It was more a comment to the fact that NY/NJ have warning and it looks like the precip is going to (mostly) pass them by today.In which case p-type question cancel. It may get ugly in CT too.

weathafella Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Snow has begun. Time to go out with the dog in celebration. I should let her piles be covered in heavy snow but that would be anti social.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I think today will be near I-90 and just to the north jackpot. I could see MPM-Hubbdave-Ray doing the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 11/5, snow. 1.5"new. Great ski tour this AM. Love to see the falling snow in the headlamp. Trails are in top notch shape. The air is thick with small arctic flakeage. This is gonna be a pretty good thumpin' up here. There is never enough snow as far as I'm concerned. The weekend system should trend colder, at least that's what I'm expecting. Glad February is starting right where January left off. Long live Ullr!!!!

codfishsnowman Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Channel 22 doesn't like latitude gradients it seems....unlike their competition at channel 40 wow that is as bulliish as I think I have ever ever seen the local wmass stations with regards to snow amounts...and the most bullish from the ct/ma border all the way to the nh/vt/ma borders.. they almost never forecast amounts like that in reg coastals..... the only time i have ever seen them forecast big amounts in coastals is AFTER the storm is well underway and they have to up amounts...usually those two stations are very very conservative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yesterday it was a HV runner or close to it..It's the outlier anyway..no worries Noyes has all snow for the weekend It's an outlier which is good, but a persistent outlier. Gotta weigh that in. The world won't end if we get rain, but I wouldn't go 100% euro right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yesterday it was a HV runner or close to it..It's the outlier anyway..no worries Noyes has all snow for the weekend I'm glad we have free ec maps, but the 24 hour intervals suck. Provide more of a tease than any answers. Guess that's why we rely on those who have the real stuff to give us the play-by-play. SNowing nicely attm, but the flakes have a long way to go before I start making any metnion of a good ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT looks like dry air may play havoc where the best qpf breaks out. I'm guessing the snowfall will be more spotty than a general 4-8" like most TV mets have.

Fixed. Actually where they're usually really wrong is their maps never really depict the orientation of the valley (geographic, that is) accurately.

Mike, here's what Andy says on channel 10's web site. I think we're good for 18-24". if (PLATFORM.EventMan) PLATFORM.EventMan.triggerEvent('WNStoryRelatedBoxdone');Your Storm Tracker Forecast From NEWS10 Meteorologist Andy Gregorio<BR orgFontSize="13px"> Man the Plows! Long Duration Winter Storm likely...<BR orgFontSize="13px"> Here we go folks...a prolonged high impact winter storm will affect the area today right through early Wednesday night. The storm will be a "two-fer" event, that is it will impact us in 2 rounds.. Round #1 is today... a 'zipper' low will scoot east-northeast from the Ohio Valley towards NY State. This low will produce all snow over the area today. A moderate accumulation is expected in many places by evening time before the snow tapers off and becomes intermittent. In general along and south of a Montgomery County to Bennington County line 4-8" of snow is forecast (with 6-9 inches possible across the higher elevations of the Southern Berkshires and the Central and Southern Catskills) with 2-4 inches north of the line. After 5pm or so through about 2am tomorrow morning just some occasional pockets of light snow are expected. Then after 2am comes Round 2 and the second round will be the "bigger" event. Snow will overspread the area after 2am and by 7am tomorrow morning widespread at times heavy snow is likely. Tomorrow morning's commute will be majorly impacted by this snow. It looks like 2-4 inches is possible throughout the region by 7am Wednesday. Steady frequently heavy snow is LIKELY tomorrow morning through the afternoon hours. Snowfall rates of 1-3 inches per hour are possible during this time period and there's even the chance for some lightning and thunder, too! During tomorrow some warmer air aloft may work its way as far north as Albany thus the snow could mix with some sleet for awhile; if this happens it could "cut-down" on potential snow accumulations a bit. However areas NW through NE of Albany will stay ALL snow and this is where I am forecasting the heaviest accumulations. Right now round 2 looks like it will dump at least 8-14 more inches on Albany, the central Catskills down to Hudson and across Southern VT and the Berkshire County north of the Mass. Pike.
