I'm with you. I don't want to be tracking snow right now. I just want warmer/nicer weather. That tease we had earlier in the month propelled my brain right to warmer weather. If we didn't have that I may be more inclined to hope this could turn into a crushing...even for me :lol:

Good news is after that storm next week all guidance has big pig east coast ridge and warmth . Would be early taste of summer for a few days and timed perfectly for the eclipse.

Boy it would be nice if you were correct for once.

Torch part two is coming!

Friday and Beyond...

Early look into the long range synoptic pattern shows a shift away
from the constant deluge of wet weather we have seen over the last
month. Too early for specifics, but CPC diagnoses higher than normal
chances for drier and warmer conditions the second week of April and
beyond.

Kevin's exuberance aside for moment ...

There has been a very abrupt changing of the guard signaled for quite some time amid all guidance, that sets in as this storm in the nearer term is exiting.  Really quite abrupt as it is leaving.   It's readily identifiable just looking at the actualized/operational model paintings from April 7/8 ... 11th.  Not always but uuuusuauly, when the extended range operational models turn the paint brush with the colors provided by the teleconnection, that's higher than normal confidence for given extended range -

There's literally about a day's worth of transition between the storm and the arrival of 60+ air.  By the 9th 70+ F air would thermodynamic supported in the EPS layout with +7 to +10C 850 mb air mass sprawling across the lower Lakes and NE.  It's ways out out so these synoptic metrics will be tinkered with ... but the general continental synoptic evolution through that period has been unusually stable in the guidance, suggesting a few days of d-slope/W wind transporting anomalous 850 mb thermal layout.

I mentioned this a several days ago that the 2nd week of April appeared to be big green-up acceleration week ... I mean it's been in the advanced telecon, and since .. .the emergent model layouts with just as much consistency really as this storm in the foreground. 

interesting... it's like a wholesale 'climate couplet' and we emerge even for the first 10 days of the month.

27 years ago. Still the all timer for me in a variety of ways. That feeling won't ever be replaced.

Not so much here…many others much better than 4/1/97 for CT folks. But it was a good event nonetheless here…just nothing historic.

You guys got about 8-12 or so? I know NE CT did well.

This 13 year old weenie wrote an article about it (that no one asked for) in my middle school newspaper. Definitely a top 5'er for me...but I know it was even more epic further north near you. I still have a distinct memory of wearing shorts/tshirt and playing bball with my cousins in Cambridge a couple days prior with temps in the 70's.

3 top 10 lowest snowfall seasons during the 2020s so far. Their new average for the 2020s so far is only 26.1 which is similar to what NYC averaged during earlier decades. So about 50% of what they averaged during the 2010s. Boston had 100” in only 39 days back in 2015. That 39 day total is higher than their total snowfall since January 2021 to March 2024.
