Good morning everyone! A general 1" snowfall coated up the roads in Central Connecticut last night. Snowfall was light as predicted and did not have any major effects of schools this morning. Thursday, however, could be a different story. At this time, we are seeing model agreement on a major snowstorm for Thursday at noon to Friday at noon. A double closure during this time is possible, and I would expect either Winter Storm or Blizzard watches to be issued tomorrow afternoon if the model trends hold through the day today and until tomorrow afternoon. Although it is a tad early to discuss snowfall, I would look for a general 10-20" snowfall for now, and someone may well receive two feet of snow in Connecticut during this time frame. With the snowpack already on the ground, it may be time to break out those roof rakes again. Beyond that time, another nor'easter possible for early next week...Stay tuned! I'll update with the PM model runs at about 8 PM this evening.
Today in weather history- February 10, 2010- The second of two major blizzards hits the mid-Atlantic states, burying them in 20" of snow for the second time in four days. The one-two winter wallop is deemed "snowmaggedon". In Connecticut, the storm drops one foot of snow on the shoreline and barely anything near the Mass border.
