anyway, still think there's room for a few NW ticks...might not save everyone in this forum but keeps the threat on the table for some 

I'm with you on this.  For the SE MA, CC, Islands crew this thing should still be watched.  Does not look like it will fully turn the corner but maybe just enough.

well i know you didn't get much the other night, but it's not like you live 50 miles from here.

you were literally like 10 miles from the good stuff that was down towards Falmouth and Woods Hole.

I am really not bummed or down. I agree with you, it's close enough from here to Bob to watch and even up to maybe Scott. I think we reached the right goalpost last night. Lets see how far left we can get today.

You called it, I did not see this coming re the cape pattern. Hopefully this one can come left a bit and get everyone in on the fun.

Euro 0z looked better vs 12z or at least not worse. 6z gfs ticked a tad closer. And don't shoot me but after this event gfs tried to thwart the torch in favor of 1993-94 style overrunning.

I've heard that season mentioned 93 or 94 times, yet we are snowing about as prolific a pace as last season.

I can't see QPF on the ensembles but at 84h, the sfc pressure map is almost dead on with the OP.

 

 

Thanks Will, My thinking because it was not posted that it either was the same as the op or slightly worse otherwise if it had trended more favorable it would have already been posted

There are similarities to 93-94....EPO/AO good....NAO/PNA bad but the PV is not nearly as strong as it was in 93-94 and the timing has been off on everything, that year it seemed the timing worked out every single event.

STC from one of the best

@MattNoyesNECN: Don't believe in Fri night snow for New England? U might be right! But here's why I expect some: http://t.co/huXLQ93E

Gotta hand it to him for getting right back on the horse after the norlun debacle, but his case isn't very convicing. Basically says he thinks there will be phasing, without giving any real meteorological explanation. He alludes to models' struggles with timing in a fast flow and references our cherished Gulf Stream, but it comes across as wishcasting to me. I love the guy, but that's not a very strong piece of analysis IMHO.

Sorry dude. If you read it you can see exactly why it should happen. You don't put something on the line like that in the countries biggest tv market unless its got a great chance of verifying

 

Here is my rebuttal to Matt's thinking.

 

00Z GUIDANCE CONTINUED TO BACK OFF ON POTENTIAL SNOW STORM FORFRI NIGHT INTO EARLY SAT BUT UNCERTAINTY REMAINS. MODELS DO AGREETHAT NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN STREAM PHASING IS NOT LIKELY ASMULTIPLE SHORTWAVES ROTATE THROUGH THE FLOW. THIS WILL RESULT IN AWEAKER STORM TRACKING S OF NEW ENGLAND WITH ANY APPRECIABLEDEEPENING OCCURRING TOO LATE AND WELL OFFSHORE TO SUPPORT A MAJORSNOW STORM FOR SNE. HOWEVER SOME SNOW ACCUM IS STILL LIKELY.GFS/NAM/GGEM ARE FARTHEST S WITH TRACK AND SUGGEST ONLY MINORACCUM AT BEST. ECMWF REMAINS THE MOST ROBUST OF THE GUIDANCE WITHA SLIGHTLY STRONGER STORM FURTHER N BUT EVEN THE ECMWF CONTINUESTO TREND DOWNWARD ON QPF AMOUNTS. SINCE WE ARE STILL 72 HOURS FROMTHE EVENT DONT THINK WE CAN DISCOUNT ANY SOLUTION. ECMWF ENSEMBLEMEAN IS SIMILAR TO THE OPERATIONAL RUN AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN ISSLIGHTLY MORE ROBUST THAN OP GFS...SO WE ARE LEANING TOWARD AECMWF/GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN BLEND FOR THE FORECAST WHICH WILL RESULTIN A DOWNWARD TREND FOR THE STORM.
