I think the Dover, Delaware area will end up being pretty close to the Jackpot in this particular snow event. I think about 10-12" may do it. Curious see the final results down there..
I guess this is why the Boston Weather Bureau started going with a slower warming than originally thought. Again, unusual to see it like this around here.
Tell me about it! Seriously, I'm here watching ice accumulate on the branches, grass, bushes, railings, pavement, and my Kia Sportage is all entombed in ice.
Merry Christmas guys! Hope you and your families are nice and safe. Honestly, I myself did not expect an ice rink today. Highly unusual this close to the Boston area. Many relatives cancelled. I haven't seen something like this in quite a while around these parts.
You will rain on Xmas and I will get some ice, watch..... Even in this La Nina a grinch seems to still lurk in this atmosphere. Reason? Lousy Pacific and an Atlantic that isn't really helping much.
No, I got snow for a while here but when it turned to rain it beat the snow down quite a bit. Only left with about 0.1 on ground now at about 8:00 AM after it hit close to an 1.0" around 6:00 PM last night before turning over.
In all honesty and kidding aside with these clown maps, I really don't know how much is really sleet vs snow in those maps that I posted and of course the 12K and 3K Nam is included in that.
The 12k NAM erodes the 1030 MB High quicker than the 3k NAM. In other words, the colder air hangs tougher on the 3K NAM and that's why hence, more snow. It will depend on what model is correct about the erosion of the cold air edging in from the north.
