Here is the radar I use from wunderground.com, classic southeasterly inflow jet on a major time nor'easter classic precipitation production

Snow is powdery in nature now, dry snow blowing around in the wind, we are around 30-31F

Heavier banding developing in the SErly inflow

Bands are weaker over the area right now, but wind is blowing the drying snow, as we get further into the storm

03z SREFS went up big time with the mean at HYA, all snow now with a QPF mean of 2.5" and a snowfall mean of 20", mainly members are between 15-25" of snow

Surface pressures at buoy 44008 SE of ACK showing pressures of 982mb, and falling extremely rapidly

We lost power for a second there earlier in the morning around 545am, we switched over to very heavy snow, about 1-1.5" of snow on the ground now, temp hovering around 32F now, snow is sticking to everything, this is not a bust forecast, these amounts will happen, stay with us, look at that band converging towards Boston, MA we have hours of southeasterly inflow into the band allowing more heavy snow bands to infiltrate the region. She should slow down her forward progress some as the Arctic trough gets a hold of her

Damn I was falling into bad habits, I am sorry

Here is my latest map, this storm is combination of Juno and Blizzard of 2005

This cyclone is a stronger version of Juno in my opinion

Bands are individually moving WNW towards New England while the bands in general are moving NWward or northward

Heavy precipitation band heading straight for my brother who is stationed at a navy base in Newport, RI

38F, wind out of the ENE, and lightly raining outside, just started about five minutes ago

Ray look at the bands to the south of the islands, they are gathering intensity. Also the surface low has deepened below 980mb

Snowing in Providence according to Observations

Oh yeah, the Weather Channel is forecasting 24"+ in the light pink color on their legend for snowfall, this is awesome

38F temp/32F dew point ENE winds gusting to 30mph, Harwich, MA precip band right on my beach, about two miles south of my location according to radar, I use wunderground.com they have a pretty good radar setup, you can save the images too

Here is my third and final snow map for the Nor'easter tonight into Wednesday morning, 24 hour duration of snow, 24-30" in the jack pot zones likely, widespread 12-18" in all of eastern New England, snowfall rates may exceed 3-4"/hour, thundersnow potential is real, whiteout conditions will run rampant, high of around 35F and low around 28F on Tuesday for the Cape Cod area. Blizzard warnings are likely later this afternoon once the 12z package rolls through. Big potential for top three snowfall in Harwich, MA. My snowfall map is for New England only

Here is the first snow map for the March 12-14th Nor'easter, looks colder than previous two nor'easters so there is a heavy snow component unlike the last two, and a very serious wind component which could bring hurricane force wind gusts to Cape Cod and the Islands during the day Tuesday with blizzard conditions at the same time due to heavy falling snow, accumulations east of CT look very reasonable SW CT gets the least amount this go around.

A monster storm is beginning to organize over the Northern PLains to the Southeastern US states this afternoon, a large energetic disturbance is causing a southwesterly jet to enhance precipitation across the Southeast, a large plume of low level moisture sits off the southwestern Peninsula of Florida at this time in the form of major thunderstorms producing a lot of rain. Cold air is coming southward from the arctic region in the form of an upper level trough this trough will enter the US tomorrow morning in the form of a potential closed off upper level low, the newest 12z models produce 1-2' of snow for the Cape and Islands, before all said and done central MA and CT will receive 1-2' while the eastern MA and RI coastlines will receive the most snow from this storm, this looks like an all snow event on all models. 2-3' looks more probable at this time, this is a high end snowstorm event with wind potentially reaching hurricane force in gusts, stay tuned!

This is my only snowfall map for the Noreaster of March 7-8th 2018. Thundersnow is apparent in NJ and NYC and especially in the warm conveyor belt south of SNE where lightning is immense underneath very cold cloud tops where convection is. these heavier snow rates will bring down the cold air from the 850mb layer of the atmosphere and lead to potential snowfall over the Cape and Islands tonight the R/S line will crash southeast as the surface low is forecasted to move southeast of Nantucket and Chatham and is being reported as east of the 20z analysis of the 12z/18z NAM runs and 12z RGEM run, this should bode well for the Cape and Islands as this will keep the 925mb 0C line southeast of the area and should promote dynamic cooling to the surface, we shall see, otherwise there is another nor'easter on the models for Monday of next week that looks a little more dangerous than this storm tonight. We shall see! Current observations: Harwich, MA 38F temp, ENE wind gusty, and raining

Here is my final snowfall map for tonight's snow storm

A significant snowstorm is likely for Southern New England on Sunday. Snowfall amounts near 6-10" is likely from NE PA to Boston, MA, on the immediate coastline temps will be closer to freezing so snowfall will be wetter consistency and therefore lesser amounts than slightly inland where I have 6-8" from west of 128 to NYC and Long Island, NY. Snowfall map below:

A snow and wind threat exists on Saturday into Sunday from PA to SNE. Stay tuned for the latest details.

What if the world was about to witness the most catastrophic hurricane disaster in a 36 hour period ever? What would you do?
