Thats a near blizzard for eastern MA...snow isn't overly prolific, but that is a lot of wind with still solid 6-8" type snows with even more on the Cape. H5 isn't far off from being something a lot bigger too.

 

Some of the crews from Virginia and south Carolina would barely be home before they'd be needed again.

 

Big one incoming.

 

Reminds me more of 1/25 now in that the models will probably struggle with the particulars for another 24 hours, but it should be a huge storm.

A solid advisory event for here on the GFS, from about Fairfield east it's .5"+ Much improved trend, probably 3-5" here verbatim(Guessing around .35" or so with decent ratios), and if we can get this general theme to play out would not be suprised to see an increase in the QPF as we get closer. Nice start to 0z, lets see what everything else does. (Well, the 0z that we care about, excluding the NAM)

Intresting that UKIE dosen't like it, it was the one model showing it after everything else lost snow earlier in the week. What's the verification scores like for the UKIE, I think the GFS and the EURO beat it, correct?

I was thinking more 2/24/89. I know nobody likes to hear that one.

 

 

That was a good storm for SE New England. Bust back here though...we got about 4.5" when 1-2 feet was forecast. I guess it was better than what further southwest got...NYC-PHL got nada I recall when they were supposed to get slammed. Meanwhile ACY right on the shore got like 18"

Toss nam and crazy uncle hug the gfs...the model that absolutely failed on the blizzard.......I will ride the euro for 1k alex

Yup, if the EURO dosen't bite, or show signs of trending towards the GFS, than this is taken with a giant grain of salt. Not staying up to find out though, will let it be what it will be.

The last time I checked euro was 1, uncle 2, gfs 3 in order of verification scores.

wait so UKIE was the only model being consistent with a major storm, then GFS agrees, then UKIE says nevermind.. this is crazy what a difficult set up 

 

 

I've wondered how its scores are so high, it seems as if its had a terrible winter overall and that its never consistent with any particular storm.

Suprising, this winter at least, the uncle has truly been the crazy uncle, going all over the place with just about everything. Wonder where the new GGEM will rate in there, my guess is it beats the GFS.
