I still think this is portsmouth sw to ne mass/e ma. Not a maine deal.

 

 

It might be...S ME climatologically is pretty good for these....though there is obvious model disagreement. Norluns and inverted troughs are inherently very difficult. The 2/22/07 norlun I remember being forecast as a SE NH deal right up until the event actually started, but the LL convergence set up over NE CT and C MA and we got like a 4-6" event while outside got 1-2".

Yes that one sticks out in my mind. That was during that snowy week..I had 5 inches here.The only good period that whole winter.Not saying that happens again but  I don't care what the models show..this is not etched in stone by any means..and folks calling for flurries may be  a bit premature
