Interior hills flip to heavy snow for a brief time, but hard to tell how much they would get..even with the 6 hour WSI graphics....we shall have to wait fro wunderground';s 3 hour graphics. But its not a good trend. Really warm and typical of this pattern....its a bad pattern because we zero margin for error.

Don't worry...according to skierinvermont, it's silly to fear the NW trend because no guidance showed a NNE hit 84 hours out.

not really, no. if a -nao was in place that would crush the flow S, then Scott's beloved whiff term comes into play.

Disagree. Stronger s/w ridging could develop downstream of the trough, while cold air is reinforced. Right now, It's technically getting a little crushed by the large vortex to the north.The s/w would be able to maintain its potency, and definitely have a little slower forward speed.

Pattern recognition is important when making those calls...not everyone is seasoned in that department.

Apparently not....though NAM and EURO maybe a bit overamped, we'll see...no matter for me.

I'm out....no worries because I knew this was a long shot.

Like I said, 5" or less in December.

Sh**ty patterns usually lead to sh**ty trends. We can maybe look at the Silver maned man's 4-8" of of paste in this one...but this is exactly why I was pessimistic from the get go. Its a horrific pattern.

Maybe we get lucky and it happens, but do not think for one second it was because the pattern was good. It stinks...it will be because we threaded the needle.

Ehh ..looks nice. :) But at this rate maybe tomorrow at this time Utica or Cooperstown will be reveling.

Yeah the jackpot is still far eastern NY and into the northern Berks, southern Greens. But a nice snowfall here also if that verifies.

I'd have to imagine somewhere near Adams would be jackpot on the euro. 1.5" of qpf to the nw of the low over the Berks...very marginal at the beginning but cools off as it ramps up.

Being out of the country and missing this event gives me some perspective. This is a crappy pattern. We have one of the warmest falls on record. It is Dec 6 and we are looking at our 4th measureable snowfall in the interior. It wants to snow this winter. Once we shift colder it is going to snow a lot. It is great to be in the pattern for now because when it flips it will be awesome. And it will flip, there is a lot of cold air and snow to our north, we have decadal trend of -NAO, we have repeated high qpf events. Gonna be n awesome winter. :weenie::snowman:

good snowstorm is coming southern New England area . Some will will always say no dont look at every model run . Track likely be near the bench mark area . over 6 inches . Some people will always say to far west or models are changing every model run but storm will track inland but just off the coast. same area that got hit in oct will get hit again.

EC ens are amped up like the op. I'm probably in a brief RA to +SN scenario as of now, but these 6-12hrly jumps NW are pretty large and there's no sign of stopping yet.

Apologies to snownh for getting on him about trolling SNE with a NW trend days ago....although the trolling was wrong it ended up verifying that way. That was when the s/w was modeled by everything to be flat as a board when it reached our region though. Obviously that will not be the case. :lol:

Thx..but premature yet... Pete still gets hit harder on the 0Z Euro... It's such a narrow band that gets heavy snow ..from just east of ALB to the central/northern Berks, southern VT...I suppose northeast into NH.

Think it shows like 3-6 inches here though if it verifies. :)

.

Congrats Rick!

Take a pic

Hopefully the trend ehds

From the upstate NY thread. Though I'm sure you've seen it. Never good to be the jackpot this far out though.
