I remember that the "forecast" was for the 2' jack to be just nw of PYM....I was optimistic in the lead up that the mid level gods would have higher aspirations for ne MA. Once we got to like 1-2am, John (earthlight) was texting me about the insane sounding for KBED and I knew for sure this would be one for the ages IMBY for two reasons:
1) That radar right there...the storm in the .id levels was taking off, and the death band setting up over MTP extrapolated to go right over me.
2) PYM area began as an extended period of rain relative to expectation....and even I began as rain before flashing over to powder. It was paradoxical in a sense that seeing rain drops fall had never elicited so much excitement from me, as it confirmed for me that a historical event was en route.
