Yet, I have to trust only weather spotters verbatim without other verification.

Check the coops Scott. Oh, wait none are accurate, right?

The rain lasted slightly longer that just a few minutes more like a good 30 minutes or so. Some of you seem to always increase the amounts with the retelling of that storm over time but with MYV and ACK at about 24". It's a general 24 - 30"+. Yes, I know Sagamore stated they got 36" but with Sandwich at 24" right next to it. So I guess to each his own.

Not true exactly, it actually did turn to rain for a very short period of time down by the Cape where Mish Michaels was reported in Falmouth. But after that, it was straight snow till the end. Boston proper was never forecast to turn to rain at any point.

About 5.0" total here. 28F

I had about 4.2" here nearly an hour ago.

4.2" here. Light to moderate snow.

3.3" here on the nose. Light to moderate snow.

True, the NAM to a certain extent lead the way but the HREF was too juiced, which it has a bias of doing, for SE New Hampshire. However, I do believe SE New Hampshire end up with 3-6" of snow from this when all is said and done.

Try more like 8-10".

Just about pushing 2" here on the deck

1.5" and a least moderate snowfall rates now.

That band actually goes northeast from Putnam.

About 1" here as of now.

I'd say moderate to heavy rates at the moment.

I know, it starts up some what quickly.

James may end up tainting a little bit more than previously thought with these very last minute tics and current observations.

Happy anniversary! Blizzard of 1978! North Station, Bunker Hill Community College, and Copley Square.

No

More likely north of the pike / west of 495.

While we are confident in a plowable snow across most of southern New England, the uncertainty exists on whether or not higher amounts advertised by certain models will be realized. Also, the northwest extent of the heavier amounts is also uncertain. There is a battle amongst a lot of the global vs. high resolution model guidance. The tendency is for a lot of the high resolution data to be heavier with the snow amounts and also further northwest compared to the global models. It is quite evident even comparing the 3 KM to 12 KM NAM model. Given the differences we somewhat blended the guidance together. While we think some of the high resolution guidance may be too heavy with the QPF & as well as being too far northwest; there are a few things we need to consider. There are some indications of a band of pretty intense 700 mb frontogenesis and good snow growth on the northwest side of the storm. We also should mention there are decent mid level lapse rates and a -EPV signature. This may result in 1-2 inch per hour snowfall rates for a time especially late Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon. In addition, a period of good SLR/s would occur in this band especially if it is able to reach northwest of I-95, where surface temperatures will be colder.

Waiting for the 1PM Euro for verification this close in. Still thinking Nantucket and Central Cape gets some taint. Temps on the Cape will be in the low to mid 30's. The far South Shore like Taunton, Rochester, Plymouth, Middleborough, and Wareham looks around 8"-10" as of now.

True. I'm telling ya, if that GFS ever was 2-3 tics further west, we all would be singing a different tune.

Don't look at the ICON please.
