SouthCoastMA Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 18z GFS continues that big thump (especially I-90 area and north into SNH) idea. You would get a pretty exciting 6 hours or so before any risk of change. I love those two...just like 0.5-0.75" QPF in 4-6 hours with 0.2"/hr bucket rates at times. Those are always exciting and have some good staying power. I want you to get blasted in the 2/4-2/6 storm. (I'm skiing that weekend) But only if we get the Day 10/11 storm on the benchmark of course. :/ Either way..its NNE's time to shine. Good luck!

Call me crazy, but I'd take a quick 6" in 5 hours with a swfe, over 10" of fluff in 3 days in an oes cj event....while S Weymouth gets like 35", that is down to 13" by the time you can drive down to check it out....because some fat azz sneezed waking out to get the morning paper and sublimated it. Gimme a quick 6"...end as some sleet and rain, call it a day. That's a man's event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, our locales (mine at school) have not been favored since much earlier in the Winter really. Seems all modeling changes that heading into February. Good times ahead. I do fear we might have to deal with a mild storm to get there though. Ensembles look colder than the ops though which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I will take the mash potatoes any day over the high fluff bombs, At least the next system looks to deliver just that, Climo really starts to become a factor here on out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A winter that torches as we have to deal with a rain/snow line we all wish it was colder. A winter that is freezing, we all wish it was warmer so there was a higher liquid equivalent. Just shows you how many variables there are. Everyone that has been cashing in on the south coast and the Cape despises the idea of any of us receiving mashed potatoes. Even people on the east ma coast towards Jerry, Scott cringe when we start to play with a paste bomb. That would mean a nice mild rain for them. The areas that have cashed in shows how historically cold it has been thus far. Snow to GA,TX, LA, MS. Plenty of snow events in between and up to the Cape on the east coast. Cold does mean it can potentially snow but also means it could be well south of where we would like. I wouldn't say by any means that this has been a bad pattern for snowfall in SNE. I just think the events we have gotten have not favored the traditional areas. Small shifts to the pattern going into Feb can keep the cold here, maybe not as extreme, but helps deliver more widespread snowfalls. I think we lax to a pattern that is not as extremely cold but still below normal. That should help shift jackpots into the interior as time goes on. Nice signal post Feb 10 for another arctic blast right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and when i think of all the cold it reminds me of suppression, And that's what has transpired, When that happens here most everyone to the south reaps the rewards, That's why i will take my chances with the temp gradient nearby on these systems, I am usually far enough north that i will cash even in a marginal situations, This season its been some bad luck the last few weeks here, Beforehand, We were off to one of our best starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Jay, this pattern has favored COASTAL sne.....not the region in its entirety. Not a horrible pattern, but not great.

CoastalWx Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Man a lot of crying from inland folks when they don't avg 60" by the end of January. It's the reason why we don't avg 100" a year. Some years are worse than others...and yes that included the interior too. I don't understand some of the angst coming from the eastern MA interior folks. Yes you missed out on one storm that was a fluff bomb for SE MA, but when half the winter still lies ahead...it's not a reason to complain about it. You guys are near or just ahead in the snowfall dept too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm over it and looking ahead, but nothing wrong with having some laughs. You've been a bit more defensive of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
