Logan11 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Seems to flip us to snow here as we thread the needle....but sometimes these things don't work out as seen last night. LOL It's a an interesting scenario because the big bomb that blows up offshore kind of acts as "quasi-blocking" and forces development at least along the coastal plain as opposed to a phased thing in the lakes. Heck it looks interesting, but I can't waste four days on this..... LOL... the Euro jackpots powderfreak and Jay with like a foot... soaking rain elsewhere.

weathafella Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I'm wondering if that clipper blowing up north of us around NYE can do some work to create a little block for the next impulse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Verbatim it looks like the Euro and GFS imply a sandwich storm here in the Berks (snow-rain-snow), provided BL temps aren't too warm of course. Euro would definitely be better than GFS as it gives us a nice parting shot of heavy snow on the backside for a few hours. Longitude will be more important than latitude this time, although elevation will be critical as well in these warm BL scenarios. However, as of now, I'm favoring a mostly rainer, even here. These southern stream storms have been a total torch this year without a -NAO or -EPO to supply some honest to goodness cold. I won't get excited about this one and then set myself up for a disappointment like last night's disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 The big ole goose egg for December is easily within reach for KBOS. And yes..so far..not one legit snowflake this month.

Logan11 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I remember in late Dec/Jan 05-06 we had a really horrible pattern nationwide, but we pulled off a few decent wet snow events. They were more like something in the Spring, but hey it was snow... So maybe, just maybe something like the ECM can work for us a few times this winter.

Logan11 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 That 3 inches of slop I received two weeks ago looks awfully good right about now.

And this would be their 6th time in recorded history that December had a T or <. 5th time in 15 years lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this would be their 6th time in recorded history that December had a T or <. 5th time in 15 years lol. I was actually going to post this today. BDL has a pretty good chance of leaving December with only a trace of snow. That's only happened 2 other times... '06-'07 and '27-'28. Those winters had 20.5" and 24.0" of snow respectively for the season. Since we already have 12.5" for the season it's likely we won't be that bad... but pretty sobering numbers.

H2Otown_WX Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Doesn't something look wrong with those years????? I guess, I figured maybe it was possible since those were clunkers. Then again, they have no data. Whoops. If I had to guess, 1999 probably had zippo because Will said ORH got a trace I think. Sorry for going so far OT.

I'm going with 15" But, other than that Oct storm, BDL has only 7.2" since 2/2. This season is beginning to feel like the '06-'07 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Models look nice for several chances of synoptic snow over the next 10 days along with a few light meso-scale snows...maybe winter is starting to wake up! We have clipper/arctic fropa/upslope aided snows on Sunday night into Monday... potential snows Tue/Wed time frame... then another clipper/miller b type situation next weekend.
