JC-CT Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Just a pretty awful forecast. I haven't really seen anything to suggestion anything more than a trace of snow here. I wonder where they get stuff like this sometimes. OKX actually just updated. <1 all CT zones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian5671 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Well I personally did not expect the big winter anyways. My fun wild ass guess for snow was between 35 to 45 inches for my area Boston etc. I did think that most of our winter weather would be in the second half of the season anyways. My snow today is just under 30 inches and Boston is just over 25 inches. What I did not expect was how warm it was. I did not think we would have near record warmth to record warmth this winter. The warmups were big and all exceeded guidance by sometimes 5-7 degrees. In hindsight Dec was a warning that the warmth would be big this year and would not go easily into the night.

CT Rain Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 dumbest NWS move ever putting NL with OKX. When they dropped the PVD BDL offices they should have just given BOX all of RI CT Well - a couple things. One, the initial CWAs were all based on radar coverage since in the early/mid 90s there wasn't really the bandwidth to get high-res radar data at other offices. That's not the case now so really any office could issue warnings for a given area. Personally, I'd be happy to see consolidation and the media in CT has a great relationship with BOX. New York is so busy with dealing with the NYC media that they definitely don't have the time to be as proactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I mean , population wise BOX is way under OKX, what sense is the tri office coverage for such a small state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Valley Snowman Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 My personal feeling is that Middlesex and New London County would be better with Box and New Haven and Fairfield Counties with OKX but once again if there is not good coordination it makes for some difficult maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#NoPoles Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 You sure will get some good storms. You'll see wind like you didn't see in Medway..lol.

But when you get it, you'll get it good. Even general rainy nor'easters.....they'll pack a punch. You'll definitely have a few moments where you'll get frustrated though lol.

ORH_wxman Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 00z NAM is a general 1-2" for E MA tomorrow. It actually has some LL convergence near BOS and a bit to the west of BOS for a time, so it wouldn't be shocking to see some steady light snow for a bit. It is good snow growth temps, the sopundings have a decent isothermal laer at -12C...so if that actually materializes, it could accumulate a bit.
