Storm 24-27?

[UVSHTSTRM]

It's been a while since we last got some significant wide spread snow. So weather geeks, what say you? Accuweather (mouth piece for snowblower/shovel/southern vaction trade groups :razz, seems to be talking something quite major for central/northern NE "Late Week". This should/would be perfect timing for my ribs to have healed...I hope. God rib injuries are the dumps. Note to self, don't forget to move cell phone, keys and wallet out of chest pocket...ouch!

Major? New England? Not what I'm hearing. Maybe for the plains. Then again I'm not a Weather babe!

I read the discussion on NWS out of Albany. Uncertain for now. I guess there's some warm air that could come in and make it a "mixed" event for parts of SoVT. Not holding out much hope for CT. But the local weather guy said it was worth watching because it could be an 1'+ of liquid equivalent. So maybe SoVT will get some snow out of it. Fingers crossed for a snow event.

These latest systems have been trending southward this month, as opposed to the favorable northward trends earlier this season. This one may slide to our south a bit but still the potential to clip us pretty good (S VT/NH more likely). Not going to go bonkers with it just yet.

They don't call it crap-u-weather for nothing. Ratings/hits sell. :razz:

Winn, you have this as an all-snow event for Mount Snow currently?

Albany and West Dover conventional forecasts calling for mix/rain. Trying to get my RWD 2 door car up to the mountains for a couple weeks and not sure Fri. is the best day/night to try it.

Keeping it barely all snow for now with mixing just across the MA border. Models are going back and forth...one just lurched northward again but leery of it. Will keep you posted.

Looks like traditional La Nina stuff coming in... just keep NoNE on the snowy side of things and I'll be happy. If not, there is always QC! There will be pow somewhere in the east this weekend I bet!

 

[riverc0il]

I like the NECN forecast this morning. Looks like a wash out for SoNE but NoNE looks to stay all snow as well as QC. Looking forward to some forecast projections tomorrow! These types of storm patterns are pretty bad for southern and central New England but I love them for my needs.

Updated forecast for Mount Snow with some of that mixing working in. We'll keep tweaking as we see fit

Surprised you have no snow forecasted for QC Townships but you have 6-10" right across the boarder in Jay and Burke. Also, the link for Owl's Head is broken. Obviously, I am considering QC for Saturday.

4-7" of snow...we'll take it! Down here in the flatlands...1.5-2" of rain! Ugh! We'll be driving through that Friday evening. :-x

Those areas don't have the detailed updates just yet. Someday when we have the staff/time we'll be able to provide greater details for those areas.

I'll take a closer look for those areas for you today and keep you posted when able. Cool?

There will be a sharp cutoff of the snow shield for those areas (Bromont/MontGlen/Owl's Head). Jay and Burke may hit the lower end of that range (will keep it for now for slightly more favorable snow ratios and to cover any northward shifts), but further north will drop off signifiantly...probably a few inches at best for now.

The fun part is going to be northern Mass.

Looking to do a SoVT slacker BC run this Friday perhaps in the Woodford area. I'm going to keep an eye on the Rain/Freeze line. How does elevation come to play with these events?

Should be a lot of fun just past Northampton. I'm mentally prepping for a longer ride. This is why I stock the fridge each Sunday night....cold ones for Friday's arrival.

Yeah, I am thinking it will be a no go on trying to get the RWD 2 door up to VT this weekend. Crap.
