I use the rolling forward method . To me exciting times in our immediate future

NWSFO Boston (Taunton), Massachusetts, CWA — The storm produced up to 29 inches of snow, blizzard conditions, and a (relatively minor) 2-foot storm surge along the coast. Over 20 inches of snow fell in Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Plymouth and Bristol Counties in Massachusetts. This swath was a continuation of the heaviest snow band which originated in central Virginia, then crossed eastern Pennsylvania and northeast New Jersey. The snowfall from this storm added to the existing snow cover, giving Boston's Logan Airport 30 inches on the ground. This broke the all-time snow depth record of 29 inches set in February 1978. However, the 18.2 inch total for this storm at Logan was only the seventh heaviest snowfall event—the Blizzard of '78 is this area's benchmark storm. The storm's main impact was to shut down school systems, airports, and other transportation means for several days. In addition, heavy snow accumulations collapsed roofs in the days following the blizzard. Southern New England Southern New England was also on the northern fringes of this event. All available model guidance indicated a sharp gradient of the Quantitative Precipitation Forecast (QPF) and relative humidity fields. Due to model interpretation and the uncertainty of the guidance, warning and watch lead times were somewhat reduced for a large section of the CWA. Nonetheless, NWSFO Taunton issued numerous statements to update the situation. A Winter Storm Watch was issued Saturday morning at 0900 UTC, January 6, for the possibility of heavy snow for Cape Cod, the Islands, and south coastal Rhode Island. At 0900 UTC, January 7, a second period Winter Storm Warning was issued for the entire Taunton CWA except for Franklin and Hampshire Counties in Massachusetts and Cheshire and Hillsborough Counties in New Hampshire. At that time, these counties were covered with a Winter Storm Watch. In the January 7 afternoon forecast package, all of the Taunton CWA was placed under a Winter Storm Warning. By 0200 UTC, January 8, southeast coastal Massachusetts, including the city of Boston, and south coastal Rhode Island were upgraded to a Blizzard Warning. As model guidance shifted the snow northward across Massachusetts with time, the Boston forecasters had to catch up to the event and issue warnings instead of watches. Post-storm reviews by the Taunton office noted that the areal extent of the watch should have been increased according to the conservative Eastern Region policy of issuing watches when the probability of the event occurring is at least 30 but less than 70 percent. Like many notable winter storms, portions of the southern New England coastline were threatened with storm surge flooding. A Coastal Flood Watch was issued early on the morning of January 7 and upgraded to a Coastal Flood Warning that afternoon. The tide of concern was the afternoon high tide of January 8. Just before high tide, the wind became northerly and parallel to the immediate coast, lessening the threat for coastal flooding. Consequently, the impact was relatively minor with some flooding of shore roads, a few of which were closed for a short time. The NWSFO in Taunton continued coordinating with external users in southern New England even though the storm was initially forecast to head out to sea south and east of the area. As the storm track changed, this constant contact proved beneficial because emergency managers were kept briefed and well informed. After additional coordination calls, the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency opened on Sunday and the mayor of Boston ordered the removal of existing snow on city streets prior to the onset of the storm. Mead Herrick, Director of the New Hampshire Emergency Management Agency, was satisfied with the level of service provided by NWS offices but stressed that this was not of the same magnitude that it was farther south. For this area of the country, this was a winter storm and not a blizzard. He felt the coordinating office was well in tune with this, and the forecast products and coordination were in keeping with the event.

Lol we are all important

Feed me 75% of those years and my 56 inches from now until April verifies

Are you the Adam from IJD who was on the radio?

Jan 1994 drove me nuts. Think they missed a bunch and had like 4 delays. All for minor events and it was so cold no one left the house

So many years I was conflicted with wanting feet of snow or inches of ice only to remember it meant no school for a boatload of teenagers in the house and me usually getting called into work for snow removal or power issues. I never wavered though still wanted history. Thankfully 2015 occurred after they all moved out.

Congrats all rain after minor ice last night.

Really though in early Nov all extended modeling showed a flip to a massive negative WPO development for Dec. Cold solutions were no surprise. Triggered? Hardly.

Dont know in history where the ridge resides but any month where the WPO is negative 3 or lower has always meant BN east . Tsk Tsk for not knowing historical correlation

These small birches were bent over in the March 18 paste storm and are still bent crooked in 25

Cloudy upper 40s

Yes he has been on a couple commercials

Negative WPO was in the cards starting appearing beginning of November as many here pointed out. All signs pointed to colder solutions. After a thaw can we make it a Pete Repete .Tack on the deep negative EPO balls cold. As the STS ramps up too. The elusive East Coast Mauler this year?

You know who the brother is right?

In good time. Its coming

Great day to ski in Maine

35⁰ rain looks like Hubbardston wins the ice ring for the day

Happy anniversary

Have faith young man we have recovered from worse even later.

Golden years my ass lol

Easy actually. The nerve block lasted a month. Walking immediately
