jan 05? 

 

looking at H5...you may be right.  

[IntenseBlizzard2014]

I know this is going to be the event that we'll remember, but for how long is the question.

Yeah...I think he has to mean Jan 05.

What a bunch of weenies in here last night.

LOL... up early for work or the baby?

[ChrisM]

Work, blah.

Wait til tomorrow!

[CT Rain]

Work, blah.

 

Yeah me too. Blah blah blah.

[CoastalWx]

Now this the Scooter we know and love, welcome back from the dark side. Lol This is a Boston special pattern, would not be surprised if an OES doozy showed up.

 

 

Eh, still not sold on a prolonged epic stretch.

[CT Rain]

The weenies will be upset with the 6z GFS. Though does have a wintry appeal with the clipper on Sunday.

[ChrisM]

Wait til tomorrow!

I know, went to the casino last night and basically all of central ct and especially se ct is obliterated snow wise.

I'd be happy with a 3-6 late-blooming miller b. I think that's what is a reasonable want at this point. I don't see an epic stretch right now.... although these days an extended period of "normal" temperatures in winter is noteworthy.

I just can't get a feel for how this plays out and the longevity of it. I see both pros and cons.....but this does have potential to really crush too. In true fashion for this winter, I'm always looking for what can go wrong since nothing has gone right.

I think the orientation of the PV and how the flow looks in general is probably not favorable for KUs. Tough to get a lot of amplification but there's certainly some potential for late-blooming Miller-Bs. 

 

Putting down some fresh snow pack would be nice for a chilly pattern.

That's all I want.

It's sad that a 7-10 day of normal or somewhat below normal is an "epic" pattern lol. 

[CoastalWx]

Another boring 7 days on the way. Sort of mild and no snow. Won't be until Friday that it really cools off.

[Tropopause_Fold]

Lets get this started already. What a long stretch of boredom.

It's been painful.

Lol...same thought at same time

[CT Rain]

MWN set their all-time January temp record this morning at 48. Impressive.

Completely blows.

Mt Tolland will set it tomorrow morning.

Too bad none of us are old enough to remember this.

Alternative hobbies FTW

Yeah I have one now...taking care of a little human and not just Ray.  Lack of sleep would go by much more smoothly when there is something to track.

[CT Rain]

Yup... a lot of other stuff to get done over this brutal stretch. It's weird for me though because boring weather means boring days at work. It's like a double whammy.

[Tropopause_Fold]

this torch peaks over the next 24 hours. tonight will be one of those brutal S wind nights.
