1/7 Storm Discussion Thread

[UVSHTSTRM]

Well if this weeks/weekend storm doesn't pan out for many in the NE, well we always have this guys take on next week. As I have said on other sites, I will believe it when I see it. Getting one storm right 36 hours in advance is tough enough, but two a week to a week and a half out, thats wishful thinking.

The problem with most weather forecasters is the more they hype the storm, the less we tend to get, at least here in the central Dacs. Had to crackup though at Jay Peaks daily snow reports this week. On 1/4 they had 0" in the past 48 hrs, 1/5 showed 3" past 48 hrs, today, 1/6 they say they had 8-10' in the past 24 hrs and now their total for the past 48 hrs is now 19". Gotta love those accurate snow totals, not just the Peak but they all do it. Lets see 3+8= 19 or 3+10=19. Wish I could get paid based on their formula. Back to snow, not even enough on the ground to X-country on a golf course now. Wish just once the weather guys would miss on the low side for a change.

??? Their site says 13", maybe they read your post and revised it?

Happen to have one of those from Maine? or is their wx station not that advanced--- It looks like the bottom graphic for VT was from the last storm (dated 12/27)

Bill, the second map showing Northern VT hasn't been updated since Dec 27th. :smash:

NOAA is forecasting 4"-9" of snow for Friday and Friday night for the Mount Snow area. This doesn't include any Saturday snow ..

Might be an interesting drive up tomorrow.

Ha! Ha! too rushed. I think the most snow will be in the cats.

Maine has not updated theirs either. WFO's don't update their maps if they don't expect anything. They also don't expect dweebs like me to direct link to the image.

BTW, Albany WFO which covers the Berks and so VT. does not do this map. lame, lame, lame!

For fun, you can check out my page-o-links. it will keep you busy for days.

Remember, this is my private page. I make no promises on either accuracy of the links or any time frame to fix bugs. You get what you pay for! That said, it's helped me find pow days several times.

Kind of hoping for enough scare here to get a snow day from school so we can head up early!

Berkshire East might get some snow.... never been there, might be good...

 

[lerops]

Plattekill is claiming they got 9'' from lake effect yesterday. Tickets are $15 for the first 100 people tomorrow.

3-6" in CT, 4-8" in SoVT. Cool.

 

[ERJ-145CA]

They're saying 1" - 3" here now, kind of a bummer, I was hoping for more. So far about 3/4".

 

[gmcunni]

dusting in S CT. no school today.

looking out the window i don't even think it is snowing right now.

Leaning toward the Beast myself. Gonna keep an eye on the weather. If it's not bad tonight I may drive up to Mt. Snow. If I have to do a day trip I'm thinking the Beast. Of course where the snow hits will determine everything...........................................
