Hey man ...  I've said before, I'll say it again...

First it gets warm, then it get cold:                                            boom

Yesterday and today actually reminded me a bit of the day before the 3/31-4/1, 1997 storm...just a bit windier than back then. Of course.... different pattern and time of year. 

We did get into the 60s about a week before the January 2005 blizzard. That month was Jekyll and Hyde.

I know this Kuchera derived clown map should not be taken (even near) to face value but it's fun to look at.  18Z GFS through Sunday AM

Been a while since a 3footer.  Congrats dendrite!   Seriously though how would we get that much qpf?  Thought it was fast flow and block not in place yet

That's total accumulation through 162, not from the weekend.    Or maybe I'm misreading it.

I think there is the potential for the 15/16th system to come more southward with time, models are still up in the air with the pattern aloft across EPO/NAO regions, this will fluctuate for the next 24-36 hours.  This will have a major impact on the next storm period.  I am waiting to see if the models come into agreement on the synoptic pattern before I worry about the surface details.

This 72-96 hour event has legs for SNE too.  Model teleconnections show the strong potential for a mini collaboration between the NAO and PNA regions heading to a -NAO/+PNA couplet in this 15/16th period.  The models all show a strong dip in the NAO and a strong rise in the PNA.  There is a strong possibility that the rise and drop in the teleconnections have a bigger role in the storms intensity/location/duration for areas above 40N latitude east of 75 west longitude.  A lot of people believe that the transition phases could have more impact on SNE than the Mid-Atlantic and Northern New England regions.  Since during strong -NAO patterns, the Mid-Atlantic gets the storms, while a weaker -NAO to neutral stage allows SNE to get in on the goods.  However, with a cooperating PNA pattern in the western CONUS this could provide a better chance for snow in the upcoming week ahead.  Just a thought.
