TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Just think, in 5 days, it will still be 4 days out. Yup. Meh. Just another system that will dissapoitment down the line. Monday system looks like junk in this area. Just can't time anything right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I wouldn't sweat the clipper grinding to a pulp yet either. Sometimes you can call the bluff on the GFS, but I have no idea what bias it has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Scott do you think the inverted trough brings anything else but rain to Cape Cod? Maybe some snow on the upper Cape? Seems like it may warm up into U30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you can call the bluff on the GFS, but I have no idea what bias it has. To expand....I wouldn't sweat a single storm system yet...even the clipper is 7 days out. Anyone who gets hopes up for a system that far out and then melts down if it disappears can blame only themselves for being a sucker. The clipper is the first semi-interesting system out of the late January pattern...but it also has the most uphill battle I'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree though, good medicine to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesnichols89 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Damn, why does this always happen to us on the Outer Cape? Its not fair. We have had one winter where we received no snow and that was 97-98 in my life, this is a close second. I hate rain, I think its the most useless thing ever in the winter time, where the grass does not benefit from it at all, so what's the point. Anyways, radar picking up precipitation developing over Nantucket and moving NNW. Inverted trough looks more west based on the precipitation developing and where its moving.

JC-CT Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I wouldn't count a 336-360 hour GEFS run showing a storm and then losing it for 7-8 days as much of a signal for a storm. You could probably use that criteria for like 75% of all days in the winter. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Interesting run, at the end..the arctic hammer drops into the US. Good because we could sure use some more cold. I'd like to see car races on the CT river by first week of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWolf Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 There is a decent chance, that what this winter is remembered for, is alot of Cold(impressive Cold), with NO Snow. Wouldn't be a surprise at this point. Sure hope that doesn't become the legacy that we look back on Come April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2Otown_WX Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Anafrontal systems never work out. I am looking ahead to that Day 10 threat. That actually looks like it's legit. Only 20 more runs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 1979-1980 comes to mindI don't think that was a cold winter. You might be thinking of 1980-1981 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I don't think that was a cold winter. You might be thinking of 1980-1981 Oh, yeah. Christmas 1980...so 1980-1981. Was it a low snow winter (I seem to remember it like that, but I could be blending the 2) edit : 22.3" in 1980-1981 Cold and pretty snowless, but not the worst. 2 back to back dreadful years though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesun Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 For the record. The Blizzard of 1888 was anafrontal. They do work out. There is just not much room for error Anafrontal systems never work out. I am looking ahead to that Day 10 threat. That actually looks like it's legit. Only 20 more runs...

I was away in Florida for 3/8/05. I will always be kicking myself for missing that one because from how it was described it sounded pretty awesome.

TheCloser24 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 March 8, 2005 was a very dynamic storm. The day started mild with rain and by late morning the temperature crashed into the 20s with heavy snow and gusty winds. Many were caught off guard by the rapidly deteriorating road conditions caused by a flash freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
