WxWatcher007 Posted Saturday at 07:19 AM Share Posted Saturday at 07:19 AM There’s been a varying signal for some system to move into New England around Christmas for several days. The signal is better defined inside 84 hours now, with a clipper now likely to cross the region Christmas Eve rather than Christmas. The trend has been a slightly sharper system, with the possibility of region wide light snow. The best qpf looks focused in CNE and NNE. With an excellent antecedent airmass (Euro colder than GFS) and a little moisture, many could see measurable snow right before the Christmas holiday. Perhaps enough for an official white Christmas. Discuss. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted Saturday at 01:06 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:06 PM Ensembles have solid probs of 1-2” in SNE . Timing seems to have sped up some with it coming in the wee hours of Monday night into Tuesday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wokeupthisam Posted Saturday at 01:15 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:15 PM They call it a Clipper… clipper, faster than lightning, Few storms you see, are faster than he, And we know the Clipper’s just a vort in the dry air, Flying by here, on it’s way to the sea Snow lovers hope each Clipper they see, Will stall and grab moisture, when it reaches the sea But that trick’s a rare one, and much more likely No one will see, more than a coating to three. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted Saturday at 02:05 PM Share Posted Saturday at 02:05 PM Looks more like a NNE event given the track and forcing…would like to see it come south more. It’s more of a glorified quick cold front in SNE on the gfs and ec right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying 1-2” is very possible I’ll take under 2” except maybe the Berks. You’ll probably have to ratio your way to 1” EOR, but hopefully there’s at least a wintry appeal for all on Xmas eve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been a long long time of regional white Xmas. As our president DJT says.. many, many years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Track has seemed pretty consistent the last few days but maybe we can get a modest south/more juicy trend going. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thanks. SNE has theirs. The guidance on this has been consistent, including both the track and the lack of moisture. I'm just hoping for some mood flakes and maybe a coating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx2fish Posted Saturday at 03:01 PM Share Posted Saturday at 03:01 PM Nam looks very uninspiring. Would be nice if we could get this up to a 1/10" or more leq for all, but thay might be tough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a shame this couldn’t pop off the Delmarva and blow up to give us all something more significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted Saturday at 03:09 PM Share Posted Saturday at 03:09 PM Trajectory of this one thru the delmarva would yield 0 snow up here as it heads ENE, Pretty dry clipper with not a whole lot of moisture to work with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
