STILL N OF PIKE

We have been so “lucky” with summers , I’m wondering why that is compared to Europe and the rest of the USA

I don’t think I’m gonna make it . I thought I was good to go but getting held up training someone

Nobody knows what the rest of the winter holds , keep it together weenie

I think for the most part ya… but as far as snowing in SNE along the CP I see hints in posts that the first week of January is meh still with temps but that is far enough out to be up in the air .. I dunno . The reality is ..Even close but no cigar is much better than now . I guess I’m saying first week of January may step down into an interior SNE look instead of rains to maines . But I could be reading the tea leaves wrong

Lol NNE elevations should be good for a couple more decades . Probably more 4 footers coming

Ok so it’s been 12 years ..?

It’s Possible Greta hacked the data set and map

Hate to see CT miss out like that

Well , there is a reason I travel for snow . Life is short and if I can’t I’d rather invest emotionally in something that will bring me more happiness than frustration . I mean I’d go back to Florida where girls prance around in bathing suits and are under 200 pounds otherwise . I would like to see data on snow cover days for areas that were marginal winter weather wise and warmed over the last twenty years . Like maybe Philly , NYC , L.I and the immediate burbs as well as S coastal SNE . Seems like there are more high-moderate to high events based on more juicier systems seemingly present which can help total snowfall numbers where there is a little more temp wiggle room but I would be curious if total snow cover days are decreasing simultaneously for the areas I mentioned . During slower winters I do ponder whether at some point 20 -25 or so years from now if the basic New England CP SE of 500’ MHT to ORH just turns into what upper interior mid Atlantic to NYC and S coast has or maybe that isn’t the general case

14 years including this year …cmon .

I’ll always look forward to your Euro PBP on a big system inside 5 days

I definitely didn’t pay attention to modeling on this , primarily because there was no snow up in ski country . I definitely wish I would have watched the fetch and modeled winds over such an expansive area. There was a run or two from a few days out I took a screen shot of the insane S fetch distance between the modeled low and the high to east of east coast and I was like “wow that is an insane fetch “ . I probably would have tried to chase the surf damage in RI . Huge over achiever all the way up the east coast regarding surge and wave action. That seems to happen often enough with non pure tropical entity systems - under prepared. Doesn’t get the hype of a tropical season entity but when the fetch is a monster the damage over delivers .

Wasn’t there a decent December snower the day after last years GTG for CT folk , like a little powder puff event

I decided to train someone 530-630 in Burlington so hopefully I can make it by 710-715

Many mountains reopened today . Wildcat hasn’t but I figured most resources would be diverted to attitash given the amount of rentals planned over next 2 weeks there

Gotta watch for the 27’th period , consistent signal for a cutter . Some show 1-2” of rain well into Canada.

January is gonna be a boatload of fun, no matter which way the cookie crumbles

I wonder what other sort of significant terrain issues were caused on other resorts from flooding

That’s fine it could .and my hope is it does for NNE ski resorts bc I’ll be staying up there But calling that a good run should put him in a padded room

I was actually mildly optimistic that the run was good looking , then I looked lol Sometimes I wonder if you’re looking at the models upside down or if you moved to Greenland. That run has a double cutter on the 27-29 that rains to Quebec on the first pass and then leaves enough energy that a coastal low comes in and rains to Quebec again a day later . That is out to 240 hours

Staying in N Conway soon, disastah

Possible, esp for elevations

Is Europe snowy?

I mean it’s not that rare for SNE to see many rainers consecutively in second half of december , but it takes a more exceptional turd to give ski resorts and Snowmobile areas 3 rainers in a row during that period . Really doesn’t say anything much to me about the rest of winter just that skiing will likely suck for a while

The 0c 850 line is north of international falls from hour zero to 180 and as our storm moves east across upper plains on Xmas day . (There are a few frames where it may dance to -1 interspaced but um ya that is many standard decisions above normal . It appears We need a ton of confluence to push down into and from Quebec to see something frozen in much of New England from that system at this juncture
