We may have colder air with which to work, but the possible storm is still about a week away. We have to watch the track too, and hope it's not a hugger. The two primary tracks this winter seem to be too close to the coast or too far offshore lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You compared this winter to 2000 2001. I received 42 inches that year and this year we are up to 39.5 including the 2 inches so far today. Thanks for the accurate prediction.

bluewave Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The snow potential next week looks legit since we have a source of cold air and the second -NAO dip of the month. This is one of the biggest March -NAO drops after being so positive for DJF. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/pna/norm.nao.monthly.b5001.current.ascii.table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestHillWx Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I feel bad for the city folk, however, I have a solid snow pack; tack on the 3.5" I received this morning. With others reporting of the NAO dipping, combined with threats for snow, this has the potential to delay spring planting in my area for quite a while.

Moreso the final 5 years than the first (which were almost all pretty crummy snow seasons anyway.) 56-60 had 4 of 5 years with March the biggest snow month and the biggest single storm.

I got my 4 to 5 in Monmouth and up to 12 in E Suffolk , so the revised #s for number 3 worked. This one just took off to the N and E I don't want to say what # 4 is ( more widespread) or Forky will say all I do is call for snow. I will leave it at that Don.

North and West Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I have a work trip to Boston planned Monday afternoon through Tuesday afternoon. Any early indications yet on what the models are looking at for that time frame? Would be flying EWR to BOS and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ultimate result probably comes down to what the 50/50 low or vortex off Canada does. If it lifts out the storm is probably mostly an inland thread. If it really stays locked in it may be mostly to the south of here. Something in between it could be a major DCA-BOS event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'm just gonna call for suppression with the next one especially with the -NAO reasserting itself and locking a 50/50 in place. 100 percent ready for Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Wow the April 1982 blizzard is on this list?! I'm not aware of the March 1958 storm, was that a big one for us Chris? Interesting in March 1967 we had a near miss just like this one before we got the big one. I'm familiar with the March 1991 events we had two storms after the middle of March which is unusual. 3/26/06 I'm not familiar with lol. Also, did we have snow in April 1963 and April 1975- I'm not aware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Even in the wake of a significant Nor’easter, temps have found a way to over-perform just a bit. Currently 40 and rising, despite the sun going down. More than half of the snow that fell just hours ago is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sn0w Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Any thoughts on when the blocking/-NAO relax and we start seeing some warmer temps? Would love to see next week's storm pan out and then introduce some spring into the mix (mainly because of an early season golf trip down in Ocean City starting April 5th). Average high is right around 60 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
