Nam has .41 qpf BOS per FOUS including the .04 progged the first 6 hours.

 

vs. 0.01 qpf BOS on 12z Nam... I can't remember a winter when it's been this frequently so bad in < 24 hrs

 

I think your 4-8 call is a good one here. GFS keeping me on edge for higher... baroclinic zone per 850 temps is further west than progged on NAM, and we who the hell knows how the too-many-chefs plays out off the Carolinas.

Woa woa - let's be fair. If for some miraculous convenience to those that want a big event, this thing becomes a bigger impact than currently forecast, no model is doing particularly well -

You know ... this bang-up on the NAM act really strikes me as the scape-goat phenomenon. It's just so popular to blame and admonish the model, people (not necessarily you per se) knee jerk react against it when it really isn't fair to do so.

It gives the DGEX a break from bashing

Yeah that one is the winner. This is going to be a bad storm. I hate throwing out numbers but nerf to head I think 10-12+ here

Usually you're conservative, so you must feel pretty confident. Snow should be dryer this time around so hopefully the area is spared extensive outages
