ineedsnow Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 The ground is already covered still got over an inch and had two good squalls so far this morning The ground will be snow-covered and that's all anyone really cares about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 The ground is already covered still got over an inch and had two good squalls so far this morning There's a nice cover here in the valley - better than anything and more than at my house which is unusual. I'd prefer it the other way, but what can you do! It will be nice if we can add some powdery cover in time for Wednesday. I'm looking forward to the cold.

ORH_wxman Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Far SE MA, and CC and south coast of RI could still get an inch or two out of this. There's some inverted trough potential too...not much, but hey, something is better than nothing if you like snow and hate bare ground when temps are frigid.

RGEM extends a little finger or spoke up twds E LI and SE CT I actually hadn't even looked at the RGEM model yet when I posted that, but you are right it does show that looking at it now. It also shows a random stripe from Essex county MA into S NH...but that type of stuff is going to look different probably each run. But I'd def look for a bit of enhancement in SE areas.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Euro had that finger too, I think a trace to half inch will cover it here and I mostly just expect some light snow showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed. I suppose it will be good if at least some are able to cash in on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I even like Friday's potential better for the Cape and Islands than the Tuesday clipper. The Friday system brings 3" of snow to us. Mainly OES contribution on Southwest winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 talk to me... Pretty strong arctic boundary to move thru with a little more moisture, Probably some light snows with some heavier squalls right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahk_webstah Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Well every once in a while we get a little storm on an arctic front Pretty strong arctic boundary to move thru with a little more moisture, Probably some light snows with some heavier squalls right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 18z NAM looked too far south to bring anything more than a trace of snow to Cape and Islands, but now looking at hour 18 through 21, its looks like it would bring more to the region. Also why isn't the inverted trough moving south with the clipper low? Would they move in tandem? Or is it due to the connection between the low over the Lakes and the low offshore?

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 NAM wants to develop the clipper redevelopment closer to the coastline, developing northeasterly inflow into the region. THis could mean the difference between a trace and a few inches. Let's see what the GFS says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 QPF is paltry, but just pay attention to the flow at the surface, we could get some ocean enhancement. Although the NAM is the only model showing that right now. Any ideas on what the EURO was showing in terms of snowfall for the region? I can only see the free site maps and they are 24 hours apart.

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Due to the shortwave shredding out somewhat through a more compressed flow over the Northeastern US, the redevelopment process is slower as modeled and therefore we can't get any healthy QPF into the region. This can change within 21 hours, but again that is near 2% chance of happening, models are pretty good within 48 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 James I'd just plan on some flurries or light snow showers with a trace or 1/2" possible. I think here I'll barely see a dusting. This is a dead ratter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesnichols89 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Not until it happens will I give up on a chance for snow. I think this can happen to be a big bust if water vapor imagery serves me right, I think WV imagery shows this being a benchmark low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a dead ratter. Yup. Start low, and increase from there, instead of the other way around which seems to happen more times than not around here. Keep expectations low, and then be surprised if the end result is more than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
