gfs keeps getting colder

 

Yeah, temp issues falling by the wayside as it shifts east.   Euro was the first to signal this at 12z when it jumped east early from the prior run.  We'll see what it does.

UK gets out in lala land where we risk not getting the tug back at all but it's always been the east outlier.

Anyone watching TWC? (I couldn't help myself.) They have had the same accumulation map up all day; has PVD in 3-6" and the Cape in 1-3". Cantore also said the 00Z GFS comes out at midnight...

Remember the Discovery channel in the early 90's?  Actually did science.  Now "realiy" TV. TWC is a goofball distraction, like every other Left wing media outlet.  Turn it off.

GFS definitely east. Hoping it gets pulled back as it closes.

 

People, Rollo ...etc... These are not red flags really.   No one has "spiked footballs" this early; the conversation has been primarliy around what the NAM has shown at 00z - I don't think anyone is actually planning on 34" of snow.   

 

The 18z NAM wobbled, then came back.  Why can't the GFS do the same?

The trend this evening is not kind for me, expecting the EURO to continue. Still think I verify a warning snow, but probably a low end 6-10" instead of the 12"+ that I was expecting before this GFS. We are about 30 hours out from the start, these were key runs if the snowier trend was to continue, and it looks like at least for me it will not. So, with that, I retire for the evening, and with all you EURO watchers the best of luck. Think snow!

just saying both GFS and RGEM are all east with a later phase, favors Mass and NH...

i'm not sure if they are both out?? i dont think

 

 but this is a big concern of mine for tonite, i just don't buy yet that bos is gonna have their 6'th 20+ snowfall in the last 100 years this week. I'm saying this because at this time frame (as in tonite 0z)  is a PRIME TIME for models to make a shift East if they are. Were 36-40 hrs out and the storms are both on the playing field and i'm just concerned that all. rant/jump over

RGEM is out.  I don't think it's as far east as the UK and GFS.  It looks alright to me to be honest.

Well the GFS is the 8-12 I told Kevin we had a shot of getting lol. 

 

Still a very nice hit on every model.

I'm actually chuckling about this situation.

Here we are, some of us with Blizzard Watches over our heads, and the 0z models throw us a curveball. Mets from the NWS to local media give us 1-2 feet of snow to have it cut in half in some cases.

And poor BOX is really screwed now with their 18-24" over almost the whole CWA.

CT people - I know it's frustrating but try to keep the iMBY posts to a minimum. These threads are flying along and we're trying to keep them clean and readable. 

 

It really seems there are those with fingers poised over the negativity button on the keyboard, and really just want to complain as their primary motivation.  

 

I mean, people ... if this falls down to a mere 4-8" type deal, given the road we've come this winter, you count your blessings and move on -

So nobody even feels there could be convective feedback in the models tonight? Seriously have you not seen the radar down south tonight? This thing looks very convective.

 

Yeah it's a very dynamic system. Convection is going to give the models fits lol.

I hope I didn't jinx you guys by getting a hotel out here (marlboro MA). When I went to school in Pitt they didn't see a snowstorm of over 6" until I left. 

 

Any changes to either branch will create big swings back and forth. It's a delicate situation and going to be a nailbiter until the end.

Looks like all snow right?

I think all along there's been a convective struggle but that doesn't mean it has to work in our favor either.  It's one run of the OP models.  The key to me will be the Euro if it delays the phase further then that's probably the train to be on.  If it holds the course, great.  NCEP guidance has tended to run left of reality on earlier systems this winter...but we'll see/different pattern.

Jeez some of these posts were making it sound like its a wide right escape and a dusting lol.

Well it really did make a huge difference here. Boston still looks to get destroyed though, and I don't think much will prevent that from happening.
