Tracking Jan 7 coastal storm. Lingering compression/flow velocity has not lent to consensus, but it seems at 30 hours out.. finally?

Anyone monitoring Rap? Is it still Rapping?

21z and 22z runs have really cut back and pushed east.. still like 3-5" in CT at 10:1

It has subdued somewhat. It’s still good but not insane like earlier.

This is true. However, if it's because you are eliminating potential candidates because of their presumed "poor millennial work ethic" then that's textbook 'reverse' age discrimination. Very hard to enforce though.

pretty much all members jumped west at 18z

zonked euro time. it is off hour, after all

[George001]

What would happen if the eastern low gets absorbed by the western low as a result of the trough sharpening up and going negatively tilted earlier then expected, causing the bigger low to the west to eat the smaller one?

If all globals were weak then I’d be inclined to toss a rogue meso solution or two but that’s not the case…

Is that a realistic possibility if the eastern low is absorbed by the western one, causing the western low to not only become dominant but to drastically strengthen?

So many models jump west and crush and mix Tblizz and other jump east and don’t . Still not agreeing 

[HIPPYVALLEY]

WTF?  All the school districts around here have already canceled for tomorrow.

We were already marginally on the fringe of this system. If this nowcasts East, it’s going to be laughable that they canceled for an inch or two.

Yeah--it's a fascinating history of the lost towns of the Quabbin:  Dana, Greenwich, Enfield and Prescott.  I've read a few books on the history of it--really should be a movie.   Not a Deliverance movie--though that had to do with drowning a town, too.

didn't they do that for candlewood lake too? I remember stories when I was a kid and we had a boat slip ther, that there was villages between New Milford and danbury that were under, I thought maybe urban legend... anyway, my buddy in Baker WV says it's poundtown there right now, easy 1/4 sm vis or less, expecting 4-8 with a WSW there, KY was gridlocked today, just like VA last week, of course blamed on nonsense, but weather don't stop

Used to fish there a lot,  some remains of buildings are still visible, there's an island where a house was and the only thing left is the chimney, beautiful place, thinking of getting another boat and start fishing out there again. Good snow spot too.

The only building left now is the stone club house for the golf course on one of the islands out of Gate 43. Was a popular spot during prohibition. This is a decent watch.

I figured they would be closing up quickly with the number of teachers out and lack of subs. My wife's still hasn't yet despite everyone around them being closed and they are beyond short-staffed.

how many times that's happened since I left school, I remember going to school and seeing plows, now the hint of flakes has them cancel.. although a few years ago, there was unexpected high bust and busses with kids got stuck all over Waterbury on some greasy snow, that was embarrassing for them, catch 22 in that respect

True. And we're as big as we want to be at this point anyway. I really don't trust the next couple years. Back to weather...Is that convection backing down off the coast?

The rap cut backs are concerning

18z GFS bufkit at BDL. Illustrates beautifully what kinda of ratios may be able to be maximized
