weathafella Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 It's a correction that has to do with the AO, not how snowy our winters are. The biggest correlation of all states it is very difficult to get another 60"+ winter for BOS. Another? Last year fell short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'm not sure I would call that a reversal, January 97 was a reversal that did nothing though Jan 2013 definitely got colder on the coast, but it didn't produce much locally. What I mean is something can become more favorable, but the nuances that guide snowfall dictate how things produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most minds, a more favorable pattern that doesn't produce maybe isn't all that favorable after all lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the pattern changes, but it's not an automatic to way above normal snowfall. Likewise a not so nice pattern can be awesome like Dec 2007 and 2008. That's how it goes.

eyewall Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The Grinch Storm has already claimed the morale of this forum and it isn't even January yet. It is a tough one to take I realize that and I would be melting down too if we didn't have the start we did up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The storm itself shouldn't be that much of a heartbreaker, it's hardly producing any snow anywhere, as a matter of fact we cancelled any extra work coverage for tomorrow since it became apparent not even any Midwest or Great Lakes stations were really getting any major snow.

Well I think its timing is the worst part and it is a blow to a great early start to the ski season, but that is true overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 It's not claiming any morale for me. I've had worse seasons to date and there is a change coming. Timing stinks, but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The early T-day storm probably gave unrealistic expectations which is usually the case anyway...but it just made them more unrealistic. It doesn't mean we haven't had a crappy December so far for snowfall, but that it probably feels like we've wasted a lot more winter than we really have.

dendrite Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'm not upset about it either. The only ones with anything to lose is really far NNE. I'm ready to melt this patchy glacial ice and start anew. If we could get those 50s into S NH early enough maybe I'd even wear shorts to our Christmas eve party.

Thaws happen every winter...sure the timing sucks but if it's not now it would come some other time. It's just amazing how often these Grinch storms happen. Last week of December is like a target for nature to piss on lol. No complaints here, I've only seen the grass once or twice I think since mid-November, and for the most part it's looked like deep winter. Just trying to enjoy the look for another couple days.

powderfreak Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 PF how much rain did the Euro give you I'll check...didn't look too hard at it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Looks like 0.9-1.0" or so. It's got a signal of SE upslope on the east side unfortunately...wouldn't surprise me if the west side had under 1/2" while this side is closer to an inch. However 1" of rain is nothing compared to last January's cutters haha. That's actually probably standard winter thaw material, nothing exceptional by any means.

Whineminster Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Oh I see, two different events...one the 28-29th and one near the 1st. EURO looks real amped and ugly for the New Year storm, but luckily that's a Day 10 prog. Dead ratter rainers rarely don't verify this season, but we hold limp weenies gently in hope for a firm.....snow signal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 With no cold air behind the storm ..stuff is going to really green up..55 degrees Xmas morning and 55-60 for the coastal plain Friday and Saturday. Just doesn't get any worse than that. Euro looks good withe late weekend system though we may have to worry about BL in spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Euro is more like 45-50 on Friday on the CP but yes the deep cold is lacking and with the SE ridge the late weekend storm has trended NW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Kart Mozart Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 This morning's euro shows little sign of a -epo, and no sign of a -nao. The cold air that does make it into the US over the next ten days is pedestrian at best. Maybe we get an SSW in January...and we'll have more luck in February.

CoastalWx Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Looking ahead, the -EPO tries to break down as a similar MJO wave that happened in late November to end that cold, may do the same again. So, increased PAC jet possible after the 5-10 or so. No sign of any real -NAO yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still be on record of a decent winter but it's just starting to get that smell. I think we'll know by 1/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
