Yep and wherever the northern wall is...the bands will pile into it as the radar slowly shows the returns orienting E W to N/S and eventually NW to SE as the low pulls away.

I can envision three different jp zones......a general one over cc in association with the CCB, another in the oe streamer on the s shore, and the final at that northern wall.

I know we are on the fringes up here for the main event but maybe some extended steady light snow over the NW areas as the snow moves North?

 

 

Yeah you'll get steady light snows I think...it won't be like a wall where one town gets 10" and 5 miles NW gets 1"...not that extreme I don't think. The initial surge north should actually get to ALB and S VT.

Thinking back over time....I can't really recall a strong coastal that had the northern wall set up just to my s.....subsidence zones, sure...

 

I think the closet call was Jan 1996.....the northern wall was over about Andover.

I had about 20", and ,Methuen, about 10 mi to my north on the NH border, had a mere 5".

Gfs is close to having the best comma head stuff miss me. But using the orh rule of thumb....best banding usually ends up nw.

Multifaceted storm as it takes a bit longer to organize

I had near 10" just east of MHT and that was before I did 6hr clearings.

I can't believe how this is the EXACT same storm as the Jan. 2-3 Freezzard.  

 

- Extremely Cold Temperatures for a 6"+ Snowfall  

- The First piece looks good and then sucks when it gets here  

- The second piece comes out of nowhere, looks good but is too far Out to Sea  

- We Nickle and Dime our way to 0.5" - 0.7" but luckily the ratios are good so it's a 5-10 storm with some 12" amounts on the cape 

- OES happens on the cape at the end.

You may get dryslotted for a time tomorrow night. The whole banding NW rule is due to mid level processes that are identifiable. It's fairly easy to identify them, but oscillations east and west make it difficult to say where it happens. This is why I told pickles to relax. The best banding may actually be in CT and central MA up to NE MA for a time before shifting east. This storm will look weird on radar. It won't be a meaty CCB moving up from the south....it will be this 600 mile long band Moving in with echoes feeding into it from the south as it moves NW and does what Will describes. This move east and probably gets a boost as the CCB clips the Cape. Obviously OES stuff in there too.

Thanks Will,  I'll be thrilled if we can pull a 2-5" deal out here while those E hopefully get 2-3X that. I'm of course in favor of NW trends.  Radar and WV will be good entertainment watching this evolve. .

Huh? From what I understand there is only one piece to this storm. Not sure where you're coming from.

Agreed. I sense multiple meltdowns coming Tuesday. What I'm hoping Scott is this time is that no easterly component crops up. nNE winds should keep most of ema in low level OE snows in between bands

If it were up to me we'd have no boxing day references ever.  Hated that storm and it's east flow.  Think this one may feature a similar band orientation as Nemo, just less in all ways.  No shaking houses and 45 dBZ.  Impressive nonetheless. 

 

i was living in NJ and was under the garden state parkway superband. total overnight nakedness. but i know spots in SNE got shafted. its how it goes with wrapped up beasts.....
