powderfreak Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Meh... no accumulation. The real deal was west. That event is the first photos my parents still have of me in snow. It looked like 8-12" in the pics near ALB with catastrophic tree damage. There are green trees and branches down all down the street. I'll have to get that photo online. And to think that was almost a month earlier than Oct 2011 snows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was nearly 6" in Newtown and 10" in the hills outside Danbury in Putnam Co NY and towns like New Milford and Sherman CT. Just sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 Wasn't there an ak vortex at times during our epic stretch last year? We did, but it was far enough west and oriented in such a way that we could pop the PNA positive. It's sort of trying to do that on the ensemble which is why I said it isn't a blowtorch pattern, but it is a mild one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be more skeptical if the wind direction wasn't with the prevailing direction. Usually they are some wonky direction or crazy high speed (like 100 knots).
