Thursday's storm ...Rain, wind, snow and ice?

I was merely backing up your point regarding some get snow and some don't, and those that aren't getting it can sometimes be vocal about it.

Ok, That is true, I use to b**ch about it back on eastern but realize we have no control over it so its useless and just clogs up the threads

well, I must apologize - I didnt' see this coming. I thought things would be more settled by this morning; in retrospect, I'm smacking my own face wondering why I thought that would be case when there aren't any precursor purer teleconnector signals in the background. Although ...heh, this year it should not be surprising based on seasonal trends and recognizing the models trying to operate cycle to cycle within those. I am speaking of course to the ECM's balmy overnight run after such a cold profile yesterday at 12z, and the 06z GFS's taking the vort max WEST of BOS overnight!

It is still possible those are errors - but I am not holding my hat on that. I do recall saying yesterday that the NOA being positive really did argue for a NW track - at the time I was 50/50. But I saw the UKIE at 00z, and knowing that inside of 80 or so hours, that models verification scores are surprisingly competitive against the Euro, and in fact better than the GFS, it was a bit more hopeful. But seeing the 00z ECM be horrid - I'm backed off on this. I don't have a very good feeling on this system to be totally blunt. What appeared to be more confidence last night is a house of cards looking back.

My old trusty method doesn't really support a winter-like event - but again, there are anomalies embedded within anomalies all the time. Simply put: it can still happen, but I don't think if it does I will be right about much of anything as again, my feeling on this thing is all over the place.

I have seen the NAM be about as oblivious, just as much it has been right as rain against these bicep global models over the last 4 years. Synoptically, the colder profile should work given to the BL conditions/better polar high N/CADing and so forth, yet these globals ignore that and bully the warm right through. The NAM, on the other hand when using the FRH grid profile over BOS does not look icy though – it looks like heavy snow W of BED along the Mohawk Trail (rt poopers), with some sleet contamination. Narrow icing in a band between there and the Pike. Butt banged by cold rain S of there/Pike. But that is extrapolating WNW from BOS based on spatial awareness and pattern recognition experience in the past. The BUFKIT profiles I strongly suggest should be implemented, but I can't do that from here.

Hi stakes event - if it is missed, the impact would be ginormous. The NAM's 12z GPF is hugely over an inch, and if that were to fall as 2/3 snow, and then 1/3 ice at interior locales such as FIT-Barre Falls- Orange mass, the impact would on the N side of moderate, with limited warning. On the other hand, if the NAM is pulling some of its usual crap of being too cold or warm, only to correct inside of 30 hours - which we won't unfortunately know for another day, then all bets are off.

If your so mad about them getting snow why dont you move there and you wont have to worry?

WTF are you talking about? I'm not mad they are getting snow. If you took the time to actually read the post I said it was good for them and all. I said we were frustrated because it wasn't us getting the snow and didn't want to read about it. I always hope everyone gets snow, I just want to be a part of it. Most of the attacks against me this AM were from folks who had trouble comprehending what i was writing

Alot of us did see this coming.

Lucky you didn't take me up on that wager offer. lol

BS!

the only thinng you saw coming was a wanton disregard for Meteorological reasoning in lieu of the weird popular voice going on around here to abuse your selves with this neurotic nit-picking and find reasons to be negative for snow.

The 00Z Euro could easily have come in more in line with the previous run, then what would have? Nothing...

It's not over yet - either. I'm trying to be objective about this. As I said, I don't have a clear vision/feel for this, but that doesn't discount a colder solution verifying on the whole. But see? It's presumptuously rushing to a conclusion that hasn't happened yet.

Come on!

I disagree. We gave meteorological reason why it could come north, but only to a point. However, it still could be enough to screw many of snow and give them more ice or rain.

Some of the members may have just been pessimistic, just to be pessimistic...but the funny thing is that there is a reason why people are pessmistic and it ties to some things that have been a continual cycle in this winter. Southern stream systems with no blocking have come north.
