I saw that, too. I think it's not entirely different from what ALY was suggesting in their AFD (though Steve might know better).

Only Kev would be making the 18-24" calls right now. Of course both offices would leave the door open for an OTS/south solution as it is the prudent thing to do. Why paint yourself into a corner by banging the drum this early? That said, those of us that have nothing to lose by chuckin' em early might as well go ahead and start chuckin'!!

My problem is that this may be a screwed east or screwed west kind of winter. This could whiff out to sea again or it could cut so much thaty ENY still gets a mess. So I'm unclear on whether I should root for the models with the cutter tracks at this point.

Welcome to my winter of 2009-2010....it was either you or the MA...never me.

I wish I could get into Easterns database. I had a quote from you bookmarked from May when we started the whole La Epic 11 theme. It was priceless, without an exact quote it is meaningless right know, but suffice to say I expect a beer tomorrow.

Yep... Well the reality is that the storm track was good for me from Feb. 23 to Feb. 28. The entire winter outside of that week it sucked.... But you don't turn down 46 inches in four days.

And the other thing is...even in a bad storm track I find ways to nickel and dime it some...as this year. Boring, but certainly not snowless.

If something like that did materialize it would be crushing for our area actually. Snowbanks are already dangerously high, this ain't Chesterfield. We're approaching diminishing returns time I'm afraid, although I would love to see it happen

LOL, as much snow as we have it's really not a problem here. Lot's of room to push it out of the way. I went by Liston's this afternoon and they were doing a booming business. Lot's of snowmachines in the lot. Trails are in great shape.

I noticed in Lowes near here the other day that almost all the snow blowers are gone...seems weird so soon because we get a few big storms and people would still be coming in looking to buy them. Perhaps they have been shipping some of their inventory to the snow seiged sections from PHL to BOS. Just my theory.....

If it becomes more phased to our west

But I don't see any modelling really doing that..Even the Euro.. With that high exrting it's influence..I wouldn't expect any modelling to be able to pick up on the strength of the cold air mass in place at this time frame. I 'd bet we see things start trending south/colder by 00z Sat or 12z Sunday at the latest

the models are bringign the energy out not all at once....theres a lot of time for that to change.

if it does, look out.

One of these days we're gonna get a cutter...law of averages. Which probably sux for here and CYUL also depending on how far west it cuts.

But for SNE..... they have so much snow that they can be philosophical about it if one storm doesn't track optimally for them.

The pattern favors a weaker secondary into the lower OV transferring to off the JErsey shore..Nothing signals some phased wound up low

I wouldn't say that yet. Long wave pattern supports a trough out west and at least a weak se ridge. That can promate a wound up lakes cutter if the energy is ejected more consolidated which is certainly possible at this time frame,

I wouldn't favor it but its silly to discount it happening

Considering none of the ensembles GFS/Euro/GGEm support that I don't think that is likely to happen. Worst case is an ice storm I would think

perhaps, though im not sure about the jersey shore part....but it could happen, yeah.

phases never really happen cleanly so you have that going.

but the trough position is waaaaaay west. this is nothing like the storms previously this season.....and the partial phasing is waay west too. i said last night if it wasnt for the PV, this thing would be up in minnesota and we'd all be ice to rain....so we are lucky its there.

if there is a stronger phase, there will be issues though, the further south you are.

seasonal trends say thats not likely to happen though?

yeah u r right

they are in a great positon, where they can even afford an early feb hiccup.

i cant afford anymore hiccups if i want to make this winter memorable (depthwise).

I'll say this...the people here are real winter wx die-hards. :) To be so into this next threat within two days of the past epic storm. I probably would have taken a few days to just chill out and enjoy the scenery before jumping back in.

Some people in CT are having the deepest snow depth they've ever had...I'm aiming for March 2001 depths, but it will be tough to reach unless we get another really big storm or a couple moderate events with little melting in between.
