Just hideous. 

 

What's funny is the 0z NAM actually is quite crap with the "secondary" that tries to develop.  I wouldn't even discount a solution where we see such a weak circulation develop, we may hardly get any QPF at all...or if anything just some scattered snow showers or very light freezing drizzle and less than a tenth of any precip

Yeah the first system does nothing... I wound up going mostly cloudy and 35-40 on Tuesday assuming the Monday storm would do nothing to push things along. 

OT but Ryan, you looked a little surprised when they cut to you for the teaser on the 11PM newscast tonight. Very nice job on the forecast though, you outlined everything in a very organized fashion.

Flurries to fzdz ...pay no attn to the WWA

 

Did we not just go through a situation where everyone was getting on BOX for not putting out advisories for a 20 minute freezing rain shower around the morning commute time?

 

I can't blame them for putting up a WWA after that situation and any chance for freezing drizzle or freezing showers.

Thats fine but there is no reason to have 1-4 inches of snow across the region when no one even sees an inch

I'm going with the under.

 

 
Tonight: Cloudy...snow...mainly after midnight. Snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches. Near steady temperature in the mid 20s. East winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow 80 percent.

Monday: Snow...sleet and freezing rain in the morning...then sleet...freezing rain likely with a chance of rain in the afternoon. Total snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches. Ice accumulation around a trace. Highs in the mid 30s. East winds 5 to 10 mph...becoming west in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation 90 percent.

 

Stayed relatively warm here last night--wind kept up, perhaps that's why.

 

22.3/13

 Most of the region does not have that range, nor does the advisory itself.   The advisory calls for 1-2.    Forecasts vary from an inch down south by you, up to 3 in the hinterlands of northwern Worcester County ranging up to 4 for us in GC.  

 

I expect you will get an inch plus, fwiw.

Thats what I mean. Their snowmap has 1-2 here ranging 2-4 by you. Neither of which is happening

Looks like a nice batch of precip may take shape S of Ma/Ct border by mid evening from west then east to Bob. And then lift north throughout nite. I like Kevin's spot for 1-2. I guess he is trying reverse psychology?

 

This may also include SE MA too. The system is an abomination..but I see nothing wrong with 1-2. BOX maps make sense. Sometimes these predecessor bands can me a little more of a producer, but best to keep it conservative for now.

Man you are usually wildly optimistic but when bearish you're really bearish.

But you also have to know that they are really only calling for an inch for you and maybe 2" for MPM. But their map shows that if you don't focus on the higher numbers in the range, that's just how the program words it...same if they put 3.3" in the grid, it often comes out 3-7" of new snow.

I don't think their forecast is unreasonable.

I almost prefer this Kevin.
