SnowGoose said it in the NYC thread, but why is it that these 6/18z runs seem to come in cooler? Not saying they are less accurate, but there has been a difference...

I'd guess for some reason the off hour runs have a tendency to underdo the WAA more so than the 12 and 00 runs which as we know almost always underdo it anyway themselves.

It'll be interesting to see if 12z goes back to a warmer solution. Euro has been fairly steady, no?

Apparently, it's cooled some. A few folks (messenger, and others) had suggested the off hour NAM/GFS would run a lot colder, the milder on the main runs though with a somewhat cooler look than the prior main run. A two-steps up, one step back approach. So like you said, let's see what the 12z run has in store.

Good htings all around though. 12+ coming. I might end up eating crow on my thought of the CT ice storm. I think Pete was premature in making a "final call" yesterday. He'd undoubtedly would want to raise his floor to about 10" or more I think.

14.1/6

Why has BOX kept the NH zones outs of the watch attm? Maybe giving them a separate wording?

I think we are in good shape (rt 2 north), however the slight but consistent south trends across the board are definitely worrisome as far as coming closer to max totals, rather than a nice but nothing spectacular 8-12" event. Ratos may help as in past storms, where qpf was quite a bit lower here, the snowpack will not be as solid as the Mass pike and south areas.

I'm not sure that extra inch over 24 hours would merit exclusion--especially since we're talking "watch" and the confidence level has to be quite high. I wonder if VT has the same criteria as they've been hoisted there.

Well it looks like we're honing in on an all snow scenario for most of interior SNE. The cold /snowy trend certainly continued overnight.

Interestingly, the zfp even for here in western Franklin has a sleet taint on Wednesday. BOX is sticking with a mix scenario in their AFD.

Nice to see 4-6" in the official forecast for NW areas from the appetizer.
