  1. Poor kids might not even get a snow day out of it, they'll have to cheer for damaging ice storms now... talk about externalities
  2. I'm a little skeptical about the ability of models to accurately depict subsidence holes, especially small ones. This will be a good test. My feeling is that this will be by and large a people pleaser in SNE... Perhaps not as evenly distributed as say, the Superbowl 2015 storm, but without the huge sucking sounds we sometimes get, like say, last storm.
  3. March '13, I had almost 8" at 740' living on the hilltop in the valley, and at 300' was a slushy coating.
  4. Interesting calling for more on Old Silver Beach than in GC. But they probably figure dragons won't call in totals anyway.
  5. If you're looking to take a road trip, Magic is planning to open on Thurs.
  6. Whereas the east flow could be problematic for some in this area (hi!) due to terrain downsloping, I'll be pretty surprised if mid level subsidence is a major factor.
  7. Agree, certainly not calling for #1 all time at BOS (at the time) but that was another weak ass lp with a big high to the north. I know the setups aren't precisely the same, but saying totals are limited to 8-12" just because it's high 990s instead of mid 980s raised an eyebrow for me.
  8. couldn't possibly care less about central mass holes on guidance. Boxing day had us at 18" or something and we got a slantsticked 3". The fact the surface LP is relatively weak here works to our advantage IMO. We don't need giant banded nukes pushing the 970s, winds shredding the dendrites to pieces. At any rate, it's ski season. Berkshire East was on the verge of nil 36hrs ago, now looking like an opening day powder fest.
  9. The areal averaged soundings on TT are a pretty nice tool. I note that the 3km nam and the gfs are pretty similar off the coast... around hr 54 the GFS really starts racing convection ENE off like VA beach.... If anything convective parameters for the nammy are a little better in that region (approaching 200 j/kg SBCAPE, mid 60s/low 60s, a ton of helicity) and yet it's not nearly as aggressive as the GFS in actually generating ^(organized) thunderstorms.
  10. yes. It was substantially deeper there than in previous runs.
  11. The GFS is really aggressive with the convection offshore.
  12. I could pass on gasping for air while ORH gets destroyed again thanks Reggie
  13. Gearing up in the car is the fooking worst, especially once it's a spring mud bog. That's what the muckers are for. Clop clop clop clop clop
  14. Berkshire East just announced opening on Thurs 12/17
  15. Berkshire East has been hammering away and I saw cat tracks on the webcam tonignt. Wonder if Pro Lurker has heard anything about opening?
  16. Reminds a little of 12/1/19 how that thing gets squeezed underneath.
  17. Either way... The last week of January 2000 featured 2 sizable storms for the Capital region. They were probably pushing 2+ feet OTG. Maybe more in places.
  18. It's that same Feb 01 storm probably. Definitely rivalled Feb 13 for snow in the valley except somewhat more localized.
