dryslot Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 We kept hearing about how epic January may be, now it's Feb lol Yeah, Just need to look out the window to see how epic it is, If it was a epic fail, We have mainly achieved that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Well it's been fun tracking, will enjoy the inch and look on to greater things, sadly there is not much in the future in the way of greater things according to the models but oh well, cold temps make for nice snowmaking and good skiing! Pending a miracle on 12z(which I think will be worse than 6z), this is done. Skiing should be great this weekend with the whole week to make cold snow so if you are starved for snow get out and get some man made! Know I will be out enjoying what we have. -skisheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I thought we would have some chances with the ridge out west, but it just wasn't amped up enough and the flow too progressive. I was wrong about that. It's interesting because the model the hinted at this was the operational GFS. When it shows no storms..kind of a red flag. I always harp on the GFS op showing hints at a pattern..but didn't take my own advice. At least going forward it does show several storms in the vicinity.

mahk_webstah Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 fwiw, I think we get a period of deep snow and winter this year. I suppose it is possible that all the good cold is wasted, but that would be pretty unusual. I can't see it staying this dry through february given the strat warm and the mjo seeming to move into the best phases for us at the best part of winter for snow climatologically. unfortunately it might come late so it isn't as fun as 3 months of deep snowpack. But I think we get it eventually. It is frustrating, but this is New England and we shouldn't whine too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 And some of these right behind it............. :weenie: Our best chance in the reasonable term is the post frontal system I mentioned yesterday that comes in around the 31st give or take. That could be our major event, or should be for at least some of the region. After that I think we end up in a similar pattern with a ridge not quite strong enough to do much and a system trajectory similar to what we have now. That's JMHO and it's very early. Maybe a system threat around the 6th through the 9th. And we can always hope for a last minute pop. If I had to guess I'd forecast just flurries and snow showers right now for Friday night. Maybe the Cape gets a couple of inches and the high ground. I doubt I surpass the .8" I got a week ago from storm 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 can you say more about storm possibilities over the next 7-14? Well some sort of mess coming next week. Perhaps preceded by a weak WAA light snow event Monday or Tuesday. Then perhaps some sort of ice to rain or just plain mixed precip in NNE mid week next week. I think we warm sector down here, but probably for 24 hrs or so. Maybe 36. Afterwards we get cold, but I couldn't say when the next snow is. Maybe to start Feb? 2/2 or 2/3 ish??

danstorm Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Want to make a friendly bet big Daddy? I will take Bos and 20 inches in Feb you take the under. A gentlemans bet I'd take that bet but I don't live in Boston anymore and don't want the agony of watching you snow while I whiff. How about 15" at KNYC in Feb?

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I don't place much stock in post frontal systems I think this one will be different but may favor you guys and western/northerwestern New England. Just a hunch. I think we have a better shot on the arrival of cold versus once it's established with a fat PV sitting nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could, You probably would never have to work again...........lol, Other then the 2 storms here in Dec 27,29th It has been abysmal by our standards, Even some coastal communities here have more snow pack then i have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danstorm Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Another victory year for Kevin? Ironically, he is one of the few who has cashed in this winter. As an aside, I missed the 11/7 storm in NYC so I have seen a grand total of 0.4" fall in my backyard. A bit jaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the setup and MJO phase suggest it trends colder as we get closer? Any sign of sneaky highs in SE canada? It is late Jan and there is great antecedent and snowpack. I feel moderately optimistic particularly longer term. Don S is awfully good for the long term it seems...and he seems optimistic for Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This airmass may be tough to dislodge in NNE so Im not sure you guys will get mild. Different down here obviously, but only for 1-2 days perhaps.
