  1. Agreed....QPF is very useful, though even that can be iffy at times, but QPF is an order of magnitude better than snow maps. When it comes to coastals, give me some good Mid-level maps with fronto and a few soundings....the QPF map can then be used with those other variables to get a more accurate picture of the potential snowfall.
  2. Going to be a sharp cutoff....I don't think it goes from like 10-12" to 2" in 10 miles....but it could go from 12" to about 5-6" in 15-20 miles.
  3. I've become more and more disillusioned with clown maps...they are lazy and often too wrong...looking at mid-levels and soundings is way better.
  4. 12z NAM so far seems to have more northern stream interaction through 18h vs 06z....so we'll see if this bumps back a touch NW with the precip shield.
  5. Clipper for Thu night has been coming back stronger the last 24h.
  6. Midlevels look very good for that corridor. But prior to going to bed last night I had mentioned a steep cutoff in precip and that’s still showing up this morning so im thinking it’s real. I think less northern stream interaction is helping increase the gradient. Someone is going to get absolutely smoked though on the northern side where the fronto band sets up.
  7. There definitely seems to be not only a southward trend, but the precip cutoff is becoming tighter. You might go from a foot to 2” in a span of 15 miles if these solutions are correct. Something we’ll have to watch for on the next couple cycles…if that very tight gradient persists.
  8. You are correct with this for most of the SNE forum members and a chunk of the southern CNE members. Coast still has some legit concerns though…esp like cape over to SE CT coast.
  9. When I was toggling h5 at 42h, it was def a tick north. I don’t toggle QPF maps when I’m doing my analysis
  10. Yeah there’s still another full day of model guidance to tickle back north. Even right now, the midlevels aren’t bad for S NH…maybe not jackpot but pretty good
  11. Agreed. It’s plausible but it requires some pretty awesome dynamics like we saw on the 12z Euro run yesterday and some of those GFS runs. Im sticking with 8-12 here and if some of these runs inside of 36h starting tonight decide to go bonkers, then you can always adjust. The one thing I hate telling people historically as a forecaster is to expect high amounts and then have to cut back really late in the game.
  12. Yeah there’s some high stakes out east as it tries to go bonkers at the end but it’s doing it slightly too late.
