cpickett79 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Lazy, SOB's. I think there is a growing opportunity from a met point of view that people are 1. used to snow 2. sick of snow that allows you to be bullish on snow....and have the luxury of saying at 6pm....."well guess what guys" you know all that snow your sick of....latest indications are that we wont' have to be so concerned about that this weekend.....so how's that for good news" and just like that .......people are happy ......(since it's still snow in ski-land) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Is it just me or is this a horrible map? 4-6 to southern CT...but only 2-4 in Maine? lol... Will do you think we pull a few inches at the end? Or maybe you will and I wont? Shift if 100 miles NNE I would say I think that is from this morning (last night?) Looking forward to an exciting late afternoon of some ice, sleet and an inch of mashed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Torchey Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I think models tick colder tonight into tomorrow morning, not for my area, but kev will and north and west from there, in my opinion its a mostly snow event for them, time will tell.

Ginx snewx Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 agree...people need to be careful what they wish for around here. A light-mod rain even tomorrow isn't going to do much. For one its not going to be 50...so melting will be slow and not cause any major flooding problems other than some ponding on the roads where storm drains are clogged. Plus, the added weight to the roofs is going to be the same as if you had the same about of QPF fall as snow (a fact some people can't seem to get through their head). Snow tomorrow wouldn't lessen the roof problems and only lead to a greater flood threat in the long-term. The only thing that's gonna help roofs is if A) people get on their roofs and get them cleared or we get a prolonged dry spell. The rain vs ice vs snow argument when talking about roof concerns is really pointless. Not really watch the rain pour off your house tomorrow as the temp climbs to 35 , melting is also occurring, not all is absorbed in the pack, unless you have a flat roof with no pitch tomorrow will help reduce the water content on your roof.

Tropopause_Fold Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 SREFs definitely have an icing concern for the interior...particularly N of the pike. it'll be interesting to see what kind of area it ends up favoring. whether its the elevated valleys or the actual low spots. would seem at first glance maybe it is more of a "cold air trapped" kind of ice situation?

Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 LOL. It's finally coming around. Has surface temps 35-40 over a lot of SNE. 50 might even touch parts of the Cape. Yaba daba do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 lol...they cancelled all events at the high school tommorow becasue of "6-9 inches of snow". I dont know where they got that from? Multiplied the forecast by 1.5? hahaha the only place I ever heard of 6-9" from this storm was in Melissa Mack's WBZ blog yesterday. As of this morning, my snowfall amount ‘guess-timates’ are 6-9″ for Worcester/Middlesex county…3-6″ just south of the Pike including Norfolk County…1-3″ northern Plymouth and Bristol counties…little to no accumulation for Cape/Islands.
