HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 It can be great. Perhaps it taints with sleet for some, but they can be long duration fun events. What I like, is the 1050+ high ridging in from the west. and often come in like a wall of white. some of my favorite types of storms for W. New England.

dryslot Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 We said that last winter for us while the M.A. was being torn a new one. Bob, You guys still did fairly well last winter didn't you? Not the jackpot, But what did you end up with for a seasonal total? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Organizing Low Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 its been snowing lightly here for the past 4 days its not amounting to more than inch or so daily but its ok mood snow, thats the consolation this yr at least it is winter and there are flakes in the air every other day it seems i dont even know why its snowing lol, im guessing its due to ongoing WAA over the ridiculous cold we had previously, we are now up to a balmy 25F...maybe now being enhance by some sheared out clipper energy.

MaineJayhawk Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 His location thru me off, I see it is CT but he is talking about NNE missing out on snow until i see he is in VT.... I was wondering why you replied you wouldn't be surprised. Not like you to Eeyore at D6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Scott, I am quite content with what we have here really for snopack, IF we had no snow then i would be crowing, We have a decent snowpack and we are retaining it, Trails have been great here for riding, If we get more thats all the better, If not, As long as it stays cold we should be all set.... Yeah you guys aren't doing bad at all. I'm just saying when you have a big trough in the sw like that, it should perk up the NNE snow weenies.

Normal and that was kills me about perceptions, always compared to the other guy. NNE is at normal too, getting screwed,LOL, last year was NNE getting screwed. March will be EPIC in NNE lock that up.

ctsnowstorm628 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I want to see how the confluence over NNE and the amplification/downstream ridging with the southern stream s/w trends with time. As for snow...aren't you at LSC? LSC is in an awful snow shadow so most events will suck for you. Hope you enjoyed the -30s though. Correct lol we do ok actually.

dryslot Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I think I was right at my season average. 38-40" Thats already in the rearview mirror and you could possibly double that if things continue to work out the way they have down your way, My buddy lives in wrentham, But he is always up here in maine because he can't do any riding in his area but he says you guys snowpack is incredible..

Logan11 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Nuisance very light snow in Kingston, NY where I am today. Nothing sticking on the pavement so it must be close to 32. The ADP building off 91..Poquonock Avenue exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowMan Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I know it's early and will likely get crucified for asking, but any thoughts on the amount of potential snowfall next week?

Logan11 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 49" here (my home) for the season despite being fringed by every event this season and zero from this last event. Still...if we finally get a decent storm track at some point in February or March it can easily go above the normal of 80 inches. I think I was right at my season average. 38-40" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJHUB Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 3 GFS runs in a row with SNE in 6+ lets see if that continues, clippers with their cold air help us greatly i would assume keeping the 2/2 storm cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NNE is at normal too, getting screwed,LOL, last year was NNE getting screwed. March will be EPIC in NNE lock that up. All true, until one gets to "NE NNE". CAR is 22" below avg for this point in the season, has only 7" on the ground, and is still +5F for Jan despite the recent cold wx. Vim Toot's description of conditions in potatoland, on the NNE thread, is classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Be prepared to see the GFS have that low off NC and OTS soon.... We are almost up to the GFS "lose the storm" 2 to 3 day period. 3 GFS runs in a row with SNE in 6+ lets see if that continues, clippers with their cold air help us greatly i would assume keeping the 2/2 storm cold.

Logan11 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 My problem is that this may be a screwed east or screwed west kind of winter. This could whiff out to sea again or it could cut so much thaty ENY still gets a mess. So I'm unclear on whether I should root for the models with the cutter tracks at this point.
