Zeus Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 any chance that this storm gets any closer or is this etched in stone? Only headstones and commandments are etched in stone. There is always room for failure and always room for improvement. The 18z GFS and NAM could edge in a bit closer if the system gets amped a little sooner and/or tracks a little closer, or things could flatten out and push out a bit. Not a ton of wiggle room, however, seeing as the overall consensus is a pretty tight one. But enough room for change in the sense that if the comma head clips anyone in RI/E MA, the totals see a bump there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I'm guessing 3-6" Maybe, but can always go up. I'm speaking of my area and Logan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 My goal is to beat this last storm. 4.7", I think I can do it. Good luck! BOX isn't biting yet That's their am version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeus Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Yeah I'm expecting them to bump the numbers in eastern areas a bit this afternoon. Esp interior SE MA and N RI. Right; I'm guessing they'll shift the little dots of 4-6 to cover a wider area this afternoon, figure a PVD-TAN-centric blob, northern extent reaching the southern burbs of BOS and SE extent being the NW border of where they figure rain comes into play. MBY airport, mattering above all else, I figure to be sitting in 3-6 country right now unless 18z says the comma head crowns into EMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Congrats everyone I can see me getting 3" here, but not locking it. If that were my map, I'd really scale back the extent of that 3-6" range and introduce a 2-4 range that extends from GC into SVT/CD, etc. But it's not my map....

Zeus Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 If we get a comma head it's balls to the walls for sure. 12z NAM and GFS both hinted that it wouldn't take much, from what I saw, but you'd know better than I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butterfish55 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I just started the snowblower for the first time in nearly 2 years, insuring that we end up with a dusting to 2" here. You're all welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 12z NAM and GFS both hinted that it wouldn't take much, from what I saw, but you'd know better than I. GfS did have it. Since we are on the edge, I would like to see the 18z runs continue to be bullish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeus Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 GfS did have it. Since we are on the edge, I would like to see the 18z runs continue to be bullish. That's been my thinking... if we get another NW tick this afternoon, things look bright. I didn't expect the NAM to be quite as close in as it was since it's seemed awfully behind the ball this year, so even that was mildly encouraging.

Sugarloaf1989 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 6' seems a little high... I agree and think that I will likely wind up with 5" maximum, somewhat similar to yesterday's total's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 been around there a lot lately...regal beagle & zaftigs are great Regal is very good. Zaftig is meh to me but I've been going since it opened about 12-15 years ago. 3-6 for mby is a good call I think. Mpm...yes you're 0.25+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
