This one should be widespread impact IMO. I don’t pay much attention elsewhere either, but the GP probably is checked out. I can’t remember the last time we had a setup like this meaning rapid snow melt coupled with a potential flash flood event. Wind is a whole other story obviously with some uncertainty but hydro is a lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind is a whole other story obviously with some uncertainty but hydro is a lock. Yeah I can't remember something like this either. Right on the heels of a massive snow event and in a situation where the ground is already extremely saturated. I am becoming more concerned with the wind potential. The sustained winds are going to be super impressive, but we'll have a 3-5 hour window where I think we get widespread 40-60 mph wind gusts. We'll be dealing with widespread river/stream flooding, poor drainage/low lying flooding, and widespread power outages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be flippant, but didn't we deal with exactly this in the Dec 17-18, 2023 storm a few weeks back? Or are you talking more IMBY? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I am really torn on...bufkit soundings are largely unimpressive. But NBM is very bullish with the wind potential. My concern with this event is that bufkit is underplaying the wind potential because it tends to struggle with the mixing aspect when it's spitting out heavy rain. I think if we do get temps into the lower 50's and dews at least upper 40's it's game on for wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you thinking winds are likely to be more apt to verify with this one? Not looking forward to that. Already got the text from Eversource saying prepare for outages...

Agreed, @dendrite please pin this thread. It keeps getting lost in the other pinned threads and it's a bit noisy on the brain trying to find this with some super long thread titles mixed in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already got the text from Eversource saying prepare for outages... I'm thinking the sustained nature of the winds is what will be most impressive (in the 20-30+ mph range). The wind gust potential I am a bit torn on, but siding to the idea that we will see a few hour period where gusts get 50-60 across the entire region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flood threat looks higher end to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 8 minutes ago, HoarfrostHubb said: GFS has widespread 2-3" of qpf Euro says similar We have 9" pack with ~1" LE and the current thoughts from GYX suggest that the first inch will be white. Thursday morning we might see about the same depth as before, but with twice the LE. Of course, if the snow was followed by 2-3" RA at 50°, everything goes downriver and we get another Dec 18, though with less wind. Highly unlikely. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I think I'd lop a few off those clowns. There's a couple hours there that look like rain on the soundings and the ptype maps are showing snow/mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at least it isn't 100% rain on the models. I just want to keep the rain away until around 9PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
