I'm not sure the synoptic setup can look any better for the interior of SNE...even the valleys like BDL.

Will, what type of storm do you think this will be in terms of historical? Like once in a lifetime?

Step back for a minute folks. Its snowing. I have a freaking inch of snow on my grass. I'm tracking a freaking monster noreaster. Its flipping October 27. Are you kidding me????

I can't help not to ask to be lifted from the 5/day. I just want to be part of this experience.

Also, I posted this to scott the other night, but one of the top 5 outage moments for northeast utilities was a snowstorm in November of 1986.... http://www.nu.com/media/stormkit/compare.pdf

implied taint how far west on the SREFS?

Well it would be a RASN mix going to snow at some point. There is almost no question it would start as at least a mix..if not straight rain for a little while along the coast. That's just how it is. But, the track would result in it going rather quickly to snow, or perhaps a cold rain then flipping in the final few hours...if the track gets close.

Yes, for October, this is once in a lifetime on average. If many interior spots do see 8-12" of snow, that's never happened in over 100 years of records at a lot of sites. But rare storms can happen in just a few years...just look at NW NJ...they had never seen an Oct 2008 before and now they'll see it again just 3 years later. :lol:

We still have to get it verify, but its looking like a 1 in 100 year storm right now.

That would be .25 to .5 inches in Ithaca; that would be 2.5 to 5 inches because of the cold temparatures.
