Nice morning here.

I'm wondering if models are shutting off that firehose a bit too quickly. It looks like at least another 4 hours...but perhaps much longer.

 

They agree on a warmup at 850 as soon as it shuts off. But I don't think that happens if it doesn't & good dynamics stay in place.

 

At least a few more hours per radar.

This morning Harvey was saying it'll shut down pretty quickly from N to S and be done by mid afternoon. His model even showed some breaks in the overcast by 5ish.

Looking at the radar, seems like that's not going to happen. Just seems to be stuck.

Anyone see any signs of this shifting out of here anytime soon?

Winding down in ALB.  7" OTG.  Nice little storm!  Like all three 6" storms this year, this one featured long duration light snow with a few periods of moderate.  All were generally low impact for ENY (though Dec 26 was slightly more disruptive due to cold and time of year).

 

In my 5 years living in BOS I never experienced a 15" storm.  For those in it now, enjoy the fck out of the last several hours.  20" should be treasured... it is a rare and special thing.

Looking at radar, it looks as if BOS metro will have some serious commuting issues this afternoon - especially for people leaving on the early side. As far as TV Met guidance this morning (wrt clearing conditions/improving roads by noon-ish) - I think we're in for some trouble...assuming this thing doesn't wind down in the next couple of hours in E MA

At downtown crossing in BOS, the snow is sticking to the streets even after plows and salt trucks come by...just coming down too hard for any sun angle to overcome ot...it also helps that BOS was 28F last hour. Pretty awesome for nearing noontime in March with a semi-stale airmass.

Seems like it's really hanging in.  I cannot believe I'm at 32 and ripping here.

 

Let's face it, historic storm. 

 

I've only seen a couple  fujiwhara's in my lifetime.  When they work out they're epic.

In the 18-19 inch range now.

 

Noyes was the bearest of bears today, and acted all week like he was smarter than everyone else.

 

In fairness this was a hideous performance by almost all public facing meteorologists.  NOAA had done a good thing by raising warnings and putting out 8-10 and then inexplicably bailed on that and went with an advisory event for areas getting 20".  So they don't get a free pass either they were slow to pick up on the storm, slow to adjust up, adjusted down for no apparent reason, and then never caught up again, this was a colossal failure but I don't think we should single out any forecaster.

 

The ONLY one that I saw that at least highlighted the potential was Harvey, but let's face it he is busting horribly low too.  The huge difference is he made it very clear this could happen.

That's run of the mill in Ct the past few years lol.
