If profiles end up that cold, accumulation will happen pretty quick...even with light precip. I'd like to see a big death band, but its just unlikely to happen in this setup. Should be a nice little event though...accumulating snow on Nov 7th is a bonus.

Agreed. I think we'll be in one of those 3/4-1SM deals that just slowly sticks. Shouldn't have much of a problem in higher elevations but it will be a slow climb.

But no models showed snow on Sunday ;lol:

And Will and I talked about the two things to watch for. One, a later phase and a bombing closer to us. That didn't happen. But number 2 was a colder/drier antecedent air mass which did come to pass. Couple that with a more offshore track and we're in business for winter.

That said the disjointed dynamics and a filling low south of Long Island make me hesitant to forecast much at all. Even in mid winter this scenario probably would be a disappointment.

Guess I should have looked first, my paltry QPF in. 85,nice

You're such a troll. In many ways worse than Kevin too. At least he tries to be funny about his trolling.

The issue is how mangled the dynamics look up this way as the storm fills to our south post-occlusion. It looks like an ugly, banded mess spread out over 18 hours. Not boring for some, I'm sure, but I think it has a disappointing look if people's expectations are an advisory level snow. If expectations are for flakes and some accumulation I think that's reasonable.

pot kettle black, it's fine when you troll though. I expect no snow but decent precip. Trend today has been for better dynamics, now cast situation.

now cast situation.

this, i think like scott has harped on , its all about where someone gets under a good band, and the duration.

away from the immediate coast line i think everyone has a shot, hoping for some CF enhancement tommorrow 1/2 half of nite,

i wouldn't be shocked if someone in SE pa or NJ grabs 10-12 inches in a localized max, this things will have quite a band down there for a few hours.

I see you're on the szygy again.

Not sure what you're referring and what your expectations are.

I am expecting a band from Pete to Hubb to Maine lays down 3-6 while 1-2 from Will to Kev to Chris Ms parents, winds gusts to 40here 55 on the coast. 3-5 feet of surge, 10 ft waves at the coast, 15-20 offshore. If this continues to phase later on 0Z runs then higher QPF and higher winds. You?

GFS keeps C NH cold enough for snow until about 9z Thu morning. It rips about 1"/hr in S VT eastward to the Monadnocks for a few hours tomorrow evening in that band and weakens as it passes through the Lakes Region. We easily wetbulb into the U20s as the precip starts so it should have no trouble sticking. Snow growth should peak in the band and then it'll trail off to lousy ratios after that before the changeover to FZDZ/DZ. 1-3" sounds good here.
