Storm next weekend has better teleconnector support than this misery ever did

[Kbosch]

I remember in '93 I was living in Stamford. What a disappointment when the sleet moved in. I guess the same was true for '96. I'm so glad I've moved away from coastal influences. Even in ME it screwed me. Of course, I was still averaging 80"+ in spite of that screwing up there

It happens a lot down here. I'll live with it if we can get this kind of snow. I am sure you know how it goes with that - I can't remember the last big event that did not sleet at least for a while.

But this is so close to being perfection.

Thank you, Ryan!

As i stated earlier, the voice of reason for the Ct River Valley. (Much appreciated by this realist)

Alas, it's over.

How do the radio shows work? Do you need to dial in or do you listen on-line? I've tried linking but I never hear anything.

SkiMRG loads the bong, I bring the Brodeur and then we tune in. ;-)

Welcome to the web page of the NCEP Downscaled GFS by NAM Extension (DGEX) forecast. The DGEX is initialized by interpolating the 78-h operational NAM forecast to a smaller 12-km domain. A 78-h to 192-h forecast of the WRF-NMM is made (same version that is running in the NAM), using the previous 6-h old GFS forecast for lateral boundary conditions. Click here to see the computational domain of the DGEX runs over the CONUS and Alaska

I'd really like to have a discussion with the modeling department at NCEP and hear their thoughts/reasons for puting out that product.

Aka worst city on earth.

And where I'm sitting right now. Thanks!

call-in show

Why is there a link if you need to call into it? That's confusing.

[Wx4cast]

He's the only one saying that..not likely

Gibbs, CT Rain.....I'll add more to the list as we go along.

Kev, again verbatim interpretation of 12z/21 DEC EC you have to consider this.

water temps are in the 40's off L.I. so it would be hard not to mix for a bit at your locale.

You didn't sleet in 96 I don't think.

93 I thought was an awesome storm. Had about 10" in Branford with sleet on top. It was pretty wild... especially with the wind.

I was in branford in 93..the sleet was the size of small marbles

Well, I grew up in New London. Our aspirations there were to get sleet instead of rain..

Sorry, but it says you're in New Milford? I was just ragging on Danbury because I go to WCSU. It's not really that bad of a city..nicer than Bridgeport.

perfect 50/50 low on the 18z gfs

That could be a bumper sticker--"Danbury--at least it's not Bridgeport"

[HIPPYVALLEY]

perfect 50/50 low on the 18z gfs

what hour is out to now?

[CT Rain]

I was in branford in 93..the sleet was the size of small marbles

I remember sleet being whipped by 50 mph wind gusts for hours and hours. That was wild.

[Kbosch]

Exactly. 96 may have been the last clean large event. It always turns into a matter of how long we change, not if.

Well, I grew up in New London. Our aspirations there were to get sleet instead of rain..

I hear that. Just a little shift and we're all in great shape here.

[Clinch Leatherwood]

GFS got rid of the s/w wrapping into the low over the lakes aloft...should be an uncluttered outcome on the 18z run. Energy is really held back, was clearly a model poop.

[Kbosch]

what hour is out to now?

Got it out to 48 now

I will not speak of that. Nightmare pingers

[CT Rain]

I will not speak of that. Nightmare pingers

I think I had like 11" with a W.E. of like 2.5" or something awful.

[dryslot]

Looks similar to 12z maybe further OTS........

[Boston-winter08]

out to 108, low off NC appears to be heading east

[weathafella]

GFS further east. 18Z however holds no candle. We may have an idea by Friday.

[dryslot]

At 126 its at 40/65........

[weathafella]

Take the ECM ensemble mean and call me in the morning.

After the last storm how could it be considerd this far out......

[SouthCoastMA]

"right where we want it"

"as we thought"

[SouthCoastMA]

Take the ECM ensemble mean and call me in the morning.

AMEN.

I liked the fact it strongly held serve over the benchmark, even as the OP went way west.

[snowNH]

The Euro can't be wrong again, can it???

The GFS is like an annoying nerd in class that is always right that you just want to punch in the face for asking questions at the end of class
