I know the weather services have sophisticated computer models that predict storms with good accuracy, BUT . . . this prediction on Winter Storm 'Cato' has me wondering. . .
- In the Boston and Central/Eastern Mass area it has been in the 50's and 60's for the past 2 days
- Overnight temps are supposed to be in the mid 30's to low 40's
- It is not supposed to get to freezing temps before dark tomorrow in most areas (Wed before Thanksgiving)
Yet thru all this we are supposed to get a significant winter storm during the day with accumulation predictions 6" and up ???
Usually, here in New England we get dumped on when cold air is in place and a storm forms off the coast in the mid-atlantic area. However, this time, cold air does not seem to be in place and the ground certainly is not cold enough to support an accumulation of snow :noidea:
I guess we wait and see on this one . . .
I am wondering if the Buffalo blizzard has gotten the weather folks all hyped up :noidea:
