| This is from my area forecast discussion and since I am east of Manchester and west of Willimantic my guess is that I will get 4-6", but who cares as there is no skiing near here. MODELS ARE SIGNALING AN OCEAN ENHANCED SNOW EVENT THANKS TO ONSHORE FLOW. COULD ALSO SEE SOME SNOW BANDING LATER SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MORNING MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS TO THE N OF NEW ENGLAND...SO CURRENT FORECAST SUGGESTS THAT MOST AREAS SHOULD SEE SNOW...WITH A MIX OR ALL RAIN ALONG THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH COAST...CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS. THE NEXT QUESTION IS...HOW MUCH SNOW? GIVEN THAT THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY FOR THIS EVENT...WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A PLOWABLE SNOW FOR AREAS EAST OF MANCHESTER TO WORCESTER TO WILLIMANTIC WITH THE CURRENT TRACK. THINKING THIS COULD BE CLOSE TO AN ADVISORY EVENT AT THIS TIME...BUT ALL MAY CHANGE WITH UPDATED MODEL RUNS. Advisory event would mean less than 6" would be expected.

| Accuweather is predicting 3-6" for our Sugarloaf trip, while Snowforecast says 7-10" I have seen forecasts of 6-12" for Coventry, so school will probably be out on monday.

| The NWS just ussued a Winter Storm Watch for Litchfield, I guess Hartford, Tolland and Windham counties will come online soon. Our NWS office is quite slow and lazy IMO to update their forecast products.
