Say this storm reached full potential...(1-3"/hr snowfall rates with wind gusts to 60 mph) -- long shot, but would they postpone the game? I know it's football and not the fair weather sport baseball that I play....but still.

99.9999999999999999999999999999 percent sure the game would not be postponed. If anything they would push it up from the 8:20 time to an earlier time slot.

BOX issued before the 12Z was in ....

DON/T WANT TO COMPLETELY DISCOUNT THE 00Z ECMWF GIVEN ITS SUPERIOR

VERIFICATION AND THE FACT THAT THE SYNOPTIC SCALE FLOW IS SOMEWHAT

FAVORABLE FOR EAST COAST CYCLOGENESIS GIVEN RETROGRADING UPPER AIR

PATTEN SUPPORTING A STORM TRACK CLOSER TO THE COAST. IN ADDITION THE

MORE AMPLIFIED SCENARIO BY THE ECMWF IS PLAUSIBLE AS THE SHORTWAVE

AND DEVELOPING SFC LOW ENCOUNTER AN UNSTABLE MARINE ENVIRONMENT WITH

INCREASED BAROCLINICITY FROM THE CURRENT STRONG COLD ADVECTION FLOW

OVER RELATIVELY WARM OCEAN WATERS. NEVERTHELESS WILL JUST HAVE TO BE

PATIENT AND WAIT FOR MODELS TO BEGIN CONVERGING ON A SOLUTION BEFORE

WE CAN PROVIDE SPECIFICS REGARDING SNOWFALL AMOUNTS AND TIMING.

Yeah I keep saying that to myself. These solutions are what I want to see on Saturday morning..lol. We got some model runs to deal with.

Optimistic right now, But we are inside 100 hrs out so things are trending to what we want, Now if we can maintain it a few more cycles...........

Significant convergence to this point.

If the storm stays east of BOS, then at the surface, temps will be cold. If it comes into CC Bay, then sleet may be an issue. The track of the low would keep winds more northerly across eastern mass. In fact, there would likely be a strong cstl front in the area. I see signs of that too. Of course, this is taking the euro and gfs/gem verbatim

Yup, we wanted west, but TOO far west could be a disastah.

Yea unlike the other so called busts this year, this is where emotional investment comes into play.. aka losing sleep, looking at models instead of Xmas shopping etc..

For first timers to eastuswx and Americanwx.. enjoy the ride... btw coastalwx.. do you think we should have radio show? And Where is will????

We do, and I will be euphoric only if this Euro run holds course. We're in good territory if we can string together 2 or 3 in a row. I will grant that this is still a great improvement considering we're normally feeling this way about one run at 144 hours or something.

BTW, my co-worker has a product that compares model runs, and the gfs and euro right now (12z gfs and 00z euro) are lock and step until just north of 40N, but almost on the money until that point.

That is fantastic. Both of them failing miserably at this time range would be stunning.

Once we get a better consensus on exactly where this storm will track and start seeing more consistency then we can start worrying about QPF totals and where the heaviest QPF totals will setup...that should be fun!

And first cweat ruc post
