October 19th 2015 First OES event for CHH

[USCAPEWEATHERAF]

Coolwx.com shows the 18z GFS producing a few snow flakes for CHH as winds turn northerly at the surface through 850mb for a time on the 19th.  Temps look a little too warm maybe around 40F for daytime temps and -8C 850mb temps which should produce a really good delta T number in producing ocean effect snows, so maybe a band or two may develop, I can't wait for December as I think our first accumulating snowstorm occurs in the beginning of the month as PNA stays positive throughout the winter months and then NAO and AO comes negative for a time as well.  December 20-30th a  big KU special occurs.  In my opinion, but this thread is just for the OES event potential on the 19th.  We are still 3 days away from it so it is still in question.

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

I wasn't paying attention , was there a nice OES event for CHH? Ocean effect snow events are cool.

No, there were just the popcorn showers that everyone else got, maybe the slightest bit of enhancement? Def not anything organized...I didn't see CHH report snow, only RA- but someone may have had some flakes down there.

Couple of ocean effect flurries scattered about the Outer Cape. Just had some a few minutes ago in Brewster.

I missed that. Must've missed the ASOS stations too.
