    The 2008 ice storm in ORH was like that....no snow or sleet before hand or during the event....even up in N ORH county like near FIT they had some sleet or sleet/snow mix for a time which whitened the ground a little. But down in ORH it was all "clear ice" on everything.

    Def favors eastern areas for highest potential....track is near or just SE of benchmark. You'd get accumulating snow too though.
  3. ORH_wxman
    Yeah I’m sure you’ll breach 6” when you add in the upslope stuff. The synoptic stuff is good base-builder though even if it’s only 3 or 4 inches. It’s denser, especially if it’s borderline sleet or changes to sleet.

    Yeah euro was snowier up there than 12z run. It’s not super different from 00z NAM up there...but down here it was. Euro had a period of snow down here while NAM is mostly sleet at the onset after maybe a couple flakes. You’d still prob change to some sleet or ZR near the end but not before most of the precip thumps you as snow. It’s not a very prolific system (prob advisory type snows from the synoptic precip) but it beats rain. Lol.

    NAM did come in a little colder. Not quite as cold as the euro but colder than the 18z NAM. Bit of a sleet bomb for a few hours in the pike region. More snow into CNE.

    It has a few hours in N CT from Kevin to your old stomping grounds before it goes to 33-34 rain. Nothing big but it doesn't take much to be dangerous for anyone driving.

    prob starts around midnight friday night give or take a couple hours...might be 2 or 3 inches there? Hard to say...mid-levels warm quick, but sfc stays cold. Def some sleet and ZR in there.

    The 1961 Xmas eve storm was pretty epic in parts of SNE. Over 20” in many areas.
  9. ORH_wxman
    18z euro tickled colder. Def more snow for CNE and NNE than the 12z run. Maybe a quick inch or so for the pike region too.

    Kettlebrook is a great course... But back on topic. 18z eps still interested in 1/3-4
  11. ORH_wxman
    Charlton is def a pretty good weenie spot ...but there’s a definite difference between them and those places to the north of them we are discussing. Esp in CAD setups with icing and pack retention. It also sounds like runnaway can’t live in the total sticks, lol....so he’s gonna have to stay pretty close to ORH proper in this hypothetical scenario.

    Paxton MA. The town west of the airport. 1200+ feet. Real weenie spot. The only pain with the west side and towns like Paxton is that it’s not near any highways for quick travel east (if you need to get to Framingham for example)...north side of ORH and towns along 190 would be better for quick highway access.
  13. ORH_wxman
    No the airport is not north. It’s west side over by Tatnuck Sq. Winter hill is north-northwest side near the Holden line.

    And i was telling you +8 for two weeks isn’t close to record warmth. You’d need to go up a lot higher than that.
  15. ORH_wxman
    You’ll need like +14 or 15 for a two week stretch...which would require the Davis Strait stuff to disappear. Anything’s possible but I ain’t seeing it. Maybe Caribou.
  16. ORH_wxman
    Oh yeah...he will def want to PM me. There’s massive difference within the city...there’s a definite N to S gradient too overall but also elevation obviously.
  17. ORH_wxman
    Wolf not howling tonight?
  18. ORH_wxman
    He might have been issuing a forecast for the Davis Strait or northern Quebec.
  19. ORH_wxman
    They are a little more bullish on a Davis Strait block...and we will need it for sure the first 10 days of the month with the garbage PAC. Hopefully a better PAC materializes beyond that.
  20. ORH_wxman
    Underdog that it will end up a big storm, but can't rule it out. Marginal airmass (though at least it appears better than 12/5 as modeled) and a lot of shortwaves in the flow don't allow for much margin.
  21. ORH_wxman
    Euro develops a legit Davis Strait block in clown range around 1/7. We'll see if that can help keep things underneath us until the PAC improves. We will need it so hopefully it has the right idea.
  22. ORH_wxman
    I have to admit, that would send Kevin on an MLK-2010 style melt
  23. ORH_wxman
    H5 low tracks in Ottawa, lol....tries to redevelop SE, but I'll take this with a grain of salt obviously until we get closer.
  24. ORH_wxman
    Yeah it's a sloppy development....initial pulse of PVA is well west which is a red flag to me, but it doesn't really have room to amplify so it redevelops east....the QPF and clown maps will look fine, but there's a lot of moving pieces that will change over the next few days.
  25. ORH_wxman
    Ugly evolution on the euro for 1/4...but system is still there for sure. Something to watch.
