Possible Storm for November 13

Despite the long-range forecast calling for a mild end of November and December, we are happy to announce the first chance of a plowable snowfall for the season. Yoha!

A sizable storm will be moving up the coast during the day Monday/Monday night and into Tuesday morning. This storm looks like it will bring snow to the northern half of New England. It's also possible that this storm will slip out to sea and graze eastern Mass and Maine, but some forecasters are suggesting that the models are off and a good shot of heavy, wet snow is headed our way. Albany, the Berkshires, the Adirondacks, the Greens, and the Whites would all be in the snow zone for this storm.

We don't want to jack up the hype too much on this storm yet, but you should be aware of this looming chance for measurable snow. It certainly is possible there could be delays on Tuesday, especially if there are power outages from the wet snow, but it's a little too early to start making predictions.

We'll have much more about this developing situation in the next few days. It sounds like this upcoming weekend would be a good time to get the deck furniture in and the snow boats out (the low ones, not the big ones).

This map is from the models that are taking the storm farther to our east than some local meteorologists are now currently predicting. What this map really shows is that there's a lot of moisture with this disturbance. If it hugs closer to the cost, northern New England could be in for a big one early next week.
