Scott, I remember now that ne MA was another real screw zone in 2010 for some reason....if you look at Will's map....I had 54.5", but you had up about by Groveland and that area and it was like 38" lol

Yeah I remember, I was just trying to think of the storms that he beat you in.

I'd prob go 3-5 for your area...but maybe less up by MPM...the band might be stronger as it enters W MA.

New NAM keeps the heaviest of the first batch south of us, but brings it in enough so that we'd get a few inches. More specifically, I'm thinking 3-5" for Pete and I, 2-3" up by MPM. Batch two starts as rain, maybe some freezing rain on the east slope, before ending as brief burst of snow. We might get an inch or two from that, but we have a strong upslope signal for tomorrow night during CAA. Depending on how this transpires, it could bring several inches of additional snow for someone, especially N Berks, S Greens. Northern Greens are going to get smoked with wrap around and upslope.

I'm glad my excitement was limited to about 4 hours. These trends are disheartening for the extremes of GC. Drying out on the overnight and the second round will be 1) too warm on the front end, and 2) too dry (west) on the back end. Perhaps I'll be sawing this weekend as I had earlier thought.

So what's this looking like for the Boston area? I've been in class for the past few hours and it seems like things have changed.

Maybe coating to half inch. Probably a 30% chance of an inch if I had to guess. It will depend on the banding, If it rips, we could do surprisingly well.

I don't think it would weaken much...I worry about the final latitude it attains. As of now, I think it looks pretty good for ORH-BOS corridor.

A place to watch is the southern tier....like BGM...if they get into good stuff, we are probably going to do well.

I think you post that before every west-east moving event. lol

True, though....makes sense.

They are just barely south of BOS-ORH latitude...so a system moving E to ENE that hits them well is in line to hit us downstream.

Maybe you can luck out and stay just to the north of the dryslot in the weenie west to east band. At least the returns might allow for a few more hours of snow.

I'd say by about 2AM.....you'll be derobed, Kocin book in one hand, Bud Light in the other, all the while typing BGM obs with your nose.

Yeah there is probably going to be a bit of a tail on the precip shield after the main first thump moves through. So whoever gets in that tail could get a few extra hours of light snow.
