  1. Been tracking this bad boy focused in Vermont ski areas (notably okemo) and wondering your guys thoughts on the western edge. From what I’m seeing after the worst of the East trend has ended it does seem like there may be some decent lift especially early aftn into evening tomorrow but my concern is how the models are handling the western fringe. There is definitely going to be a sharp cutoff on the NW side which right now seems to be worst between southeast Vermont and central mass (going from 0.75 to nearly 2in qpf on the euro). My concern is that precip might be overdone on the western fringe however in looking for some eveidencr of this,  the FGEN maps from for example the RGEM it would support the model output of 0.5-0.75 qpf for most of southern/east central Vermont so maybe my concerns are unwarranted. Thoughts?

  2. Consider what has occurred in Islip, NY in the last six months:

    Tornado just outside Islip in August 2012.

    Hurricane Sandy (albeit not making landfall there) in October 2012.

    Verifiable blizzard conditions in February 2013.

    How many places can you say have had a tornado, hurricane, and a blizzard all in a six month period?

    I'd think never. There are probably just a few locations ON EARTH where this is possible. Northeastern US is obviously one of them . North of a certain point chances decrease greatly of a hurricane strike. South of a certain point blizzards are one in 50 year events (or never occur)
