CoastalWx Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 LOL at the euro op. Only in this pattern would you have a low going east of ACY and all rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on it is that if there's any trending warmer on the 12z runs, it's done and I'll begin to focus beyond it. If it holds steady or somehow shows signs of colder, we have something to watch. 37.2/36, light drizzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I'm a little suspect of that solution, but who knows. Well the colder rain keeps us closer to seasonal norms temp-wise. Meanwhile, is it just me or do others really hope for short-term forecast busts in a bad pattern? I think with everything that goes awry in the short-term, there's an implication on the longer term. So, I'm happy that my WWA was a total bust last night. As of 8:30, I have had 0.00" of precipitation. I'm not sure why that is, but given my statement about short-term busts, I'm kinda happy that's the case. (Note: if that short-term forecast had me getting 3" and it was dry, you know I'd be singing a different tune!. 37.4/36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Surprised there's not more talk about the norlun that will extend back into much of SNE Staurday afternoon and nite. Obviously the OES is one aspect... With that vort coming thru there are going to be sneaky Scooter bands of snow with it. i remember a few yrs back maybe in like 2006 when one of those dropped a quick 2 inches in much of NE CT and NW RI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might actually be near NYC, but you know how it goes with those. Certainly nothing heavy at all, but perhaps some mood flakes and minor acc for some I guess.

Those NORLUNS are never modeled well, It will be a 24 hr out type deal to where and if it sets up, I have been on the good side and the bad side of them up here..

Yeah TBH I'm not sure where it sets up..Seems like guidance always wants to start them in the NYC area but it always seems to shift away from there as we get closer. Maybe this is the time is does get the city. I just have a feeling there may be some surprises for some folks this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like every week. in this horrible pattern, i'll be content with some flakes in the air...but i do think there's a shot at something more than that. fwiw a bunch of the eta members have some "decent" qpf on the cape...and really just seeing precip modeled is a good thing.
