look at the temp gradient in E coastal Mass. some spots near the coast are just gonna torch the BLayer with those ENE/NE winds.

Bos NE thru salem. low 40's

just to the west mid 20's to upper 20's.

i'm sitting 28.8 in wakefield ma at the moment.

Watch the coastal front tommorrow, i wouldn't be shocked to see precip breakout and focus along this front.

somwhere in philly metro area gonna see two to three inch hr rates and someone down there is gonna have a foot on the grassy surfaces...they are gonna get smoked!!

sick lol just sick!

Hey man I live in NE Philly, don't mean to clog up your thread. It truly is amazing we're talking about a significant snowstorm on Nov 7th lol. If the 6z NAM verified some places would see a foot, but I think it's over done. It really depends where the best VVs set up. Good luck up there as well.

I think 2-4 inches is probably a decent forecast for many areas. Hopefully we can hold this off until closer to dark.

BOX is saying early afternoon for south of the Pike, so based on that, seems like holding off is not in the cards. Seeing the radar (probably virga) already approaching Philadelphia would also keep me from holding my breath on that one. I think this is going to just truck on through with the primary question of how much can fall prior to any phase change.
