Couchsachraga Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Since a few folks have mentioned it, and it IS <meteorological> winter (didn't get much above freezing here today too!), here's the new thread.... Our last little storm certainly did some road damage, and tree damage. Here's hoping the next one is all snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 It's looking like Montreal may see about 4" of snow Sunday into Tuesday, while Quebec City could see between 8-10". Unfortunately Ottawa just seems to be just that little bit too far west to get into anything - we're sandwiched between the lake effect to our west and the synoptic snow to our east. Looking on the bright side, it is looking fairly cold into the medium and longer range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Nuisance --SN here all day today and the clouds have kept it very cold. Only 24.3F at noon...

Woke up to an inch both today and yesterday. Enough on the ground for the kiddies to have some fun sledding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yep it continues to aim for you...and you'll probably duplicate that again over the next few days. Hunter Mt. finally opened today I see. 25.3 here now with the light snow showers persistent. So it looks like this is the high for the day....maybe we nick 26.

DeltaT13 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Looks like I've picked up about 3 inches today in SW Rochester. Probably close to 5 on the ground including Wednesdays system.

Ottawa Blizzard Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 really nothing to report here so far other than a dusting but at least the models are now showing that winter has established itself with some potential excitement thrown in. The snow picked up in intensity in Ottawa about an hour ago. I'd guess we have about half an inch on the ground - better than nothing. EC is now calling for just flurries in Ottawa on Tuesday, but snow in Montreal on Monday night and Tuesday. I'm guessing they're thinking that the retrograding system doesn't quite make it as far west as Ottawa. I was kind of hoping for an event similar to New Years last year.

I was kind of hoping for an event similar to New Years last year. the storm is retrograding at too far a north lattitude (and the block is not quite as strong), compared to last years event. nevertheless, some snow is better than nothing and periods of on and off light snow should continue for the next coupe days...., and it appears several snow chances are in our future, and indeed it is about to get a whole lot more active likely.

Yes, as Logan said, it looks like some very cold air will soon be making its way into our region. Should hopefully start to freeze up the canal.

Logan11 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 The 0Z gfs is certainly a nice improvement for Ottawa with the phantom low next Sunday/Monday. It has the threat of a changeover just about to Albany with a track into Southern NE now. Welcome! Yes, it looks very Christmas-like out there.

Logan11 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Wow I don't think any of the ALB TV guys realize that much has fallen in the Catskills anywhere. I have 2"+ here now and moderate snow in this more northerly plume that set up overnight. This is a pretty good shot of LES for here where it's tougher to come by. 19.8F 4" late yesterday and 4" more this morning. 10" total from this event. 6 miles away in Bloomville there is probably 3" total.
