Typhoon Tip Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Well in any event the term stemwinder in deference to deep Lows has been around in NCEP and AFDs since the mid-1990s. I /we did not make that up so it is what it is and the metaphor was always clear clear from the get go so not sure what to tell you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 If it was the scenario that occurred here that occurred where you guys were ... it wasn't technically a dry slot it was just extremely dry air being infected into the northern arc of the CCB.

Expand April 1-2 2001 wasn't a big wind event...just a long duration 2 ft snow event over 3 days. This would be more similar to the event that sunk the Ocean Ranger Oil Rig on the evening of Feb 14th, 1987 and caused a major blizzard in the city, but had some mixing during.

ice1972 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 If it weren't for what came after Boxing Day 2010 - Jan 2011 - I would have toastered a long time ago......30" snowpack by the first week of February......and then it just shut off.....but it was fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 A monster storm is in low confidence for next Wednesday. A rain to heavy snow threat for sure. Windy conditions could lead to a back end blizzard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Airmass behind frontal passage and passage of explosive deepening low pressure center that heads in Nova Scotia as a sub 960mb low, could lead to gusts past 55mph and snowfall amounts of 6"+. Stay Tuned, with polar vortex influence there is the potential this explosive storm tracks westward over the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Scott I find the explosive nature of the GFS and NAVGEM for the Wednesday storm as alarming as normally biased progressive models are actually the two most amped up model runs for this system.
