Patty's Day Storm???

[freeheelwilly]

The models keep trending this thing further and further North. The latest run puts the the Northern Dacks in play. We're not the hardest hit (that would be central NE) but we get some. The next run may be even better. A Patty's Day N'oreaster? 8)

A bit better than I thought. Could we be lookin at 18"?

That looks good. I know you told me about it last Sat., but I didn't realize we had a shot at that much.

This map looks good too.

My early call:

26" at the mountain before this thing winds down.

There, I said it. That's based on 75% meteorology (not mine - other much smarter people's) and 25% unbridled optimism (that's all mine! 8) )

And it's not gonna be cement either - we could see some nice snow out of this (in fact, if we get that much, it will - by definition - be the fluffy ultra-light).

Trackin' this thing over the next 24-36 hours is gonna be interesting.

Man these predictions are way off anything Ive heard. Most Ive seen is 6-12, and that would be further south. Who knows.

Then you're using the wrong sources and just generally not paying attention. (http://www.srh.noaa.gov/fwd/productviewnation.php?pil=BTVAFDBTV&version=0)

There's other sources too but I think baby steps for you until you prove to be a somewhat more discerning consumer of weather information. :wink:

Sometimes you have to click on "properties" but in this case right clicking on the image goes directly to "properties".
