From NOAA:

LATE THIS COMING WEEKEND OR EARLY NEXT WEEK: THERE IS THE POSSIBLITY
WE WILL BE FEELING THE FIRST INFLUENCE OF WHAT MAY BECOME A LARGE
STRONG SLOW MOVING COASTAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. THE POSSIBLITY OF
THIS IS ONLY ABOUT 30 PERCENT AT THIS TIME WITH ITS ARRIVAL DATE EVEN
MORE IN DOUBT. WE PREFER ANOTHER DAY OR 2 OF MODEL CONFIRMATION
BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN THE LIKELIHOOD OF ANOTHER FORMIDABLE SYSTEM. FOR
THOSE WHO NEED TO PLAN THESE CONSIDERATIONS...IT MAY BE WORTHWHILE TO
CHECK BACK WEDNESDAY FOR CONTINUITY ON THE POSSIBLITY.

Read that as "Uhmmm, maybe."

Slow and low that is the tempo....

Glad to hear you had a great time!

Remember... There are NO friends on a POW day....

The other thing about this compared to this past weekends storm is this one is what is known as a 'Double Barrel" Low. A Low will form off the Carolina coast shoot up the Eastern Seaboard followed by another Low forming off the VA coast. The warmer air will penetrate along the coast creating snow/ice/rain events along the immediate coast while N and W of the the Low gets the jackpot. These Lows shoot right into the Gulf of Maine and New England ski areas get walloped. It's still too early to predict models are changing every 12hrs but some of them are in agreement with the DB scenario for Sun/Mon. Cross your fingers.

THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE OF A SIGNIFICANT SLOW MOVING COASTAL STORM
NEXT WEEK. THE POSSIBLITY HAS INCREASED TO 50 PERCENT. THIS SYSTEM
COULD BE FORMIDABLE. FOR THOSE WHO NEED TO PLAN THESE
CONSIDERATIONS...THIS STORM COULD BRING SUBSTANTIAL PRECIPITATION AND
WIND TO PARTS OF THE REGION.


Setting up for a mid-week blow, it looks like. Today's snow may put Boston of teh 110 year old January record. Yowza!

I concur. Having 3' of snow in the flatlands does the ski areas no good except to bring people north because they 'perceive' that there is snow in the mtns.

With the weather pattern being as it is, I guess I am happy that we do have passes to Pat's as opposed to a more northern locale.
