Yes this x1000. Today's my first day able to really catch up with weather related stuff. Do people forget what just happened?? Lol

This has been a pretty impressive stretch since mid-Jan. very cold period punctuated by a top 5 event on record.

What do people want? Lol

 

simple - repeating threats ...unrelenting.    

 

I think though that in the after glow of that awesome storm, the GFS touched a nerve by puking out that 960mb, 06z run 2 nights ago.  That run really hit at just the perfectly wrong timing, when the guards were all down.   I bet the models were flat this whole time the tone in here would actually be better.  It "seems" there's an under-current of feeling currently duped, and I think that is why.

I don't think it went more than 10 miles NW of it. Way way off.

did it even go north of the BM? the last images i saw before my power went out it looked like it was going to tick a few miles S of the BM but i never got to actually see it. regardless...the NAM was atrocious. even after it had it running into CHH, it then had it running just east of ACK and up to east of PVC then doing a loop and heading S then SE.

I don't remember exactly where it went..it may have just went SE..but it definitely was nowhere near what the 12z showed last Thursday..lol.

Please don't clutter up the threads..

 

Anyhoo.. weird that the stupid NAM won't let go of this. I hope it verifies for you folks.

 

I will shovel my cirrus while SW CT continues to build it's lead on N ORH county

Yeah, the nam is like Arod believing in his own lie.  Yeah, I didn't do anything, it's just MLB and the Yankess out to get me. 

 

The nam told itself it was going to snow--it's not going to let go-believing in its own lie

EURO nailed all features except the anomalous mesoforcing.

 

That deformation map Chris posted actually had the forcing from CT to MA and into ME. It didn't hit the ferocity of the small area in sctrl CT...but that is tough to figure out. The QPF bomb over LI was the hint for this.

 

I don't have things like deformation plotted to look at, but a crude way of looking for this are trying to see wind vectors in the H7-H5 layer and noting where they are converging. This will then try to push the isotherms together and thus frontogenesis.

We will certainly have our opportunities going forward.  None of us can't help what the sensible weather outcome is, but to say this is the same old pattern because two storms that had less then 50% chance of a high impact, miss, is completely false. The January pattern and the pattern going forward couldn't be any different. This is what you want...people bitched about cold and dry, and now they b**ch when for whatever reason they don't see 5 KUs on the GFS op. There is one system after another with this pattern. No they won't all be white...but what do you want? Give me action anyday of the winter instead of cold and dry.

 

 

If two systems fail SE and then the next one is warmer/west a week from now the net result will be similar to what we've experienced.  Substitute the words sensible weather for pattern if it keeps everyones panties from being in a bunch.  There's zero doubt the pattern has changed, we've been 40+ for 3 days which didn't happen much during the cold outbreak.  It's actually nice out for the first time in a few weeks.

 

I don't want anything, I'm happy with what we had and I think most people feel the same way.

 Like I said yesterday, it won't be that cold except for this weekend. The cold is not very prevalent, but the cold will probably be enough for some..and the pattern over the next two weeks looks ripe for storms of all kind. Don't forget, I'm talking about New England as a whole. There isn't a doubt that NNE will get snow and you and I will rain for a point.

Yes this is going to be awfully close.. 25-50 miles north and southern areas get 5-10" .. huge bust potential at a bad time, if southern ct gets 5-10" tomorrow night after things are finally getting cleared and all mets are forecasting 1-3" , people are going to get really angry

and more school closings etc....no rest for the weary
