  1. That's quite a mickey mouse pattern depicted on the models...
  2. Patience is the key here. The CFS weeklies and Euro weeklies all showed a relaxation after New Year's with a change back to a colder pattern afterwards. The Euro weekly nailed the cold temps in Dec and this upcoming warm up back in early Dec. Let's enjoy a little bit of a thaw and see what comes on the other side of it. The weeklies show another several weeks of favorable conditions are incoming after it. I don't always have faith in the long term "climate" models but their 500mb depictions since December have been in the ballpark.
  3. I believe the upcoming pattern could be characterized as a “January Thaw”. Not necessarily a bad sign for the rest of winter if we have one. The disappointment is amplified by the fact that we haven’t cashed din as much as we would like with the colder pattern in place, but it’s not unusual for a relaxation in the pattern to move in during January.
  4. Had to measure in a few spots due to the wind blowing things around but 2” here, about a 1/2” in the last band. A little bit of a snow hole here during the first part of the storm.
  5. Squall incoming. Will probably get as much out of this as the rest of the storm. Radar showed lots of weird micro-subsidence over my neck of the woods for most of the duration overnight. Eyeballed less than an inch will see how well the squall performs.
  6. It's not even January yet and this thread is: dumpster-fire-gif-14.mp4
  7. https://www.youtube.com/@riretroweather/streams I grabbed the project linked to by @dendrite and run a 24x7 stream on YouTube for Bristol as the location from an old junky computer...
  8. Always notable when New Bedford is 10 degrees colder than Newport... Calm wind means extra cold this evening...
  9. Forecast: Verification: Grade B+ Biggest miss was Cape Ann area, where OES never materialized. Using a blend of the 3K NAM and HRRR as a smart idea, as HRRR was a little low for eastern areas and the 3K NAM was a little high. Forecast was accurate but would like to make a map farther out, maybe 24 hours, for the next one, as more of a challenge. This one was issued 3 hours before start time in CT...
