Looks here like what Scott was saying ... impressions like a kink low on a front.  

There's some deep members here ... but it also could be proximity to the pressure well associated with that deep maritime vortex just along the NE edge of this frame... I'd also caution that numerical support for a system on the 9th-10th is waning.  Seems like a candidate for losing amplitude as it nears

The EURO-AI already completely lost it

Did you know? NYC is the new Fort Kent, Maine. Snows till Memorial Day there

Fort Kent season-stretcher frozen precip during our time there (1/1/76-10/25/85).  Chronological:

Sept 14, 1977:  NE storm, slush in town, 1-2" >1000' near Allagash
June 9, 1980:  Flurries enough to almost cover the lawn, 1-2" west of Allagash.
July 3, 1982:  Showers and 30s at 600', probable slush at 970'
Aug 26, 1982:  Slushy flakes at 970'

Other events before/after our tenure:
June 17, 1964: 3" at Seven islands camp across the border from St.-Pamphile, PQ.
SEPT 30, 1991:  3" at CAR, up to 5 on the hills around Fort Kent.

I don't see this March being an atypical New England March. We're going to have mild periods (perhaps even unseasonably warm for a day or two at a time) but we'll also have our share of colder periods. Looks like we could be dealing with a pretty progressive weather pattern heading into March...but again, not totally uncommon for March.

Any chance we sneak in some convection?

I think we went like 4+ seasons without a benchmark track 1988-89 through 1991-92.  :lol:

Couldn’t freaking buy a storm those years. 

There was an Alberta Clipper in Feb of 1990 that put down about ten inches of snow in central CT with some redevelopment off the NJ Coast then headed east. That's about as close as we came.

Dec ‘92 is the one that really broke the drought. Though it was frustrating along the coast. 

That was epic in your hood (orh). I remember the flags blowing straight out from the East that Thursday night when it began. Something I hadn't seen in some time
