Any estimates on when the storm will start and end? I was thinking of driving up from NYC on Wednesday too but I think it might be better to leave early in the am on Thurs...

Here's a sight for sore eyes. 7 day accumulation. use 10-12" snow-qpf equivalent. What's that? A 2.7 QPF?

Unfortunately that storm for St. Patricks Day is a damn southern storm and not supposed to do much up north but it sure could mess up work for me here at the Jersey Shore if IT SNOWS ON THE TWO DAYS I'M SUPPOSED TO WORK THAT WEEK :sadwalk: :thumbdown:

I'm praying that it goes NORTH because I have plans to ski at Hunter the Wed/Thursday after on the 19-20. I'm hoping we are done with these southern storms and it all goes NORTH to the mountains like it's supposed to!

Leaving early in the morning (Mon.) for a week in VT. I think I'll be well positioned. Hoping for a few inches or more here & there before the possible storm Wed. night. Forecast looks great with possible snow almost everyday for the week.

A minute from the Alta exit off the I-15!
Looks like a soaker for the CT and eastern MA hills. Berkshire and Cats might make it out alive. Prime ski country looking good. I'd like to see Jay get a good 2ft outta this one. The NEK has certainly struggled this season.

The Canadian model has generally kicked the Euro's ass this winter, so I'd probably go with that were I a betting man. Here's what it shows for the storm (I didn't bother running the panels before/after these, but you can add another inch or two more snow)

Add it all up, includind the pre/post flullies etc... and you're probably looking at 8" to 10" for most of ski country.

Magic Thursday! Need to leave a solid hour earlier though. Travel will suck. This could ruin the Berkshires, saw a model of over an inch of rain before finishing up as 4-6" of snow.
