JRWeather WINTER STORM WARNING
     JRWeather Has Issued A Winter Storm Warning for Orleans, Essex, Lamoille, Caledonia, Washington, Orange, Windsor, Bennington, Windham, Eastern Franklin, Eastern Chittenden, Eastern Addison, and Eastern Rutland Counties In Vermont From 10PM Tonight Until 10PM Monday Night.
     Low pressure over the Southeast United States will track Northeast, and up the coast, and eventually into the Canadian Maritimes by Monday Evening. The result will more snow for the region.
     Snow will begin late this evening or early Monday morning, and become occasionally heavy at times, especially across eastern Vermont. Total snow accumulations by Monday night will range from 6-9 inches with locally higher amounts in eastern Vermont. Moisture on the back side of the system, may result in more upslope snow, which could enhance totals in the Northern Green Mountains of Vermont. Along with significant snow, winds will be increasing into the 10-20MPH range with gusts up to 35MPH during the day Monday. This will cause significant blowing and drifting of the snow.
     A Winter Storm Warning is issued when severe winter weather is likely. In this case the Winter Storm Warning is for heavy amounts of snow, and blowing snow. Travel will become hazardous Monday morning, and last into the evening hours. Stay tuned for further updates.
JRWeather WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
     JRWeather has issued a Winter Weather Advisory For Grand Isle, Western Franklin, Western Chittenden, Western Addison, and Western Rutland Counties in Vermont, and Clinton, and Essex, Franklin Counties in Northern New York From 10PM Tonight Until 8PM Monday Night.
     Low pressure over the Southeast United States will track Northeast, up the east coast, and eventually into the Canadian Maritimes by Monday Evening. The result will be more snow for the region.
     Snow will begin late this evening or early Monday morning, and become moderate at times. Total snow accumulations by Monday night will range from 3-6 inches. Moisture on the back side of the system, may result in more upslope snow, which could enhance totals in the Mountainous terrain of Clinton, and Essex Counties, which could locally enhance snow totals. Along with significant snow, winds will be increasing into the 10-20MPH range with gusts up to 35MPH during the day Monday. This will cause significant blowing and drifting of the snow.
     A Winter Weather Advisory is issued when there is a strong likelihood of significant but not severe winter weather. In this case the Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for moderate amounts of snow, and blowing snow. Stay tuned for further updates.
DISCUSSION
     Continued westward trend in models, has resulted in an issuance of a Winter Storm Watch by the National Weather Service in Burlington, and Winter Storm Warning for Bennington, and Windham Counties in Vermont, by the National Weather Service in Albany. I have went ahead and issued a Winter Storm warning for the Western slopes of the Green Mountains, and points east, for the potential of 6-9 inches of snow. For the Champlain Valley of New York, and Vermont as well as the mountainous terrain of Clinton, and Essex Counties of New York, a Winter Weather Advisory is in effect, for the potential of 3-6 inches of snow.
     Even up to this point, models are still in slight question, as they continue to inch further West with each run. Any further shift to the west or east will greatly impact snow totals. Of additional concern is the possibility of the Northern Greens to be in a good placement for significant upslope snow, on the back end of the system. Conditions will continue to be monitored closely and further updates will be issued. Stay tuned!
