hooralph Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I personally think it's time to start getting serious about this storm..and not be cautious..this could be a life threatening situation Especially when nobody near Storrs can watch the Final 4 because the power is out.

Even maximzing the 06z GFS would be a KU storm, probably less than historic. Certainly manageable by use of common sense. Not life threatening.

HoarfrostHubb Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Quick word of caution - No model yet benefits from the denser sounding domain over land. The bulk...all actually, of the jet dynamics are over the NE Pacific as of 06z. One could argue that the 12z initializaiton this morning might get tickled, but really that is 00z onward tonight. As tempting as it may be to bite into a 06z GFS solution, there could be some significant adjustments by 12z Wednesday morning, despite the fact that we are only really 84-96 hours from whatever is going to unfold from this. Or not - often enough however we do see system mophology upon final relay over land. Send in da planes! When does the energy start to get sampled? Weds?

OKpowdah Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 GEFS are interesting. A number of members make the third s/w dominant, diving down the backside of the l/w trough, which as you can imagine has some ramifications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Well Tip is right, we could see some significant adjustments. While an East Coast storm is likely, it still could waffle a hundred miles in either direction from the 06z depiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not life threatening. Hahaha... in general, snowstorms are not "life-threatening" in New England. Unless you live in the plains or some place where white-outs are easy to attain and there are no services or help within 50 miles, snowstorms don't threaten your life here. There's always the caveat that unless you are pretty stupid you're life will not be threatened by snowfall in New England. Ice storms to me are a different beast, but people these days just aren't as impacted by snowstorms as they used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I've thought about that already..and am concerned How widespread were the power outages after April 1 '97?
