tamarack Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 10 hours ago, powderfreak said: Makes sense a little bit, but in what world would a forecaster term 18”+ snowfall in a period as “snow showers?” It happens a lot out there. I guess the question is why would you say snow showers at 2-4” accumulation and then use the same at 24-36” in a given period? What differentiates them? The forecast posted above has 25-31 then 48-54 for today-tonight. The 24-hour record (76" IIRC) might be in danger. Good news for those concerned about peaches and pears and what not. Unless an early spring includes another mid-May freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 47 minutes ago, tamarack said: I've seen 0.3" ice in early April - once, on Mile Hill 400' higher than my location - but 3/4" that late is amazing. The vast majority of Northeast ice storms I can recall were much earlier in the cold season: Nov 1921: mostly in New England Jan 8-9, 1953: The hilly country N and W from NYC (>1" ice at our NNJ home) Dec 11-12, 1970: NNJ, 3/4" ice Dec 17-18, 1973: Major damage W CT/MA Dec 13-14, 1983: 3/4-1" N. Maine Jan 8-9, 1998: 1.5-2.5" ice, terrible (also Jan 6-7 in PQ) Dec 11-12, 2008: 2" ice? Centered in ORH area Jan 1994? Maybe the 18th as that cold (in Gardiner, the light tower event) storm had a strong warm tongue - 5° at home, 40s with SE gales at RKD. I'm sure there are others. It’s tough to do anywhere in Napril but especially the CT shore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 1 hour ago, RUNNAWAYICEBERG said: Man. What a blocky and stormy month unfolding, especially 10th onward. Late month even goes weeniesh. Fighting climo at that point though but the interior should stand down and standby. Well color me surprised lol…We tried to tell ‘em…nobody wanted to hear it. It’s over, and Spring is here is all you hear. Unfortunately, that never happens especially in March in SNE, except for March of 2012(the unicorn), but we always knew that wasn’t happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t look all out crappy either but definitely not an ideal warm spring pattern. Whatever weather we desire lately, mother nature has a way of handing us the shaft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynwx99 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 this ain’t bad… blocked flow to the north, a 50/50 in place, and strong HP to the north to allow colder air to drain in. again, something to keep an eye on, especially away from the immediate coast 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Pretty strong sig on the GEFS for 8 days out. EPS has a pretty good sig too but it’s a little delayed and slightly different evolution. The GEFS look is definitely more likely to be snow. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EPS has a pretty good sig too but it’s a little delayed and slightly different evolution. The GEFS look is definitely more likely to be snow. It's been there since the time period in question first emerged through the outer 'coherency horizon' Like 15 days out lol. This particular 12z cycle is actually less than previous, but at this range? -that's allowed. I'm not dubious of the signal, per se. I am however leery about background seasonal change. There have been plenty of significant storms with frigid cold and wind hauling talcum powder ...all the way to Easter. If we are going to be lucidly rational about our chances here, however ...for every week that goes by climatology lowers those odds. But, I feel ( probably not a shared vibe, okay - ) like our climate has shifted shorter. Springs are earlier. It's like March 1 2024 is March 20th 1997. I was thinking that last week, and then some of these individual runs kind of started looking like April 1 back whence. I was like, 'no shit' ...Even if only hinted it's supporting my point. Anyway, that's conjecture. I mentioned a couple days ago that this was a candidate for holding off on a thread until perhaps 5 days. I don't hate the telecon spread for this. I just don't like the climate smear/seasonality shifting shit, combined with the sun modulating b-c fields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
