Colder than pretty much anywhere in NH and VT.

I thought I saw a weenie flake about 7:30PM.  One flake or dust particle.  I’m not counting it.  Another cold early December night.  12/1-8 will certainly average solidly subnormal.  Next week looks above unless we can pull off a scooter high.

There will be ice fishing on some ponds in the interior of SNE by the weekend.

 00z GFS is brutal...almost entirely well above normal temps start at D5 with the exception of D11.

Pattern is lousy overall going forward. However, it is possible something could sneak in given the flow from Canada like some op runs suggest….but overall it’s lousy imo. Definitely prone to warmer solutions and cutters.

One good rainer next week unfortunately. After that doesn't look like much.

Maybe we get lucky with something after mid month..but til then, curtains 

[NorEastermass128]

Curtains for us on the coast for at least the next three weeks. Hate to see it.

Well... on the board with .75" yesterday late afternoon in Westfield. 19 degrees

[powderfreak]

Bottomed out at 6F.

Clear skies and locally decent valley snow cover.

No complaints so far...anything in December is gravy IMO.

This is the December 1999 analog from my forecast composite rearing its head....def some shades of 2022, as well.

Pretty much how I feel.

That isn't to imply we will get crushed, thereafter....just an honest assessment of how December looked to me. I do think January will be decent.

It’s terrible.

I just mean relative to expectation. I think most of us had a low bar for this month, aside from that week-long modeling keg party.

Didn’t think that at all.  Any December snow is good snow imo.

Jack dick in this pattern and then am awful look starting next week to last for awhile. Disappointing to say the least. Congrats to 1K getting a few inches out of this.

Could be? Possibly? We just don’t know.

Never a great sign to see 1998 and 1994 littering the CPC analog charts.

I'll be suprised if we don't flip back by early January, but then again, I have been suprised for the better part of the last 2 years.

Decent cold allowing the ski areas to get a jump on the season. I can remember going to Sunday River in the Early 90’s and them only having 16 runs open in Mid December; what we see is nothing new.

You get one cold week and then weeks of blowtorch. Today's winters in a nutshell
