Good Saturday all-
A WINTER STORM WATCH is up for northern areas, and a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY for southern areas.
Here we go- the fun continues tomorrow as another major nor'easter heads for New England. The new Euro produces 6-12" for everyone north of the immediate shoreline tomorrow and Saturday. Based on current trends, I'm inclined to agree. The difficult part comes with the interior southern counties. For example, the SREF plumes (a short range ensemble model) have a cluster for Waterbury at about 3"...and another at about one foot of snow. Yeah, that helps. Each station in Connecticut has similar problems. Thus, the difference between a 3-6" south with ice and 6-10" north outcome...and an 8-16" statewide blizzard....is very, very small. And yes, blizzard is not overstated here, as the NWS in Taunton, MA says that the WS watches for our northern counties could easily become blizzard watches or warnings later today.
Keep a close eye on this one- I'll have final totals as soon as I have a better idea than 1-16". :(
Get ready- it does appear for now that this storm will be named Blizzard Diana. By the way, for what it's worth, the #1 analog for this system? 2/8/13. Ouch. Whenever that day pops up, we pay attention!!
