Storm Buzz Continues

We're always a little skeptical when we hear chatter about a big storm a week in advance of it, but the ravens continue to deliver encouraging news to GSD Headquarters.

Here's what the NOAA Albany folks are saying:

Still too early to give total snow accumulations for the Sunday-
Monday event but the Weather Prediction Center has increased
probabilities for this being a "plowable" snowfall event with > 50%
probabilities painted over more of eastern NY/western New England
than previous forecasts.

At this still early stage in the developments, that's about as good as gets. We expect to know much more in the next 48 hours as the forecasting models start to come into agreement.

The big issue will be the track of the storm. The European model has the storm gaining strength as it moves into southern New England; the US model has it tracking farther south. If you want a big snow event, root for the European model to win this early snow season battle.

This storm is far from a done deal. We urge you not to buy into the hype just yet. Much more to follow from us in the coming days.
