how much verbatim for BOS? PVD?

on the wx weenie  EURO maps there's a general 24 inches of snow for PVD 22 ish BOS and it looks like maybe 26 fallriver, middleboro /taunton /plympton area. just a pounding for SE SNE and even my local 10 miles north of boston gets like 18. so just a brutal beatdown of snow, and weenies are rollin around nude.  

 

it's like a 16 hr snow blitz from hr 92 to 108

I usually hate estimating snowfall from midrange model runs... but it's hard to resist with this Euro run.  It's a fantastic run for SE New England because of the nearly perfect track and the fact that the low center slows and rapidly intensifies right in the sweet spot.  A quick estimate off the Euro looks like max totals 1-2 feet, with heaviest south of Boston.  In fact double digit snows back west to about I-91.  A very snowy run.  Even places well west and north get significant snow, though not as heavy as locations directly impacted by the coastal low.

 

Great trends tonight, but everything has to go right for a huge storm.  A moderate snowstorm seems much more attainable.  The mid-level setup looks fragile.

Woke up to the cold from hell this morning. Ugh. Awful.

At least the overnight model trends cheered me up a bit. The 00z GEFS members were amazingly flat. Still some work to do but encouraging trends for sure.

Is this going to be the case where yet again where a model that's been bad at times in this range very recently steals the show? Euro won't budge, that's an epic snowstorm.

Gfs has caved to the idea of a coastal but still misses pretty far se with the bulk. The hurdle seemingly all year was getting to about 72 hours without the more aggressive solutions falling apart. This run or next...hopefully others join the euro.

lol...6z NOGAPS is amped and over the outer Cape.

EC ens mean has the 0.75" line running from coastal ME to about here and southward to about HFD/BDR. They also seem to be about 6hrs faster than the op.

 

Schwartz Synoptic Seven says KURO bust.

 

I feel like this is our best chance at something legit in a long time.

Ahhh woke up and saw the ECMWF and thought, well this outta be a sh*t show in here today, lol. 

 

I wouldn't even look at that model right now if I lived in the BOS-PVD corridor.  Its just too good to even comtemplate in those areas... you'll just be let down even if you get 8" instead of 18", lol.

I hate seeing something so nice looking 4 days out, but looks legit to an extent. Even the gfs would be a nice snow for many.

 

Its probably prudent to start at least bumping up POPs... this is one of those storms that the real pros will slowly ramp up in forecasts.  Some on-air met is going to get called out for only going with "at least some light snow likely" when all the weenies want them to start mentioning the word blizzard, lol.

Why does anyone care?  Haven't you figured him out, yet.   Kevin is a lot of fun.  Good guy.  I like him.  But he does this crap on purpose.  He doesn't REALLY think - at times - what he purports; he's just doing it to get a rise out of people, and also - part of him is trying to get the Mets and others to argue for an event, so that he can play the reverse psycho-babble angle.  

:whistle: You'd think people would know that by now..but judging from some of the nasty posts overnight,,and pot shots this morning..I guess they didn't get it

And at 12z all the models will have lost the storm.  You should've just "stayed the course" with no storm on Friday.

 

As soon as you get on-board this is gone so stick with the plan ;)

Did people really think I was going with a miss.. Have i ever done that? Has anyone ever known me to downplay an event? 

 

Still some really awful comments overnight..but it is what it is.

 

Let's hope the trends continue today. If this comes any farther west mixing becomes an issue for some

Hey the "miss" call is a safe bet for a snow lover... if it misses, you are disappointed but you can claim you were right... if it works out, you're happy, don't care that you were wrong, and claim reverse physcology. 

 

I think most here knew something was up when you were expecting this to keep trending east.  When it was showing a big NNE bomb, we did expect you to assume it was over-amped and would trend just enough SE to hit SNE, but not far enough to miss. 

 

I think everyone knows with you that it is safe to assume you will be calling for it to trend north/south/east/west (circle correct answer) so that I-84 is in the sweet spot.  That's what is built into the KFS model.
