MJO812 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Next weekends storm is most likely done. The models had the first storm weaker and much further east which would drag the trough east to make room for the 2nd storm to come up the storm. Now the models are showing the 1st storm stronger and much further west which is bad for the 2nd storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t debating whether or not -10F in EMA has a greater impact than 6-12”. Expand You have no idea on impact. The biggest population center of New England (with a large homeless census) had under forecasted cold which resulted in a huge human and economic impact. 0 in EMA happens a lot. -10 once a generation. If you read the cold thread you’d see the impact. Snow rarely causes the misery cold does because it occurs ironically in moderately cold conditions. When that is an exception the impact is enormous (see Buffalo). Snow is almost always forecasted with enough time for the population to react. It’s almost never much of a problem 36 hours after it stops snowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also observed snow depth went from 10” to 30” exactly matching the “storm total”. This tells me it was estimated after the storm ended. All of the evidence I’ve seen points me to about 26-28” at ORH in that storm. But unfortunately that’s what goes into the climate record. Expand I didn't see this before I posted below. There's many accounts of +- 2 feet in '78 in areas of western CT and yet all the official measurements seem low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherWilly Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Rain is the only game in town, because it refuses to snow the few days when it's actually cold enough.

Go Kart Mozart Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 GFS looks whacky. The first storm heads through Detroit towards Buffalo, while the second forms over Davenport? I suppose there is a jet entrance there, but we have a ways to go before we throw in the towel. I would think a development much further to the south is possible. At least we have a Rockies Ridge and eastern trough going for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to not be aware that even in a horrific january pattern, they got over a foot. He keeps saying “the pattern will just continue to suck”….well yeah, that could totally be true but it still doesn’t mean you bet money it won’t snow again at 1000 feet over the interior…lol. Its not good pattern over the next 10-15 days but it could easily still snow a few inches. I also think there’s going to be a more favorable pattern later this month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw that, and how the winter futility has gone , pattern persistence and my view of what I see the pattern looking like thru Morch 31.. that is why I made the bet . Maybe it was foolish .. it’s not like I am rooting against snow. No one is a bigger snow lover than me .. I just see a favorable pattern thru end of Morch of more futility .
