A new Baby, a fresh approach

Incomplete analysis (due to incomplete memory) of fairly recent Pats snowy wins:

Jan 2001, 16-13 OT over OAK. (Tuck Rule game.)

Dec 2003, 10-0 over MIA (Though the snow was only that thrown into the air by fans after Bruschi's pick-six.)

Dec 2008, 47-7 over ARI (And the Cards nearly won the SB that season.)

Oct 2009, 59-0 over TEN

Not including any such games I've missed, that's an avg score of 33-5, though an NFL game ending with that exact score has probably never occurred.

AUG still hanging tough at 30, with FZDZ. Hooray for CAD.

Pats @ Bears 12/12/10 36-7

43/43 00000KT 1/4SM FG RMK MSRBL

Less than 1 in 4 :( (based on a 1" or greateron the ground for a "white" Christmas)

That sounds a little low to me, but perhaps Logan Airport really stinks enough in December to make a large difference to just a few miles west. Those numbers were also based on the 1961-1990 period. I wonder if we extend it to present if it gets better for them. I think they had 2000, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 as White Christmas' since the turn of the century. In the 1990s they had 1995, 1997 and maybe 1998? If we gave them those eyars they would be almost dead 30% from 1960-2011.

But regardless, it is definitely below 50% right in Boston. Rays area is probably a coin flip...your area 2 out of 3 or 70%-ish.

Strange day for departures and temps, orh reached 57 which was a +16, was +5.4 for the month before today, should be north of +6 tomorrow.

Tan looks like it really torched while the valleys were much cooler.

5 out of the first ten days at orh have featured double digit positive departures.

Different pattern vs 2011 December, same result. Torch.

The worker was on work leave from prison, It was the Englishman, John Smith that kicked the only FG of the game

Yup... they have the plow in the Patriots HOF.

Roland James with an INT in the end zone to seal the deal... I was listening on the radio in my parents old VW beetle (I think) in Braintree that day. Remember it pretty well

There's actually a 3rd NCDC image floating around as well.

Here's a map I came up with. It closely followed a 2001 image from NCDC, in an attempt to give better resolution.

There's plenty of debate, especially with long-term averages vs. what we've seen over the past 10 years, etc.

Well back home finally. Everyone is doing fine and finally have a laptop to look at weather in between feedings..lol. I'll continue with yesterday's comments...this really is a decent pattern overall until Christmas imho. I understand some will not reep the benefits, but for the overall region, GOA trough and a west based weak NAO block will allow for storm cances.

lol with the unlabeled, or referenced map. "Probability Scale" for what? How do I know this isn't the probability that the Great Pumpkin apears every Halloween?

Ok... I will post the source of this, an amazing TRS-80 produced map showing probabilities of white Christmases between 1960-1990

18z GFS looks pretty crazy pre-truncation.

It would be a shame if the type of storm that the 18z GFS shows had no cold air to work with.

Yeah it really would suck if both of these upcoming storms have no real cold air to work with but yet take favorable tracks. That would be the ultimate slap in the face...great track, mid December, but no cold air.

Next Sun/Mon...

The 19th/20th storm would cause some emotional issues on this board if a perfect track took place with huge QPF but absolutely no cold air. Worst case scenario right here for 90% of the board, lol. Thankfully it'll change next run.
