"Don’t do it" 2026 Blizzard obs, updates and pictures.
ORH_wxman replied to Ginx snewx's topic in New England
As a rule (I had mentioned this before the mega SWFE on 1/25-26), I try not to stray over 13 or 14 to 1 even in cold events that look “decent” in the soundings. That’s basically the cold snow climo in a lot of New England (outside of the upslope zones). Unless you have overwhelming model consensus on strong crosshair sigs in an event that isn’t super complex or long-duration….that might be the exception. -

We continue to rip in this stuff. It’s not the stuff of PVD lore and SE MA but been lucky enough to stay in it when a little further NW sucked on exhaust for a few hours. Consistently 1-2” per hour stuff. was just outside snow blowing and we had about 5” new from when I last did it and had 13”. So we’re past 18” at this point. 20+ is a lock. -

Death band losing just a bit of intensity now but still obscene. Still heavy snow here under these ~25 dbz echos. -

Seems to be congealing into a moderate to borderline heavy snow over E MA as the uber intense stuff is sinking a touch SE…but the subsidence zones are disappearing NW of 495 -

Keep regenerating and making little surges west. We'll pulse back to moderate and then go back to whiteout 300 yard vis. Picked up here again in the past few min. Absolute destruction where you are right now and just south -

Making another little push west with the good stuff….almost back to pure whiteout here. We had briefly gone to perhaps borderline moderate snow but now can’t see 3 houses away…just puking snow The meat of that band has to be like 4” per hour -

13” here now or so (very tough to measure but it’s def close to that. Might be more but staying relatively conservative) Epic over SE MA. Im on the northwest edge of the good stuff but nothing like RI and further SE -

Prob not a whole lot more. Mignt try to nudge a little more as the storm gains latitude but it’s also fighting occlusion as we go forward in time too so it will weaken some. -

We have like 60 knots rolling in at 850-900 from the northeast so your drift at that point away from radar beam with those velocities is prob like 15+ miles. -

This is like the reverse standing wave dryslot there in March 2013. They were perpetually under 35-40dbz -

Seems like the short term guidance is finally picking up the unfolding Firehose over southeast areas… -

Starting to really nuke now in this. We’re borderline heavy (little tougher to tell vis at night). Radar looks excellent for a lot of people right now. -
