Well...seein' as we must be subjective in our praise... That depends how we define "dud" ... Not that anyone asked, but part of me can't even get into that; like mathematically, my mind won't get there. Because that sector of my intelligence can't seem to find the course that doesn't lead completely off a pointless cliff.. In fact, this whole labeling and grading winter seasons for that matter; like they were recalcitrant adolescents or something, that were naughty because they didn't snow so they get a brown star on their report card... That'll teach 'em. It's a all venturing into weird enigma in the first place. buuuut, the hypocrisy in me is one that can't let go of the romanticism, and equally senses the morbid pleasure in doing so.. hmm. as well as an outright lust for those types of dystopian forces that can and sometimes do cut through human presumption and entitlements. like... starring BIG tsunamis! Later on, we'll venture out into the timeless parable, 'frozen mitten sticks out of early March snow bank' Followed by the award winning Comet impact... Yes, it's lineup that shatters modern human perception I dunno - what's a dud? no snow at all... ? I think the 'snowlessiest' season ever must have seen a flurry here or there. Plus, it's relative to climo zone, too. I don't think this year qualifies as a dud in my subjective opinion. It's not earning any extra-credit if going by that secondary paragraph - no.

Well I think as far as big storms go...I'd rather have them occur in the SST min time. If you are going to have strong NE flow, it would make sense to have it occur when the waters are coldest. We have had some big Jan blockbusters too. I'm sort of reaching here....but I guess you could say Feb is certainly favored in Nino years as we tend to see the mid to later half of winter during Nino years show a tendency for +PNA.

Baroclinic Zone Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Need to watch that confluence to the N. On the 12z GFS a lobe of vorticity rotates S out of the Hudson Bay Area and lowers heights across the northeast just as the storm starts to develop over the southern tier. If that lifts out sooner we should see the GFS shift N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR Airglow Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 There's a non-insignificant number of GEFS members that are really amped up with wave 2 - would bring snow up into NNE and flip the coastline verbatim. Just another possible solution and shows how much uncertianty there still is and how small changes in the timing of the features can make a big impact.

CoastalWx Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Euro is a light even Friday and then grazes James with wave 2. It's too bad we can't get that PV diving into the lakes region involved. Still need to watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 For the few of us up in Dendriteland and points north and east the 12Z Euro continues to trend colder for tomorrow nights system. Some snow down to about Concord NH. 2-3" up here in Northern Lakes Region of NH. 6-10" for the Whites and points north and east.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
