40/70 Benchmark Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Wouldn't that be 77-78, since he's referencing December '77? I am too old to recall the blizzard of '78 so I shall need a repeat. Yes, it's '77-'78 he's referencing. Dec 1976 was cold and snowy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 year after year after year same old same old. See you Monday when the good JUJU will flow ala Jan 13. Yeah that one was funny. BOS was in single numbers to date and Will proclaimed 54 inches. I thought it was a tad bold but he busted low...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I think the people antsy now will be smiling NYD. Never been in doubt as far as I'm concerned.....funny how you put out an outlook explicitly indicating in no uncertain terms that December will be "tepid" at best, but to be patient because the season will take off around xmas or shortly thereafter, people read it and give you props....ostensibly having read, and comprehended it, yet panic ensues once your December thoughts come to fruition.

40/70 Benchmark Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 There are many parallels to 1977-'78...including, as I mentioned last night, the GL triple phaser, though it came a month later that season. I was torn between 1976-'77 and 1977-'78 heading into this season, but its become pretty clear over the course of the last two weeks which one has emerged as the more viable analog.

jamesnichols89 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 It looks like tomorrow is our last chance at some snow before the end of the year. January 1st looks to spell the moderate period of weather we have had lately and instill within us as snowy and cold pattern. GFS parallel 12z run gets us real cold at the beginning of the month.

512high Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Hi everyone, I just joined, I am not a meteorologist. I enjoy winter weather, in fact we do snowplowing/snow removal in southern New Hampshire. This thread caught my eye, I plowed during the thanksgiving storm I would say 8-10" total, and half my city without power!(thank god for backup generator...wife pulled off a good thanksgiving meal!) I'm just wondering after the "rain" scheduled for Christmas eve, are most of you "pretty" sure the cold and snow will return? I know nothing about computer models, etc,but the past few days I enjoy reading your opinions, that why I decided to join. Thanks ahead of time.

CoastalWx Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 "This usually results in 2-3 storms that are a mix and even rain if the storms cut west. These are your "transition" storms. Sometimes they slide out south of SNE and can result in a more wintry pattern, but my guess is that we may get 2-3 storms that perhaps aren't pretty until maybe the 26-28 or so."
