April 2019 observation and discussio

Big Nor'easter on the way for tomorrow night and Wednesday 982 MB just east of Cape Cod will we see any CCB snows with this it's very close specially Inland areas also watching Friday early morning as big arctic high pressure presses down to the north with low pressure moving in from the Midwest. Also big n a o Ridge and AO expected to plunge. Where was this all winter

3 to 6 in Eastern Connecticut through Red Sox Suck can this shift about 50 miles further west to get the eastern half of Long Island and our nw burbs in the Snow.

This morning's disco from Upton

Followed model trend of the ECMWF/NAM to bring a developing
storm closer to the coast Tue night into Wed. This system bombs
out from 1014 mb on 12Z Tue to 986 mb by 12Z Wed per latest
ECMWF, passing just S of the 40N/70W benchmark and bringing
precip especially to Long Island and southern CT during this
time. The storm should draw in enough cold air to lead to a
period of wet snow or mixed snow/rain. With wet-bulb temps
should be just above freezing in most places, do not expect more
than an inch or so of accumulation on and mainly on grassy
surfaces, though if a more northerly/stronger trend were to
continue, may have to watch out for heavier comma head precip
making it into New London County in eastern Ct and possibly
higher snowfall amts well inland

All I want out of this is .5 inch to get me to an even 40 inches for the season.Below normal, but acceptable with the horrible pattern we had to work with.

Yes, brings to mind an expression from the old days..."A day late and a dollar short".

I see no ranking thread for this winter yet but I'm giving my area a "D".Below normal and too many slop storms.

Now the NAO and AO wants to go negative. This always happens.

44* and Cloudy here. Looks like the heaviest rain bands are just off the coast maybe clipping shore towns from Manasquan to AC. Inland NJ might see a couple rain showers later this evening from some rogue cells in the Balt/DC area. Friday looks like a bigger rain event - and a cold one at that.

Imagine how ticked off most of us would be (except Alex and Scott maybe), if this nor’easter was in January and that was snow off the coast.

Sleet and snow 38*

38 with steady light snow. It's been snowing light/moderate for past 30 minutes but not sticking.

37 with moderate snow, starting to stick to colder surfaces.

38 degrees with light rain occasionally mixed with sleet pellets. At least tomorrow and Sunday it's going to be a warm sunny weekend

I had a mixture of sleet,wet snow and rain from about 3PM until 7PM with a balmy temp of 37*!
3 out of the 5 last April's we had wintry weather

67 beautiful degrees today! first lawn cut of the season happened today...a little early, but really needed it! spring is here...

69.5 degrees in Binghamton, NY as of 11:15am. Hit 73 yesterday. Another warm day on tap

Hit 80° here today

had a high of 79* now its chilly temps are dropping down to 54* due to the ne winds

Lots of chatter about next weekend and possible nor'easter with interior snows?? I know, its 6 days away, it'll be April 14th so climatologically would be rather rare, models aren't showing anything all to spectacular, and it was near 80 today!! lol, but is there any merit to the discussion?

Looks like a frontal system Friday night (just some rain showers), then there is a storm that may track northeast from the TN Valley Sunday night into Monday, but looks to track inland and be rain for the entire area. I suppose if it tracked off the coast and deepened there could be snow in the higher elevation interior, but that's not favored right now.

Check out that Low Pressure area over the Central Plains/Midwest from Wed. to Friday. That is a bomb. Someone in the northern plains is going to see a couple feet of snow.

18-24 inches in parts. We remain damp and chilly.

The relentless pattern since November continues to produce snow for the Central, North Central and Northern New England areas while we remained cold and dry with the big storms suppressed or cutting west.Happy to have gotten close to 40 inches this season .Let's hope for a better 2019-2020.
