Ginx snewx Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Well there is only 1 or 2 claiming it's epic and one for the ages. No offense to them, but it's too early for that so don't read into that too much. I think you will catch up at some point. Just my gut.that's living life on the edge right there, bold call. Certainly not epic for snow in my hood, probably a hair over average, cold though, pretty epic in Maine so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Mansfield is only 12 inches below normal depth, a Forky fart and he makes that up. Have you seen his pics? My heart bleeds heavily I hope Forky doesn't fart anything up here. It'll be interesting to see where that's at in another 1-2 weeks, and if Center Harbor can best the 4kft picnic tables Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 It's all relative. If you live in an area like pf that gets a ton of snow, what is above average to us is average to him. A pattern that is great for him, is usually a toaster bath for 75% of the board too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Lol, very true. That stretch you outlined was just heinous. October 2011 pretty much too the blizzard last year. Pretty amazing stretch of futility It became comical, but even you guys did better than me. I got the middle finger with almost all events. The best was the 12/29/12 event I believe, in which even the Cape flipped to snow. while mother nature decided to pivot her middle finger over Boston. I pretty much just had to laugh. Even in January when it looked like things would change...I was too numb to even care. Luckily the blizzard happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was quite fun watching the Blizzard of 2013 unfold, that day it snowed a lot like the Jan 2005 blizzard had. We had turned to rain for a time or dry slotted during that storm in 2013, but the pressure fall was amazing with that storm. THis past storm fails in comparison to both of those storms.

Yup the 12/29 event we got like 5 or 6 around here, and it seemed like two feet as it was such a sight for sore eyes. I remember the boston screw zone in that event as well, as you said it was an even more comically bad stretch up that way. So many potential events that never panned out or ended up as rain. I hope that nobody had to go through a stretch like that again. It pretty much got too a point where I was happy with the inch of snow we got a few times during the cold outbreak last January, pretty sad, but in the past hopefully for good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that winter, I didn't deserve the snow I got. In 2011-2012..I didn't deserve to get screwed that much..lol. Climo always wins. I joked about somehow paying for that winter...I just didn't know I would pay the piper and then some during the following year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols1989 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I could definitely see a situation in which the pacific disturbances bring in warmer air aloft with them from the Pacific Ocean and bring in modified cold air, indicating a change to rain for south of the Pike areas. It looks marginal at this point. I could be wrong given that we have some ridging over Western US, but the disturbances ruin the ridge and therefore break down any cold air sources.

Whineminster Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Driving up 93 this morning there was a dust cloud of salt residue over the highway. Could see it for a mile or 2 ahead around kcon under the inversion. Theres always some after a storm but it was as noticible as I've ever seen it. Pretty nasty. Yeah it was so odd, looked like fog almost it was so thick on my way south on 93...felt like I could taste it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols1989 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 It looks like the Thursday and Friday event is getting stronger on the models, NAM is more inclined to have a northern and southern stream systems in play here, as well as the GFS. With some GOM moisture getting involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I dunno...it doesnt look good in the upper levels. Though i did think we had a chance at some overunning light snow but that failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The NAM has been showing potential for some snow showers too tomorrow night. We get some decent lapse rates in the LLS and PVA to try and sustain them, but there's no true instability like in typical WINDEX events since the inversion is pretty low around 800mb, so it would likely remain scattered. Kind of like the November snow showers we had that gave a some people coatings and an isolated inch in a lucky spot or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
