The Official 3/16-17 Storm Discussion Thread

[Stephen]

The article headline on Fosters.com says it all:

Knock. Knock. Who's there? Snow. Snow who? Snow you thought winter was over.

HEAVY SNOW IS ON THE WAY FOR MUCH OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL MAINE TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY.


SNOW WILL LIKELY DEVELOP ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND EXTREME SOUTHWEST MAINE LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THE SNOW WILL SPREAD NORTH AND EAST REACHING THE MAINE MOUNTAINS AROUND MIDNIGHT.



SNOW WILL BECOME HEAVY ACROSS THE WARNING AREA TONIGHT AND THEN TAPER OFF TO SNOW SHOWERS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP OVER NORTH CAROLINA TODAY AND INTENSIFY AS IT MOVES NORTHEAST. THE LOW WILL PASS SOUTH OF CAPE COD EARLY WEDNESDAY.

IF THE LOW TRACKS A LITTLE CLOSER TO CAPE COD THE HEAVY SNOW AREA WILL REACH THE MOUNTAINS.

SNOW WILL BEGIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLY TONIGHT AND BECOME HEAVY
OVERNIGHT. THE SNOW WILL TAPER TO SNOW SHOWERS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

EXPECT TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS TO RANGE BETWEEN 8 TO 12 INCHES.

I will believe it when I see it!

They're already announcing early school dismissals here--even though the snow isn't even expected in this area until 2/3PM!
I won't complain...hopefully they're right and class tonight will be canceled. Then I can squeeze in at least one more time skiing this season! I'm crossing my fingers and thinking snow!!

Snow has just started in CT...

If anyone has some good comebacks for the snide remarks all the people with "Spring Fever" will be vomiting my way I'd love to hear them. I am so sick of "Winter Haters" crabbing about the snow and the cold I wish they'd all move to the Equator section of the planet.

The knock-knock joke is good, my kids will groan when I tell them.

Well well,

Now that the 1115 models have come out, it looks like we will not get as much as expected. I would say 12 inches for sunapee region is still possible, however, the jackpot will be portsmouth nh with 16. However, away from that region is not good. Not as much as anticipated unless the storm changes with out the models noticing.

Tell me about it! I'm so sick of my coworkers complaining about the snow--we've had barely any this season! Besides, it's only the middle of March. I'm not ready to give them spring yet...

I can't believe I'm saying this, but ...

I wish I wasn't going to Katahdin this weekend so I could play hookie from work and ski tomorrow!

[skiguide]

[Greg]

Post something here. Berkshire East is probably too far, eh?
