The egg is on all meteorologists faces this morning after yesterday's storm jogged way further west than indicated by any computer model, and as a result dropped a whopping seven inches of snow on New London county. Yikes! My apologies for missing that one- it just goes to show that nature will sometimes do what it wants, and we're all just passengers on the journey.
On another note, the next time period to watch for a significant event is Sunday into Monday. The Friday morning commute also looks kinda rough as we get a rather bizarre snow changing to rain changing back to snow event tomorrow and it could leave, say, two inches of snow in parts of the state for that time period, so we definitely want to be careful there.
The Sunday threat looks much more significant. A coastal low will develop along a frontal boundary and, of course, it all comes down to the track. The high end potential of this one would be something like one foot of snow, so we most definitely have to watch this. Needless to say, models are all over the place five days out, so it's simply something to watch as we head into this weekend. There is also a chance of a significant snow event around the middle of next week, but obviously it's way too early to even talk about that one.
