  1. Solid bands delivering down in Barnstable, MA (Cape Cod)
  2. Heavier stuff moving in down south. The unknown is how rates will translate.
  3. 4PM to 6PM is where the Cape will get their best rates. HRDPS says it should be around 2” an hour.
  4. Transitioning to snow in Barnstable down on Cape Cod.
  5. Outside of the NAM, it seems that most meso / major models have significantly pulled back on QPF output. Baring an overnight shift, looks like 2-4 is more likely for Boston, with points south in the 3-6 range, and 4-8 from Plymouth, MA down through upper Cape Cod. Unfortunate given the potential, but at least we have few additional clippers to monitor over the next few days.
  6. Would have to imagine proximity to the ocean & the influence of those easterly winds off of the water. If you were on the water all along the north/south shore you were toast.
  7. Only took until 10PM for Boston snowfall to actually start accumulating. Too little too late I'm afraid.
  8. Understanding how unlikely this EURO output is, we'd be looking at a 54 hour snowfall event for SE MASS. First shot would be from 0z to 12z Tuesday, with a brief letup in precip intensity, and then a decent pickup with the north wind / ocean enhancement from 6z to 12z on Wednesday.
  9. Sleet/mix confirmed via personal webcam on Cape Cod. Solid 5 inches for central Cape areas. Likely a bit more out to the canal and less to the outer Cape.
  10. You just learn to accept it over time. And yet there have been a decent number of storms in recent memory where the Cape has outperformed the rest of the region and more heavily followed metro areas. The good ole’ Cape Cod special. 30-36 inches with the Blizzard of January 2005 was a once in a lifetime storm so that made and continues to make everything worth it.
  11. Mix/Rain approaching MV and entering Nantucket Sound. Flakes are noticeably heavier and thicker. Trying to hold on!
  12. Cape is getting creamed right now. Not great ratios and mixing should begin over the next 60-90 minutes...but heavy stuff and great radar imagery nonetheless.
  13. Mixing has begun to overtake Nantucket. Will be interesting to see when an eventual mix/sleet occurs on Cape Cod. Most short range models were targeting 3-4AM.
  14. Central Cape Cod up to ~4 inches. FWIW 0z Euro really amps up precip totals north of MA boarder into central and southern VT and NH. NAM did a great job showing this trend and sticking with it across what was really the past +8 model runs.
  15. View from the webcam down on the south facing beaches of Cape Cod
  16. Flurries beginning in Hyannis down on Cape Cod. Will be interesting to see how long the warm ocean air and coastal front can be kept at bay.
  17. If this storm was in January or February, perhaps. Have to remember ocean temps are running ~10 degrees above that. Lower level warming at the surface will be no joke and hard to combat.
  18. Right!? Was looking pretty solid for SE Mass up until last night. We should be used to this by now though.
  19. Unfortunately I would take Euro 10:1 output with a grain of salt down here near the canal and on the Cape. While cold aloft, surface temps look to be running north of 35. Will be hard for meaningful accumulation to happen at those temps, probably closer to 5:1.
  20. Haven't been able to watch the local stations up here but last night there was alot of 6-12 being thrown around...We stay all snow, which is a real possibility on the upper cape, and we push 18-24.
  21. Having grown up on the Cape, I can almost say with a certainty that most of the Cape will be without power come the AM. 12-18 inches of heavy wet paste + 70mph gusts is not a good recipe.
  22. I really think all the major mets will bust low with the Cape. Already approaching 2 inches.
