December 14th - Snow showers or Plowable snow?
ORH_wxman replied to Sey-Mour Snow's topic in New England
Congrats on warning snows for SE MA on 18z NAM. -

NAM has some really good snow growth on the south coast predawn and early morning tomorrow. So if they can get into some decent rates, they could fluff their way to low end warning. -

Looks like ICON and Reggie nudged a little north too. -

Yeah the NAM popped a bit late but really looked good down there. -

Slowing it down is prob actually good because it gives it time to buckle a bit…we don’t want it blowing up completely after our longitude. If it can be allowed to buckle a bit and blow up further west, then the warning-level goods could scrape the south coast and Cape -

Hrrr really hammers the Cape and maybe parts of adjacent SE MA with legit fronto banding. -
When you loop the ensembles, the ridge axis never makes it here. That could be ripe for a good overrunning or SWFE

Surprised to see the good trends overnight after the early flaccidness of the 00z runs. I think some of these runs are extremely close to giving the south coast a borderline warning event. Hopefully we can grab a couple inches up to BOS-ORH…still a bit skeptical for the pike region but it’s plausible at least now. -

No help on trends from RGEM or ICON. We’re prob toast up here for anything more than C-1”. South coast to Cape still has a chance at something more interesting. -

NAM looks like it regressed slightly from 18z. It’s definitely been fairly consistently paltry. -
GEFS continuing the semi-interesting look going into Xmas Eve/Xmas. It’s obviously not your ideal coastal storm pattern but we’ve seen some interesting winter wx systems on looks like the below…overrunning snow/SWFE/potential ice…something to watch…you get a ripple or vort energy being shot across the center of the CONUS and it runs into that brick wall north of New England

18z euro brought the lighter QPF a bit north but trimmed back slightly south coast and Cape. Mostly just noise though. -

We’ll need slight nudges north almost every cycle from here on out to get solid advisory amounts more than 25 miles north of the south coast. Your area might not need quite as many nudges. -

Rgem looked a little skimpier but pretty close to 12z. Icon came north like the NAM did so that was the two most suppressed models at 12z coming north and the juiciest one slightly nudging S (or at least less QPF)…so there is some model convergence going on. -

South coast is really close to a big hit there. The system as a whole was more organized. -

Only out to 20 hours, but 18z NAM prob gonna join the rest of guidance…not quite as suppressed with heights over GL/Northeast as 12z run. Not a total shock as the NAM was one of the most suppressed runs at 12z. -
Probably assuming the cutter is real. Still some disagreement but I’d be shocked if we didn’t get at least one very mild day. Sunday’s event is just for aesthetics for a few days…we’re gonna need something in the 12/22-12/25 range to get the White Xmas…and it’s possible we could get that…ensembles have been coming around to the idea of overrunning/SWFE potential when looking at the H5 anomalies heading into Christmas Eve.

I think outside of the NAM (which is prob safe to ignore for now…maybe by 00z it starts be more useful), the 12z suite was enough to at least give a 1-3” floor for the south coast/Cape. Hopefully we can inch this a little further north. -
Yeah 12z euro gives most of New England a nice event on Xmas eve (maybe starting overnight 12/23)…high end advisory and then frigid Xmas day.
-
Yeah could be a C-1” deal. Wish we’d get a 2-4” clipper for once.
-
All small ponds here totally frozen over. Charles river in Dover was frozen on the way to work today. I wonder if it’s starting to freeze near back bay. That would be extra impressive.

I think the one hope is the vort comes in a little stronger. Should get a better sample of it on the 00z runs. I don’t think it would be enough to help further north but it could be enough to get the pike region more firmly into a 2-4” type zone instead of C-1”. It would also help get the southern peeps in on a borderline warning event. Again, unlikely but we’ve seen some last second trends before and the stronger vort is probably the most likely way you’d get the small bump. -
