The Euro and the GFS are fastest with the 0c isotherm to about HVN/BDL by 00z Tuesday. Other models are even slower bringing it in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No power Pete climbing the pole in his Wolf fur coat with squirrel hat with coyote hide shoes again. Just got in. Nice night out there with a beautiful halo around the moon. the proverbial calm before the storm. At least we'll get some white first. The power outage thing is a nuisance but I serviced and topped off the generator in October so if need be.... Still, I'm looking right past this storm for there are good times just over the horizon. I'm hoping we get several inches of snow then an extended period of sleet/zr. That stuff is usually pretty stout and stands up to some abuse. I'll count it as a victory if we don't lose our meager snowpack. Regardless, I think our fortunes are about to change in a big way. You know, Christmas snow is Magical.

I actually just read an AFD from there and they said the magnitude won't be nearly as bad as the December 1st event. Not surprising. Snowcover up there on the west slopes should also help put a lid on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising. Snowcover up there on the west slopes should also help put a lid on things. as we thought... I SAY THIS AS THERE ARE MANY SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THIS SYSTEM AND THE ONE WHICH BROUGHT DEVASTATING DOWNSLOPING WINDS TO THE WESTERN SLOPES OF THE GREEN MOUNTAINS DECEMBER 1ST. GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE MAGNITUDE AND AREAL EXTENT OF THE EXPECTED IMPACTS WILL BE LESS WITH THIS ONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 How so ? Not doubting you, just curious about the mechanism at work. Snow cover can keep temperatures a degree or so lower which reduces the amount of low level instability and mixing of stronger winds from aloft.

Tropopause_Fold Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 It'll get cold by Monday night but this is no flash freeze. yeah...flash freeze requires a very tightly packed gradient. they actually don't happen all that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 yeah...flash freeze requires a very tightly packed gradient. they actually don't happen all that often.

ski MRG Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 It'll get cold by Monday night but this is no flash freeze. MONDAY... THE HEAVY RAIN SHOULD COME TO AN END ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN BY MID TO LATE MONDAY MORNING...AS THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET/FORCING HAVE MOVED OFF TO THE EAST. HOWEVER...DEEP CLOSED UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST AND SHOULD RESULT IN ENOUGH LIFT FOR A FEW HIT AND MISS SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS. ANY SCATTERED SHOWERS SHOULD CHANGE TO SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE INTERIOR LATE IN THE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING AS COLDER AIR WORKS INTO THE REGION. WE SHOULD NOT SEE THIS AMOUNT TO MUCH ACROSS MOST OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. HOWEVER...WE MAY SEE SOME SPOTTY LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES TOWARD EVENING AS COLD POOL ALOFT/STEEPENING LAPSE RATES APPROACHES THE REGION. Box agrees. I'm banking on being in the right spot for a "spotty light accumulation" Monday night. Doesn't seem like a wide spread snowfall is in the cards as the system pull away.
