D6 event....blizzard, flizzard, rain, or partly cloudy?

Anything west of the BM track is not good for Cape Cod, MA, we will get low level warming and flood with rain. We need a 41.5n/69.8w tracking low in which it deepens rapidly down to around 970mb or less and we get within the CCB and comma head as it stalls east of CHH for 24 hours, we get a 30-36 hour period of moderate to heavy snowfall. That would be the ultimate scenario for me at least.

978mb just SE of ACK going NNW to coastal NH while bombing...it even keeps BOS all snow. That actually looks like the Ukie solution.

You can always count on both the DGEX and Ukie for extreme weenie solutions in this time range. :lol:

They would probably be better off running the Eta past 84hr via the GFS rather than the NAM.

By the way, cities northeast of KBUF are getting a ton of snow right now. My grandmother in Williamsville, NY said there is about 12" on the ground and another 12-18" expected by tomorrow morning. Radar imagery shows intense band right over their area.

As I've learned before... this is probably the last thing anyone on here cares about right now. Another meso-scale favored snowbelt getting more snow. :lol:

Are you kidding? I am sure everyone here in the day 5-6 storm threat thread in the New England subforum was dying to hear about lake effect snow bands north of Buffalo, NY!!!

There's a D5 snow threat??? I thought this thread was dedicated to Ray's LES circle jerk.

Wait, I am confused, we haven't had snow since January, how are we favored? On a mesoscale level maybe, but when was the last time you have heard CC getting snows while everyone else hasn't? I have not been notified of this. I mean my grandparents are getting feet of snow and I have nothing but clouds with an occassional cloudup teasing us with potential flurries.

LOL, he was talking about KBUF.

18z GFS big hit

looks like the GFS cooking up another hit at 96 hours

The 18z GFS looks to massacre us.

18Z looks good....precip cutoff greater over PA so far, but low position is nearly exact to 12z

18z GFS solution is starting to come around a bit to the Euro upper air solution but still some notable differences. As for the actual solution we care about on a model run, its going to be a huge hit for a lot of the area.

lol :weenie:

Lock it up.

I hope you're being sarcastic....

Hmmm, I'll take the ots option over another rain event.

That last one not only ruined a decent start to the VT ski season but it also screwed up the pond/lake ice - hopefully not for too long.

The several inches of clear, strong, black ice that was out there has now turned to dangerous, brittle, white honeycombed crap on the ponds around here.

No, not really.

ALB not getting too excited..

HOWEVER...EVEN THE 12Z GFS MODEL HAS THE TRACK OF THE SURFACELOW...TO BECOME "CAPTURED" BY AN UPPER LEVEL STORM...PRETTY FARSOUTH AND EAST FROM THE USUAL "BENCHMARK" FOR A TRADITIONALSNOWSTORM IN THE CAPITAL DISTRICT. IN FACT...THIS TRACK LOOKS VERYSIMILAR TO LAST YEAR`S STORM WHERE MOST OF OUR AREA (EVEN TO THESOUTH) RECEIVED VERY LITTLE SNOWFALL.ALSO...THERE IS NOT THE USUAL DOWNSTREAM AMPLIFICATION OF AN UPPERLEVEL RIDGE ACROSS THE WESTERN CONUS THAT USUALLY PRECEDES ASIGNIFICANT COASTAL STORM.FINALLY...THIS SCENARIO IS NOT SUPPORTED BY EITHER THE 12Z GEM-NHEMOR ECMWF. BOTH MODELS KEEP ANY SURFACE WAVE MOVE OPEN AND EVEN A BITFURTHER OUT TO SEA WHILE THE UPPER AIR LOW REMAINS BIFURCATED FROMTHE SURFACE ONE.SUSPECT THE GFS IS UP TO USUAL EAST CYCLOGENESIS BIAS WHICH WE SEETIME AND TIME AGAIN DURING THE WINTER.HOWEVER...SINCE THE OTHER LONG RANGE FORECAST MODELS KEEP THE UPPERAIR LOW SEPARATED FROM ANY STORM DEVELOPMENT...THIS UPPER LEVELFEATURE MOVING TOWARD US FROM THE NORTH COULD BRING SOME SNOWSHOWERS...MAINLY TO THE HIGHER TERRAIN. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP THEMENTION OF 30 POPS FOR SNOW SHOWERS ON MONDAY...OTHERWISE SLIGHTCHANCES IN VALLEY AREAS...LOW CHANCES HIGHER TERRAIN FRO SUNDAY ANDTUESDAY.
