Damage In Tolland Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Saturday: Snow showers likely, mainly after 4pm. Increasing clouds, with a high near 37. West wind between 8 and 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible. Saturday Night: Snow showers likely, mainly before 11pm. Cloudy during the early evening, then gradual clearing, with a low around 20. Calm wind becoming northwest around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible. Somehow I'm sure your area will manage an inch or 2..enjoy it I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Miser Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Flakes=none You're going to have to re-fuel that car many times before this winter is over. Only 4 or 5 people can fit in there, and there's probably a line of about 100 or so that wants to climb in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Somehow I'm sure your area will manage an inch or 2..enjoy it I guess I hate seeing you so beaten down. It's like seeing an old friend that's been ravaged by time and circumstance. You can't help but remember them in happier times. Like when they used to sculpt snowbanks and make wild accumulation projections that came true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I'm actually optimistic that I get an inch, maybe 2... I also have a strange feeling we get a couple of light to moderate events during the next 2 weeks. No clue why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 That's a nice signature on the NAM. It's actually almost a weak low, and we are in the "comma head" if you will. I use that term loosely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Might be funny if we get more than Dickwad does. It's still probably not going to be all that widespread, but someone may get an inch or two in a narrow band. Looks like the Berks will get maybe an inch or a bit more anyways.

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Was it Dryslot or Dendrite that first mentioned this possibility a couple of days ago? At least this has been a recurring theme for several different modelszand runs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Was it Dryslot or Dendrite that first mentioned this possibility a couple of days ago? At least this has been a recurring theme for several different modelszand runs I think a few people mentioned the northern stream possibility in an unphased scenario. Unfortunately for me I'm probably too far north of the vortmax track and look to get shutout. Hopefully some of you guys get 1"+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hopefully we'll have some snow squalls to track this evening...the instability is quite high on the models and that shortwave is potent so the PVA should provide a bit of snyoptic lift.

snowstormcanuck Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Picked up more than 2" from this nrn stream s/w just outside of Toronto. You guys should get ready for a half decent consolation prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 BOX seemed somewhat enthusiastic for some heavier squalls VIGOROUS MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND ATTENDING WEAK WAVE MOVE ACROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING. DEEPENING MOISTURE AHEAD OF THIS SHORTWAVE AND MODEST SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT SUGGEST SCT TO NUMEROUS SNOW SHOWERS LATER TODAY INTO THIS EVENING AND ALL MODELS BRING MEASURABLE QPF TO MUCH OF THE REGION. PRECIP MAY START AS RAIN SHOWERS BUT QUICKLY CHANGE TO SNOW WITH EVAPORATIONAL COOLING AS 850 MB TEMPS ARE BELOW -5C. THIS SHORTWAVE HAS POCKET OF -36C AIR AT 500 MB RESULTING IN MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES INCREASING TO GREATER THAT 8C/KM WITH TOTAL TOTALS NEAR 60. THIS IS A STRONG SIGNAL SUPPORTING CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS THIS EVENING SO LOCALLY HEAVY SNOW SQUALLS WILL BE POSSIBLE. IT IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN THE AREAL COVERAGE OF WHERE THESE MESOSCALE SNOW SQUALLS MAY DEVELOP...BUT LATEST GUIDANCE INDICATES BULK OF ACTIVITY MAY OCCUR SOUTH OF ROUTE 2 BASED ON LOCATION OF BEST INSTABILITY PARAMETERS...TIMING 21-04Z FROM WEST TO EAST. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR SNOW SHOWERS/SQUALLS DEPOSITING A QUICK INCH OR 2 OF SNOW IN A SHORT TIME...WITH BEST CHANCE ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF CENTRAL AND W MA.
