I was walking my dog today and saw that alert and was going to post here. Keep us posted. Hopefully doesn't affect your travel.
They do a great job. The road is very rarely closed for more than a few hours at a time. They often close it at 3 am to blast and 99% percent of the time, it's open for the morning commute. I can only remember a handful of times in the last 5 years that it was closed for more than 3 or 4 hours. I don't remember it being closed for multiple days in a row, although it has been closed for periods of time over multiple days. It's just part of living in the mountains.
Speaking of Arctic. WOW, what is this I see! Can it be? Europe in for a deep prolonged Arctic blast?
I don't know. The GFS seem to change dramatically every day. Now the Arctic air mass seem to swirl only over me and not heading south, but on the other hand a high will develop (maybe) in Central Europe to create a free Arctic highway.
Anyway, seems it will be a East-West split. Sorry, Rozenn, P London and dunno what to put here... looks like not much cold west of the Rhine.
edit: it started snowing already! YEEHAW! Feel like a kid on Christmas.
Very hard to tell if we are going to get cold or warm air next week. The easterly came in on wednesday then pushed away on friday (on the models). Now its back. We think the models weere very progressive on pushing away the high pressure.

Axtually we don't know yet. The people on netweather think the models were too progressive. (The gfs often is with low pressure). I think this will be a case of waiting to two days before. This is very common for the british isles
And wise up. I've seen snow like 8 times now! So what haha
Heading to work in a bit but keep an eye on those river gauges and flooded roads. Ground is frozen solid and nothing is getting absorbed. Add ice on the rivers and there's no where for the water to freely flow.
Current radar across the country. Some embedded downpours here in CT, T-Storms down south.
I Put this together showing the Top 10 locations for snowfall totals so far. I grabbed all the Climo sites from West Virginia to Maine using the CLI reports.
Even though Syracuse has over 4 feet of snow they are right at normal while everyone else is above normal to date. Only south of DC showed below normal departures and oddly enough Burlington Vermont too.
