I see the word "BOMBOGENESIS" in the forecast discussion for the weekend. Too far out to say, but some excitement exists for a Nor'easter.

That's what Gil Simmons was saying this morning. Let's hope it happens...and stays all snow.

Random tidbit: Gil Simmons is bigtime into a snowmobiling. You can see he gets pretty excited when there's snow on the horizon.

It's looking like a real Humdinger..I hope it takes a more southern track so the Poconos get some fresh Poe..

I'm trying not to get my hope up. Every time I go to Killington in January, I pick the thaw out week.

It's definitely not looking like the thawout week this year...bring your balaclava..no I'm not talking about the Greek dessert..that's Baklava..lol..

i think we just had thaw, it came a few weeks early

times two..but we'll still get a January thaw..but not until Root is back from Killington..

and I think we're going to get 1-20 inches of snow...maybe even 22 inches in favored upslope locations..that's my forecast and I'm sticking to it until we see what Powderfreak ScottyB has to say,,

I think you'll be correct, but I've come to believe I bring the thaw with me every year.

Models still going back and fourth, but snowstorm in the Big Cities Friday into Saturday. Looks like a 1-4 inch snow possible from D.C. to NYC. New England VT, NH and ME, it's a bigger storm with amounts up to a foot with wind. Could be a nasty storm with near blizzard conditions for parts of NH and Maine Saturday....interesting set up to say the least
