moneypitmike Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Seems like there is some disagreement between the BOX and ALY AFD's. ALY follows: REGARDING SATURDAY...QUITE A STREAM OF SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE SEEN IN CURRENT WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...AND THE SYSTEM CURRENTLY ALONG THE U.S./MEXICO BORDER...WEST OF TX...WILL EJECT NORTHEAST AS MORE NORTHERN STREAM ENERGY DROPS OUT OF CANADA. SOME SPREAD IN STORM TRACKS AND NORTHERN EXTENT OF PRECIPITATION TRANSITION ZONES NOTED IN GUIDANCE AND ENSEMBLES. CURRENT CONVECTION IN THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. SUGGESTS THAT ONCE THE STORM ORGANIZES...SOME CONVECTION WILL OCCUR IN THE WARM SECTOR...SUGGESTING POTENTIALLY HIGHER MOISTURE AND MORE NORTHERLY STORM TRACK DUE TO DOWNSTREAM UPPER RIDGING. MANY AREAS COULD SEE SOLID TO HIGH END ADVISORY LEVEL SNOWS...WHILE THE MID HUDSON VALLEY...NW CT AND SOUTHERN BERKSHIRES COULD SEE MIXED PRECIPITATION. SO...AT THIS STAGE...GOING WITH LIKELY SNOW IN MANY AREAS...AND LIKELY MIX IN THE MID HUDSON VALLEY...NW CT...NOT QUITE TO THE SOUTHERN BERKSHIRES...BUT LATER GUIDANCE WILL BE CONSULTED ON THAT AS THE EVENT GETS NEARER. TIME OF ONSET OF PRECIPITATION WILL DETERMINE HOW WARM WE GET SATURDAY. EARLIER ONSET...WHICH IS MOST LIKELY...SUGGESTS HIGH TEMPERATURES ON THE COOLER SIDE OF CURRENT GUIDANCE. SO...HIGHS SATURDAY IN THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hey Mike, The snowy part of our Winter is just about to get going. Nice extended forecast for the High Terrain. Snow/Cold. Big Winter incoming, Big Big Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hey Mike, The snowy part of our Winter is just about to get going. Nice extended forecast for the High Terrain. Snow/Cold. Big Winter incoming, Big Big Winter. Think you might be right, Pete. I didn't see mention of winds going into last night. But after that nice coda of snow between 6-8, we cranked here. Gusted to 33mph before midnight, 30 after. Given my anameter siting, that's pretty impressive. FTL, I need to buy some wood. I'll be through my dry cords in about 10-14 days. I knew I didn't have enough. My green's been split and cut but prefer to not tackle that. Not to mention that it's buried under 3' of snow.

codfishsnowman Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 If you read between the lines aly..box and upton are all very nervous with regards to Saturday's storm. the only things guaranteed is that there will be an east coast storm and there is no good source of cold air in place... i am really worried about rain with this one..after maybe a few inches of heavy wet snow and a little sleet. maybe the deep snowpack will help..upton has very warm highs for nyc area early next week...but even if this event is more wet than white i do think we have not seen the last of big snows for the entire sea board..i still believe there is an 1-95 monster in the cards sometime before winter ends..

ski MRG Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I was just outside talking to one of the town plow guys who is busy pushing snowbanks back. He said they're preparing for another 12-18" over the next week. Not sure where he's getting that info from but it sounds good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahk_webstah Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 CoT FTW. Move it back because more on the way. Keeping the wood pile snow free and dug out has become quite the task these days. At least it is staying cold so the wood isn't getting wet. 1717 Mike, get ready! Winter is just getting going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahk_webstah Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Geez I like my zone. The have separated the Concord area from the next group south which borders Box. In that zone they still call for neavy accumulation but say sleet might mix in. They are juicier (implied) than HPC which has CON right around .5 and up to .75 s and e of there.

mattb65 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 OT: But did you all see the Winter Storm Warnings all the way from the very southern tip of Texas - litterally brownsville texas extending almost the entire gulf coast to new orleans then winter weather advisories into the panhandle of florida. What a CRAZY winter. Brownsville Texas! I think their criteria is for 1 flake of snow in the air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattlacroix4 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 GYX AFD is talking dirty. HEAVIEST SNOWFALL DEPENDS ON THE TRACK OF THE LOW...BUT IT APPEARS A WIDESPREAD 6 TO 10 INCH SNOWFALL IS POSSIBLE. RECENT CLIMATOLOGY WOULD FAVOR THE OFFSHORE TRACK...WITH THE HEAVIEST SNOWFALL ALONG AND JUST INLAND OF THE COAST. Yeah, I liked seeing this. I would have more confidence if the stupid GFS didn't send this off the coast this morning. The last couple days it has really been flopping back and forth on this. I suspect 12Z will be more like 0Z, which was perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 So I guess my math is wrong, Taunton has taken 6 days off so far due to the weather. As it stands now, the school year would go to June 28th since they started on Sept 7th. The school committee is meeting to discuss options, of which include longer days, Saturday's, and April vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is how long into the year will will have snow on the ground. The other is tied to the tapping of the maples. Those taps will be higher than usual. While many of us are hooked to a tube system, some of bucketed the old fashioned way. Be a chore having to trek through to empty those buckets every day.

moneypitmike Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 The good news with this system is that where it snows obviously there will be a gain. Where it rains, it's a quick mover so not too much rain will fall. Or maybe that's just my qpf fixation talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a change to snow for you at the end. Not really feeling this one, for us. Next week intrigues me more. Hopefully the runs tick colder, but this has a chance of going right over the canal.

We are finally starting to catch up on snows with you guys down there, The only difference is we are about avg and you guys are having a phenomenal year..
