The NAM is pretty unstable at 00z tomorrow (well Saturday)..lol. It almost implies a few rumbles with the H5 vortmax moving through.

It's also crushing for Brian and Jay up in IZG area.

The vortmax actually takes a great snow track for SNE coming through central PA over to NYC and just off to our south...its just that we had an eroded airmass in place and couldn't keep the WAA in check much at all or had no room to withstand it, so we see the snow a bit further north, but as the vortmax makes its pass at our longitude, we should see an enhanced area on the back end that could give a nice little burst of snow.

00Z NAM looks great for the Berkshires and GC. Looks like a few hours of taint south of the Pike, but PSF should be mostly, if not all wet snow if the NAM were to verify verbatim. What looked like a miserable cold rain, could very turn out to be a textbook wet snow bomb with warning criteria snow for PSF, AQW, and ORE.

That's funny you noticed that too. If you were to blindfold me without knowing the situation, and then just show me H5... I wouldn't have thought a track over se mass. I hope it works out for you, because I'm ready to bust out a youtube tstm clip...Dec '96 style. laugh.gif

I guess we'll see what the rest of the suite does, but if actual obs are any say out by Memphis...there may be some truth. But, gotta keep things in check and not let the NAM suck you guys in until the other runs come in.

Imagine, if it was only colder.:frostymelt:

I'd be pretty happy with the NAM even if I'd be pretty jealous of Hunchback and company just to my NW. I'd take 4-6" on the front end in a heartbeat with more on the back end and possibly some marginal ice or sleet in between. It would be a net gain easily.

I'm not sure I buy how cold the NAM is, but the trend has been colder all afternoon...and the usually torching RUC (beyond 6h) is snowing here at 12z tomorrow morning. So the shift might be real....and I do think there mught be a very thin band of some icing. But it probably wont remain stationary...though could settle in one spot for a few hours. That happened believe it or not on the 3/31/01 event...even that late in the year during the day time.

It's all about the looks...

I was skiing... what has happened? 4-6" on my front end? Is my rear end looking white as well? :arrowhead:

Spent the last 45 minutes at 2k this afternoon battening down the hatches, had a feeling this could happen. Hope it does.

LOL so after all was said and done this DID end up pretty far SE.

Here's the thing...one more shift like this SE in the next run at 6z and a lot of you get buried.

Man that would be the irony of all ironies would be a final solution like the GFS had the other days when it was trashed into waste management bins.

scott where do you imagine the S/R line at like 5-6 am tommorrow? commute from w. framingham over and up toward stoneham, ma.

Could very close to that line from your area to Stoneham. I wouldn't necessarily lock that in, but I would keep the notion of some sort of snow or mix possible.
