Rest of us rarely get good snows in November, but get some good fresh arctic airmasses and the upslope/rotting LES magic tends to work its wonders there. Yeah it definitely is...bookend season. Oct/Nov...April...both picnic table seasons, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 The EC really tries to push the Scandinavian ridge into Greenland. It would be nice to utilize that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Valley Snowman Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 are we still looking at a potential PV split and strat warming event coming and what kind of effect will that have on our sensible weather conditions as we head into December?

CT Valley Snowman Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I guess about 80% meltdown, so a 50 inch depth would probably end up about 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking at snow data...Mansfield's biggest discrepency between ORH and them comes in November. That's a good month up there. February only averages a little bit more than November on the picnic tables. (31 vs 37 inches) At ORH, it's like 17 vs 3 inches, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feb 5 2001. even the Blizzard of 78 that area only had about 18 or 19 inches. I don't recall the exact amount, but I was living in Westfield and I think it was 23" in 9 hours.

Some of the pics in this event were reminding me of what it looks like out there right after you get dumped with like 6 feet of snow. I went on many trips there out there in the 1990s and early 2000s (my aunt lived there)...there's a reason all the roofs there are steep and metal...lol. I'd be doing a lot of shoveling off the roof if I was one of those houses in Elma or Cheektowaga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know how much work it is to take 18" off my roof with a roof rake. Then of course most people don't have them, can't get to the store where they would be sold out so you got to take your chances. Another 2 or 3 feet on top of this I would think would cause some real structure problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 As much as it thrills, unfortunately there's loss of life of elderly unable to get to medical care in an emergency as well as other deaths.

No way 6 feet, and two more feet coming melts in a couple days!! NO WAY!!! There will be flooding, but it isn't all going to melt completely.

Typhoon Tip Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Nice photos but it's really localized... You can drive 10 minutes ...well, if snowy roads permitted, and you'd be down to almost nothing. I grew up for a while in Kalamazoo Michigan, and I can remember seeing dark gray wall to the SW, and bright white walls in the NE horizons, as the LE bands typically split around the city. We'd be getting nothing; inside those bands were over a foot. The photos for me are not as epic as they may be for some, because these things are so tiny, with major impact for very few compared to regional scales.
