Region Wide Christmas Eve Clipper Potential
bristolri_wx replied to WxWatcher007's topic in New England
Be thankful that Christmas Eve And Christmas Day should be relatively cold with some snowy patches on the ground. Better than the last several years. Some flurries or a coating will be nice. Better than 60 and heavy rain! -

Totally depends on the pattern. A couple of years ago RI had the worst of the drought compared to others. But yes Stein has totally vacated the premises here…

When the south wind howls My face turns to scowl I look for the snow And yell “where did you go” A normal winter day Living near Narragansett Bay Inland areas, enjoy. Looks like there could be some positive surprises…

December 2024 - Best look to an early December pattern in many a year!
bristolri_wx replied to FXWX's topic in New England
I feel like at least part of this is the normal modulation of the seasonal weather pattern. It was quite warm and above normal in most of November, so you would expect that even a below normal setup we have now will moderate back to above for a period as we continue to gradually step down into climo. As long as nothing outrageous is going on to the north of us we should be okay as we get deeper into December. -

If people want to see snow, turn on NBC. A couple of feet at Orchard Park. -

Next time say the pattern is “ruff”. Which is also the way Trebek’s mother like it. -

I’m not really caring about clown maps but I am caring about this: https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=gfs-ens®ion=namer&pkg=T850a&runtime=2024112806&fh=6 Look at Canada. That’s 384 hours of ensemble showing mostly below normal or normal temp anomalies at 850. Yes the Pacific drives the bus, but Canada provides the passengers. The last two winters there has not been a consistent normal to below normal cold source region in Canada to help us with the precip down here. I can count on least 5 or 6 storms discussed here where we saw favorable setups near the bench mark and ended up with slop and rain instead of snow due to thermals. We would see weeks of +10 anomolies NW of us. It only takes one or two degrees of thermal difference to go from boom to bust for snow accumulations in New England. Getting Canada colder means more chances for us. While this could all end up dry and boring, it is very encouraging. More so than the last couple of seasons and in December, which have been ratters in recent memory for most in SNE. I would expect you would be able to see these differences as well. Happy Thanksgiving and let’s all be thankful for some potential to cash in after the last couple of seasons of mostly boredom. -

New England Winter 2024-25 Bantering, Whining, and Sobbing Thread
bristolri_wx replied to klw's topic in New England
This isn’t a a criticism by any means, though it come off as one in written form, but just an observation: It seems like a lot of the discussion posts had stricter moderation in the past, and a lot of what stays now used to be moved into the banter forums. It also doesn’t help that we have had a number of shitty winters since the jackpot of 2014-2015. It’s hard to get good moderators these days that have the time to keep the threads organized. There’s a lot of good content here. Just ignore or block the trolling. Don’t think I could give up this place either. -

Just nice to be tracking colder patterns and possible storms this early in the season, a big contrast to the last two. It’s always better when Canada isn’t torching. -
Great read as always.

Blowvember - and not named for wind potential

How far back are you going on these November’s that feature snow? The climate record says otherwise:
