The Feb 10-12 storm threat, real or imagined?

Yeah, Tim Kelley and I were just discussing that on the lift... the MOS guidance really isn't reflecting just how cold of an airmass that could be. This weekend could be just a brutal cold, windy, dry weekend if you are north of that arctic front. Lapse rates look pretty steep from SFC to H85 and that means orographic snow showers and squalls.

maybe some LES on WSW flow out ahead of artic front?

Pretty comical reading the wishcasting in this thread from some posters about this week and weekend

I think there is still some incredulousness that we are not getting snow....and an unstated expectation that it will snow. I admit to being in this mental state myself. I just expect that suddenly a snow storm or two are going to show up inside 4 days.

Well, All i am seeing is that i am going below zero a couple nights this weekend with a fropa unless we get some other model guidance showing otherwise here very soon besides the euro as it had showed some lt snow on saturday

i will welcome any winter storm & snow that wants to get here with open arms...but i have to admit i'm getting close - not there yet...just starting to sense it - to just wanting to fast forward to spring and warmer weather.

this is all too boring. 44F and storm-less...which seems to have been the weather for an eternity now...is getting very old.

We are in a crap pattern. Despite things here and there looking more favorable, some of the key factors remain to help stick it to us. Sure a fluke can show up, but it's just not a great pattern right now. Of course I'll always check out models because I know how things can suddenly appear if timing is right, but it's just not a great pattern.

yep. the atmosphere does what it wants to do.

obviously there's a degree of bad luck in there, but as a whole we are just stuck in a bad set-up. happens every so often. i'm still hopeful we can pull something out at some point before 4/1 but clearly the clock is starting to tick.

what's starting to bother me is how much we are starting to feel the lack of conus snowcover affecting air masses. it almost seems like mid or late march the way these relatively cold (not yesterday/today) air masses aloft are yielding AOA daytime temps. bleh. oh well.

Euro should come in with a nice solid 2-4 inch stripe in most if not all of SNE Saturday-Sat nite and it will probably linger in Eastern MA all weekend

Why do you say that? Do you have scientific reasons why it should? Or is it the weenie in you?

Much more so PF than me this winter.... He posts the pics of all the snow in Stowe regularly, but I don't mind it because at least I get to see snow somewhere....

Sometimes I'm responding to MPM, Pete, etc. who are neighbors and have similar wx.

all you and powderfreak ever do is post about ENY and WVT specials and getting snow to linger in ENY/VT. all we ask is you include all of us in your posts.
