If the groundhog sees his shadow do we get 6 more weeks of actual winter or 6 more weeks of this winter? 

Got 4 weeks before that even happens… And then 6 more weeks of actual winter, or this dry and cold, gives 10 more weeks of whatever.   Gonna be a long haul.  Something will give.

Well nothing has verified yet, still got 3 days to go.  I actually hope it hold its own, and is correct on this.  That way maybe it can be trusted somewhat again.

Feb has a risk of being warm. That’s what I hear.

Yeah, the cold air will give when the next system comes.

Well Scott if that is the case, wondering what the "lowest" recorded snow fall in my city has ever been, sitting @ almost 2" total so far (avg. 50-55"+/-) 

Knitting class now/Red Sox bus getting ready...what a shit show lol

The cold is holding strong…and holding out next storm system lol. Back to the 80’s again.

I like to call spring training TJ season 

It wouldn’t be spring training if the Red Sox didn’t have half a dozen pitchers who are rehabbing from some injury from another team.

1,000+ and counting since my last 4+ inch snowfall. Might as well go for the record whatever it is

Sure the cold is holding for now, but there is no legit storm threat. When one actually comes to fruition we’ll see where the cold is.

Man, it’s been bad but we've reached the nadir when we’re basically giving up on January 3rd. I guess we can always give up on Thanksgiving next year.

Only 3 more full months until May

These last few winters have given us a good taste of what being a severe weenie in New England is like.

Oh there’s a legit storm…you(we) are just missing it as of todays runs. Just to your south is going to get a nice legit event.

Nah, we have reached the point where I legit saw someone from Wisconsin in a Discord server hyping up the hr600-814 0z GEFS for cutter season while a ridge forms on the east coast

Well Nina Feb, but maybe this one is different. I honestly don’t know and haven’t looked. 

[dendrite]

No one is legitimately giving up on winter on 1/3. lol

Nope.  Pretty mundane.  
the wind last night was more than I expected though.

Pathetic cold snap.. highs slightly below average in the peak cold of climo maybe a day or two of 20s down here with lows  in the teens. 

[dendrite]

Idk…looks like sustained seasonable cold for a week+…nothing extreme though. It’s more like maritime arctic cold (or at least taint) wrapping around our way from the block.

Yeah I mean after the last 2 Jan's it's a pretty  solid stretch of sustained winter like cold. It would be a great stretch if we had a snowpack to maintain. 

Does look colder across NNE at times, especially for the upslope areas. Lots of deep mixing and downsloping on this side of the terrain.

But if you think about it, we haven't had a cold snap that was sustained for over a week in quite some time. We would have a couple of days of real cold and then back to 50. So, in essence, we are getting a true winter blast... We're just not having the snow with it. There's no way we're going to go snowless through the rest of the winter. I'm sure of that.

Obviously I meant for our back yards.

Yeah prob a lot of -6 to -8 type days. Average highs in SNE are in the low to mid 30s and a lot of days are going to be in the 20s for highs. 
 

Not arctic cold but somewhat BN. That’s probably ideal though if you aren’t going to snow…it freezes all the ponds and keeps skiing in solid shape for the winter sports people while also not utterly destroying our heating bills and making it overwhelmingly uncomfortable outside. 

[CoastalWx]

Hopefully the block strengthens and we can wrap in WAA precip from the northeast. Sorry Tamarack.
