Early April Winter Pattern Likely

Good grief what a clown solution on the GGEM by D4-5...it might have high temps in the low 40s under sunny skies while the GFS is like 68F with high dews as we warm sector....GGEM has us under the core of CAA on the backsid eof a strong ULL.

I don't understand why the NWS is going so warm for Saturday. Don't you think all of SNE is going to be 45F or lower?

Its all about precip...if we are hanging onto light snow or R/S mix as it lightens up, there is no chance we hit 45...but if we clear a bit then it could be mid to upper 40s easy...also if we stay north of the precip and the whole thing whiffs south, then we'd be well into the 40s to even near 50. I don't think we are hitting 55F though.

NWS has been playing it that this misses south, but we'll see if they revise it after the 00z suite. Euro will be a big run...every run has come north so far but the Euro can make it all a buzzkill if it doesn't.

Still feeling a bit uneasy with the euro south at 12z...but all guidance at 00z has come north, so I'm getting more optimistic. I think there's a good chance for snow there...the only issue being is you are closest to the confluence being in NE MA, so the precip might dry and weaken as it gets there...but in a more robust solution like the Ukie, that is good for you as it protects you from mid-level warming so you would probably clean up in that scenario.

I'll say this...if you get solid qpf, you will probaly get several inches of slop. I think the question there is qpf and not really temps...obviously it might start as a mix or light rain, but quickly go to snow...you are seasoned enough to know the deal in late March/April on that front though..

Well at least you got something in the 2/29-3/1 storm...I think BOS has been taken out back to your beast of man shed worse than NE MA now after that storm....before that storm, you probably had about equal claim to the screw job relative to climo.

Euro came north but is still pretty terrible verbatim....maybe a sloppy inch for the highest terrain in NW CT and W MA. The trend is definitely north, but I was hoping the Euro would jump a little further than it did....but it's vortmax track is actually decent, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it increase qpf in future runs. It got a bit ground up by the confluence, but it wasn't horrific looking. It was definitely an improvement.

Well at least we're seeing some improvement... hopefully it'll keep trending in the right direction.

Does the Euro still seem to be the furthest south of all the main 0z models?

Yes Euro is definitely the furthest south at 00z...which is annoying since the Euro is the most skilled model, but its had some wild swings recently, which supports the notion that this is not set in stone by a long shot.

Interesting model solutions last night. Glad I waited until this morning to see how things look. The s/w on the euro is still rather disorganized which is why the solution is blah, but all the other global guidance improved. In fact, 06z NAM is too far north for CT now..lol. 06z GFS rolling now.
