Most of the snow has moved to Conn. and Mass. and most of our snow will end around lunch hour.

Snowburst

At 9:30 a snowburst began. These mini blizzards pile up snow quickly but do not last long.

So far, this storm is unimpressive but it will give us some snow today, with the bulk of the snow sliding off to the North of our location. Moose was right.

Evening update: Snow is headed our way Wednesday and it looks like we will have a little more than snow showers. I would guess an inch or two. More than that would be surprising. Plenty of cold winds blowing Wed. night. Bear in mind that higher elevations North and West could see the 2 to 4 inch range.

This is a clipper type storm which are best known for bringing us wind and cold and only once in a while a heavy snow. The heavy snow only develops when the storm hits the coast, draws in moisture and rapidly intensifies.This time the worst of the storm could hit points well east.

The storm for the 2nd and 3rd looks much less substantial but it is a little early to write that one off just now.

We remain in an active and moist pattern so more snow is almost certainly ahead at some point.

Moose Report

My dog Mr. Moose predicts only a chance of accumulating snow tomorrow. He did not stop to smell very often on his morning walk today. His pink nose is weather sensitive, making him a good short range weather forecaster. If he changes his mind, later today we will report it.

Bundle up for New Years Eve.

Expect a very cold outbreak after the first week in January.

Snow likely Friday into Saturday

New Years should be bringing some snow showers Wednesday and dry but cold New years Eve. and Day.

Our next snow of several inches is due in at the start of the weekend. Cold weather will follow. Next week will bring some rain or snow followed by very cold temps.

The latest computer model run is showing mostly snow now. I guess we will be going back and forth on the storm for Friday and Saturday.

No change in the forecast except that Friday and Saturday will probably see more rain than snow.

Back to Winter '09

The current mild weather will not last much longer and we may see snow around the 3rd of January. A definite downward trend in temperature will occur over the net 10 to 14 days. It is, after all , January that we are looking at.
