Euro's got 1-2 inches back to me and Will

Ahh I don't have access to the EURO QPF, but the NAM and GFS have 1-2" back to Will, not sure about your area though... there will definitely be a NE to SW gradient.

I bet you pull an inch or so before it completely dries out down in the valley. You're elevation may save you here from drying air on a NE flow.

Yeah, not even .1'' of QPF for him so an inch is probably his ceiling on the Euro. 1-3'' N and NE of the Pike.

Having Euro QPF maps is awesome.

trace to 1" seems like the way to go for Kev, RI, probably over to me and the sw 1/2 of the Cape. 1-3" north of there with maybe a bullseye around Cape Anne/SE NH/SW Maine of 2-4/3-6 but it could just miss.

Ptown 2-4 and the lower cape if its cold enough.

This if from here on out.... (there's a 2-5 hour window from this point on where we could get accumulations in EMA)

I think you guys are going to get a nice snowfall out of this... easily plowable in my mind. I'd say its a "surprise" snowfall but everyone on this board has been all over it for days. It might be a surprise to some of the general public though judging by some of the NWS forecasts out there right now.

Thank you, well said.

Yeah I'm not expecting anymore than 1-2

By the looks of the NAM, you may get 6-12 inches of snow by Friday.

You can tell the NWS is puzzled or the gears are turning hard because its 4:20pm and BTV has issued no zones or AFD yet.

Probably not exactly sure what to make of all this... verbatim QPF off the GFS is advisory level snows and the NAM is warning level snows for a lot of northern and northeastern VT, a lot of NH and ME.

40 dbz echoes over nws gyx right now. RAIN. 37F. Keep that in mind.

That's brutal. Intellicast radar showing it as snow now over GYX... but we know how off these winter radar products can be. Usually though intellicast is pretty darn good.

I also didn't realize how much it torched today down on the coastal plain... lots of upper 30s and even low 40s down in the lower elevations near the coast.

I feel bad for these guys, this is a bear of a forecast. Absolutely nasty forecast to make and as our local office said prone to busting.

The little s/w has surprised out in MN delivering some good snows. The RUC hasn't abated from the continued ramping up each run of that feature.
