WinterWxLuvr Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I figured what the heck, since nobody had started one. As for this event, I wouldn't mind seeing this same type around the first of January. Could have been interesting if it were colder. Maybe a high in the right spot, get a little CAD going. Anyway, maybe we'll have something to post on soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2010 extreme Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 If this trend continues with storms cutting west of the blue ridge and the help of a little cad, then MA will be in for some good ice storms this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanVA Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 If only features on the GFS would move forward in time; looks like Snowshoe won't stand a chance at opening on the 24th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Wow, just looked at the radar for the first time in a couple of hours.

Amped Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Take a look at what's to the west even more! Very exciting considering it's mid-late November! That second squall line has a history. I see 2-3mb pressure bumps in some of the PA and wv stations. Looks to be headed for HGR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 It has an odd "reverse bow" look to it. Strange? Yes a concave bow echo is strange. It is starting to pop out now though. I'll see what damage it caused tomorrow at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
