  1. It's occluding when it stalls over Maine, and most of the qpf is then over far eastern areas.
  2. Different animal. This is a progressive system, not a stall like in 1978.
  3. Parts of extreme eastern Maine receive 18" in 6 hours at 10:1. True white out zero visibility with those winds. The ultimate blizzard where blizzard conditions last for hours on end. But the 6 hr jackpot goes to Waterville Valley with 25" in 6 hours, again at 10:1.
  4. A lot will have to change on the Euro with h5 at 0z from the 12z run if that track is going to get some consistency. There is a world of difference right now between the 12z Euro and the 18z GFS.
  5. That run resurrects the look from yesterday's 06z GFS, which completely disappeared from subsequent runs until now. This run is not going to happen this way either. Probably be gone at 0z.
  6. Euro op is steadfast in continuing to show cold and dry after tomorrow for the next 2 weeks. Even the GFS agrees now.
  7. It will finally arrive when the cold air mass is retreating, so We've seen this movie a lot.
  8. I know. First it was the 5th, then the 9th, now the 11th. Being 12 days out, we have plenty of time to kick it to the 14th.
  9. Hopefully that one works out because there is nothing else in the pipeline after that.
  10. Despite what all the ensembles show, the Euro op verbatim says after Jan 1 cold and dry for the next two weeks. It's said that now for the last 3 runs since 12z yesterday. Granted, things can change fast.
  11. Cheer up, things could be worse here. The 0z Euro shows that parts of N Dakota from New Years day through the next 10 days won't see a temperature at any time of the day at or above 0°F.
  12. Well, that third of an inch of rain coupled with the 42F temp. didn't kill the pack too much. Still a good 3" with no grass showing anywhere. But I expect it will be all gone by the first of the week.
  13. This AccuWeather guy today sums up the two scenarios for that Jan 8-10 period: https://x.com/AccuRayno/status/1872657062758662398
  14. Thanks. Many times my hood is in the snow hole, so nice to jack once in a while.
  15. 6.75" is my final total, still snowing very lightly.
  16. Yeah, right over me with that yellow circle. Winding down here now, but still snowing lightly. Temp 27.9F. Final total will be between 6-7".
  17. Well, the weather gods gave some of us an early Christmas present.
  18. That band is literally stuck right over my hood. Visibility lowest its been here.
  19. Thanks for that radar pic. It really shows that strong band right over me.
  20. Really ripping again here. Must be close to 6" now. Some of the heaviest bands in the past 2-3 hours.
  21. The last time it snowed on Christmas in Boston was in 2017, when the city got 2.9 inches. But that snow didn't start until about 7 AM. The last Christmas here with 1" or more of snow on the ground entering the day was in 2009. So it's been a while, but we might be good this year. But don't use the airport measurement as your guide.
  22. Still steady snow here. Added another 1.5" in past 2 hours. Just after 4pm we had some of our best bands. Total now 5". Temp has dropped another degree to 28.9F.
  23. The snow is really ripping here now as was expected between 4-6 pm. Visibility reduced from what it was earlier.
  24. Actually, my latitude is about the same as that of Weymouth (not S. Weymouth), so I think it's more of a longitude issue from the look of the radar.
  25. If we haven't been in it to this point, I doubt it will move on us now.
