QUOTE(LoveNYCSnow @ Dec 16 2012, 07:15 PM)  I am not seeing much of a slop threat except maybe at the very beginning and very end, and it seems like it would be confided more to I90 north rather than I84 north. QUOTE(telejunkie @ Dec 16 2012, 07:16 PM) where? montreal on north? here in Vermont I'm already just shy of 35F and suppose to see mid 40s until Wednesday as the storm pulls away. I've been monitoring the model progression of the strung out mid level low. Thought we had a decent shot at a more concentrated vort along the coast, but alas not gonna happen. Rain for more most. Got to remember Dec is the transition month and that just for the fact we have a amplifying system along the coast, its a good thing. Its also a good reminder to not be too gung-ho too early during the transition period. -------------------- Troll Mode engaged due to the explosion of the Philadelphia Flyers by their worthless management.

Should be interesting to see how much Maine gets out of this. Even after giving up on most of the Northeast getting snow the models still consistently showed an inverted trough-like feature sticking around over Maine enhancing the snow at least a little while after the low leaves the region. From what I've seen it looks like the eastern parts of Maine benefit the most from this.

If only at some point this mid level low ended up to the southeast of Nantucket, MA, then we would get some good OES from it, but at this point, I expect rain to continue to fall.

just the fact that somebody in the NE is getting a descent snowstorm out of this has me excited because in time the snow is going to start slipping south into southern NE . right now they are calling for snow showers on friday and then we wait and see for a post christmas winter storm.maybe we can end 2012 like 2009 whare we had 16" here to end the month

I can live with junk here if Saddleback gets major dumped on... it's all about central Franklin county  I'm an ex-Waterville resident so know the feeling well. I certainly miss the lakes in that region as well. This post has been edited by telejunkie: Dec 18 2012, 11:54 AM -------------------- Winter '12-'13 Winter Storms of Significance (>4")

First time post. Hail or sleet just came pouring down in West Lawn, PA. Odd.
