The Official 3/27 - 3/28 Storm Discussion Thread

The NWS is predicting a snowstorm along and south of I-90 for thursday night and friday. At this point it does not look like the ski areas further north will benefit much from this storm.

I am hearing 4-8" of heavy wet snow possible along I-90

Nice, I hadn't lookd at the forecast. Looks like 3" in southern NH predicted so far.

Of course, I also had my hopes up when last night there was a solid inch and it was belching snow LAST night, and I wake up to that same inch. Looks like it snowed more, then went to rain this morning, and washed half of the snow away. *pout*

We had a coating of snow around 11:30pm last night, but it's gone now with sunshine and 43F.

I would take this map with a grain of salt because the latest models push the snow even further south, but here is an early snowmap:

Maybe a final pow bump session Friday night at Sundown?

If we do get snow in Northern Connecticut chances are high for it to be a very wet snowfall.

Yes indeed, though I wish we could get such a snowfall in Maine to cover up all of the ice in the woods.
