I’m with @#NoPoles. I’m likely looking at more rain then snow.

Speak for yourself, but from where I stand, I do.

Enjoy the snow next week. I'm on the outside looking in. 1-2" is not worth it to me. Let it rain instdead of being nuisance nonsesene that fuks up traffic.

That was wild at home for a few hours. Lot of snapped branches/trees down/wires down/power outages/streets flooded.

Little bit different look this AM.

I'd have to see what the 500mb graphics look like today compared to when I posted that 2 days ago.

You talking about this s/w I pointed out in the southern stream?

You still have next week system to get you there.

So does John think I’m throwing out the need for an -NAO this year as the be all end all to get a solid snowy season every year? Yeah, I’m just a moron throwing out indices.

That's just across rt 44 on the north side?

I'd love to see that lobe more elongated W-E then N-S as currently shown. As you've stated we need a stronger s/w to keep it from phasing with that lobe. Agee that the EPS looks better then it dis 12-24hrs ago.

Did TAN get blown away? Last observation was 11:45am.

His threshold for "snowy" is far less then mine.

MQE pulling off a 60kt wind gust

37kts at TAN

52kts at MQE

36kts peak at BOS.

34kts at TAN

The AO domain encompasses a large area so you need to delve into the details of where those negative anomalies have occurred. My guess is that the anomalies have been centered further north and west.

Congrats on 8" this month.

Loving it. If it's not going to snow, let it be 60F out.

Haven't a clue. I was 19 year old in College and didn't know a thing about weather other then the day to day stuff.
