Doesn't help that what is falling has the consistency of powdered sugar. Good forgettable storm here. My parents in Brockton though.....Dad's already called twice.
Running to the store to buy a bottle of jack so that I am prepared either way: happily celebrate 2’ or drown my sorrows over 10”.
Anybody need anything?
Looking at the levels from SFC up to 700 there's never actually a closed circulation associated with it. It has to be all convectively driven. It's just analyzing the warm front at the same pressure level as the parent low.
Edit: but it sure does displace the warm conveyer belt.
Honestly I wouldn't be shocked if we got 12" in between bands, 18" from a good storm or 36" from a June 2015 band. That's just the nature of the big boys. Except for Feb 2013, there are always surprises and haves v have nots.
