What issue am I making of it, other than it's there?

It'll limit totals in some areas, that's about it.

This will be a quick 6-8hr system out W and maybe a few hours longer

this argues for a 12-14 hr or so deal

 

left panel says longer duration for SNE

 

Right panel says longer duration for CNE/maybe parts of NE mass

I don't think it's nearly the issue you're making it out to be.

 

Yeah--even if it cuts your total in half, we're only talking an inch or two differential.

 

Cant post my maps, Better for folks over SE, RI, CT, Mass, NH and Maine back to here, .50", Jackpot DE Maine .75"

 

Thanks--steady with my 2.

 

When we post these maps it doesn't mean they are right or that we believe them, just posting for weather hype.

 

Fixed. :)

 

Nipply out.

 

19.3/7, gusting to 20.

Meh, lazy meteorology. Surface temps have nothing to do with the ratios. NAM/GFS have a pretty good warm nose (to -5ish C just west of BOS). That will have a much larger impact on ratios. I would expect regional average snow ratios from this event (maybe a tickle higher at the onset of precip).

 

 

Yup - yet I see it all the time from NWS to TV to bad hobbyists.

You never know.  .2-.3" QPF with 520dm thicknesses and a possibly unstable layer.  Biggest QPF won't be well west, but there could still be some decent snow.

 

 

Yep, back away from the best qpf might have pretty good snow growth. A couple tenths could translate to adivsory criteria snow with 700mb temps of -12C
