absolutely nothing to impede viewing. That was the fastest 1 minute 50 seconds in my life. What an amazing sight with a black disk where the sun should be surrounded by the wispy filaments of the corona. Off to the right Venus shone brightly in the middle of the day! A flock of birds swooped overhead as if heading for their nightly roost. I can't wait until 2024 when totality will pass right over my house. -
The August 21, 2017 Great American Eclipse

My wife and I are flying from Syracuse to Louisville tomorrow then driving to Bowling Green where I've had a hotel room reserved since last September. My plan for eclipse day is to drive the 20 miles south to Franklin, KY where totality lasts 2 minutes 25 sec. Worst case scenario if traffic is a nightmare is to stay at the hotel where totality is 1:15. If I can make it just 9 miles south it increases to 1:45.
