I don't even have a denim jacket with the sleeves on it never mind cut off.
I do have a few patches from my kids soccer patch tournaments since I was the coach but they're sitting on my bedroom bureau.
They probably won't let me join with my forthcoming training wheels.
This far out forecast is fuzzy since it is very storm track dependent.
Expecting accumulation between a dusting and four feet of snow.
Winds between gentle zephyr and hurricane strength blasts with temps from damn cold to chilly.
There will be a likely run on eggs, bread and milk in the Grocery store.
Also expect long lines at the gas pumps as everyone fills 2-5 gas cans for their generators.
Pot dispensaries will likely see a surge as well as it looks to be a lockdown weekend.
Tonight's weather predicts 12+ " of snow for us Friday night into Saturday. Not sure about bolton/Jerry, I believe this storm is more coastal. Winter. Ick.
Ok so discussing the weekends weather in a more serious tone.
A good nor'easter needs a couple of things.
The first is a low pressure area coming up the coast along the jet stream. ✅
There needs to be a good supply of warm water in the gulf stream in the gulf of Maine. ✅
There needs to be a strong source of cold air to feed into the backside of the storm. ✅
If you have those three things it becomes a questions of path for the jet stream.
It is not a question of if there will be a big storm but where. These are the base essentials for bombification or bombogenesis.
That is when a storm center rapidly develops over a 24 hr period and drops 24 points on the barometer.
If it is too far out to sea, the cold air is warmed by the ocean and diminishes the effects.
Too far inland and it's starved of moisture which also limits the storm. Buuuut send it just up the coastline or just off of it. And poof the magic happens.
Suddenly the storm can blow up "out of nowhere." The low causes increased evaporation from the gulf stream increasing circulation.
The cold air causes precipitation which also enhances circulation. and so one...
So what have we got. Models say we'll be getting a low coming up the coast although no one is quite sure where.
The gulf of Maine set records for warmth this past fall. and there is a Canadian High coming in with a blast of really cold arctic air.
my real guess. 3 days out.... I'll see 18-24" with 45-50 winds. Lainey will see less snow but much higher winds. The jackpot areas will see close to three feet of snow. Might be me.
In the blizzard of '78 winds peaked at over 85 mph. The surf in Scituate was over 25 feet. There were wind bands of near 40" snowfall. This one might match that one.
of course then again, eh low might stay out to sea and we get nothing.
