Some of these latest model runs are definitely showing more snow for areas even outside of the Northwest hills. Never seen anything like this. I have, but I'll be 53 next week so I've seen a little weather lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 No matter how their map changes elsewhere, BOX has had Greenfield pinned at 6-8” for three days now. With current modeling I’m thinking probably closer to 10” here. I’ll buy gas and test the generator this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some strange things happen. I remember a storm when I was around 12:00 that my stepmom and I got stuck in in the Hudson valley near peekskill when she was visiting her parents. It wasn't forecasted, but we wind up getting like 8 or 9 in all at once. Crazy. It was like paste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolri_wx Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 You can see why the bust potential in both directions exists. It's warmth vs rates. Probably anywhere in the coastal plain that's close to freezing and gets under a heavy band risks switching over to very heavy wet snow as it brings the cold down to the surface. And at the same time, the warmth could win out and that's just all heavy rain. Challenging forecast! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Outside of the higher elevations of ORH/Berks etc....I cannot recall such a challenging forecast. Most especially inside 495. This is absurd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedWx Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 The one I remember most was in early March 2000. Working in Farmington, mix was forecast with an inch or so accums. I ended up driving back to Simsbury in heavy snow. We ended up with 17 inches... and a supply truck stuck in my driveway as a nice gift when I finally made it back. One of many like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have total snowfall maps for HREF, at least not for the price I want to pay ($0). First map is 12z Mon to 12x Tue, the second is 12z Tue to 12Z Wed.

I think there is a shadow (in terms of lighter snowfall amounts due to boundary layer), but the key is to avoid the inv trough look and get this to consolidate into more of a classic nor'easter. Some guidance has tried to do that, but not sure we will ever get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While not a similar system, I'm wondering if the degree of difficulty with forecasting this is similar to the October 2011 storm (someone mentioned it earlier, but for a different reason).
