Potential widespread snow event for Wednesday Night through Thursday.

I've had about an inch of snow in 40-50+ days. There's been almost no potential during that time and really nothing to talk about aside of "potential" which isn't my thing.

I felt I had a legitimate shot at 3-6" from this one but also said it was just as good a chance it would bust low as high...that was yesterday.

Beginning later last night and now today it's pretty clear the GFS is EXACTLY what you say it is, a terrible model, and minus that this is NBD for almost all of us in SNE aside of SW and S CT.

Doesn't mean it won't snow, but let's be realistic. We will need to see some very favorable trends in the radar today to turn this around and I think everyone here admits that including you.

Well for those of us who are inline for 3-6 inches..it's something fun and exciting to track and look forward to.. You do what you want..but don't ruin it for those of us that are looking forward to some spring snow

The SUNY has the H7 frontogenesis progs too. That favored area tracks right through S MA.

lol at that norlun band too.

I'll add that that 2nd area of frontogenesis to the north is showing up on composite radar from upstate NY into S VT/NH, but dry air in the low levels is sublimating it. Virga FTL.

Sure because you bring so much to the table when you make a statement that I said it wasn't going to snow just to be a dolt.

You're emotionally invested in all of these events and that's fine. But subjective discussion of the latest trends and models, and pointing out that you of all people bash the GFS the most and call it worthless aside of this one time when it's giving the most snow.....well that's valid.

What time are we thinking for snow arrival in KBOS?

Models are kind of all over. This is what I have from a few select ones:

06Z GEFS: 1am

12Z GFS: 8pm

15Z SREF: 1:30am

06Z BTV-WRF: 9-10pm

Definitely seems like the trend is later tonight between 10-12am.

Just trying to narrow it down a little bit.

Vertical cross-sections are showing quite a bit of LL dry air between 600-750mb for a time.

1-3 is a more reasonable call for you

When will you go into board hibernation this year? Any dates you're considering?

I think the echoes in the Mid Hudson Valley/Catskills are serious probably...and would be moving toward areas of CT below a Canaan to Hartford line essentially.

Here I'm still waiting for echoes to the west to get here....then into the CD and then maybe the Berkshires, etc.

This is just going by the trajectory on the radar....

Well it looks like an early spring snowstorm on the way for my area, time to embrace it, enjoy it, bring some wood in and deal with the fact work has been put on hold for a few days.

I think 3-6 is a good number.

Good luck to all!!

35

light snow

quite the switcheroo from you this morning when you said the radar was horrible and the GFS was king...:whistle: just kidding....I'd love 3....6 is not out of the question but that will be hard to pin down as to who gets it...

It will be hard to pin down, just some very light snow showers lately, looks like the good stuff comes in after 6pm.

damn, I was terrified that this would collapse this badly. Ski resorts were banking on it in order to open up again this weekend, yikes...

LOL at ski areas thinking about "reopening" at the end of March. It's the end of March. Most ski areas shut down around now due to the lack of visitors and revenue.

People get grumpy when there are dissimilar viewpoints. This basically looks like a non-event for most.

It's ultimately semantics. One person glass half full, one glass half empty. Half empty is definitely winning out on this event, like you said.

they made a ton of money this year because of the lack of necessity to make snow. Therefore, who cares if they lose some revenue over one weekend? They make their passholders happy. Not every business/coporation is evil, you know...
