NWS 2016 / 2017 Winter forecast!

[dlague]

Nice thing about this storm - followed by at least a week and a half of cold days (in the 30's of less) and then it will not be blow torch (40's).

like the blow torch in Colorado now.

HEY DAVE!

This is love! I just mention how lucky you guys will be with a decent storm and followed by cold weather and somehow I must of hurt some ones feelings!

It will be warm on the front range but not at elevation. In the mountains it will get above freezing but nothing too scary.

Blow torch here? Ya if that is what this looks like from yesterday

I keep wondering why we bother paying for cable anymore.

I haven't paid for cable tv in years. I don't miss it one bit.

I booked a room in Lake Placid for this weekend based on the net western trend of the 00z and 12z model suites. Ballsy move on my part and I hope I'm right, but because of the combo of the NCAA ECAC hockey championships & this storm, there wasnt much lodging availability left as of this afternoon. Now I wait and see whether I'll be skiing on ice (if it slides east) or 10" to 20" of powder if I'm right and this western trend is legit. Fingers crossed.

^looks like you nailed it. further inland track should have WF covered well

No cable here. Local news is on via rabbit ears in the attic.

NWS Albany is calling for just under two feet in SoVT. Already excited for the weekend!

Vermont now looks better than NY based on NWS probabilistic forecast. 3 feet is now realistic on the spine of the Greens.

The TREND IS REAL!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea what it means yet because it's still an evolving situation, but I know it's great news!

 

[St. Bear]

Lots of sleet pinging off the windows here in NW NJ, which is not what was forecasted. Hopefully the Poconos are spared, but I'm doubtful.

 

[BenedictGomez]

This is going to be an Oprah snowstorm for ski country!!!!!!

YOU get 20", and YOU get 24", and YOU get 18", and YOU get 27", and YOU get 19".

EV-RE-Bah-De gehts a snowstorm!

 

[Rowsdower]

All snow and 22 degrees in Lake Harmony. Pokes look fine.

Some sleet mixing down in Bucks Co. but thats whatever. I don't need the snow down here, I need it up in the mountains.

Ya but snow down there helps to drive traffic to the ski areas! Visuals get people excited.

Camelback is already reporting 14", which means nothing to me because they're the biggest liars of any ski resort I know, but it seems plausible given Blue Mountain is reporting 16", and there's LOTS more snow to come. Nothing to worry about for Poconos.

 

[gladerider]

a lot more snow? how much more? it's now sleet and freezing rain by me.

Should be all snow in Pocono's but a little mix wouldn't be a disaster. Just means the storm is a little more north and west which is where you want it anyways. Pocono's will be fine, as like I said, I was there just before the temperature drop and the base ( @ CBK) was still in decent shape. The more north the better as NY/NE could really use it to get everything back into play for the spring.

A little sleet at Camelback ,not sure how much they got . A relative 10 miles from Lake Harmony reportred 23" JF must be close to jackpot. Southern Lehig co. got lots of sleet only about 10-12".

 

[VTKilarney]

Eye on the Sky prediction.

 

[Rowsdower]

About to wrap up down here. About 8-10 on the ground with some sleet mixed in.

Poconos look like they may have gotten 2x that.

I saw a post that Mt Pocono is at 21 and still going strong.

Sounds like Yack Yost hit the Jackpot.

16 inches as of 3-4 hour ago and still coming down. I can see 20 inches being realistic out of this storm.
