I wouldn't call my statement extreme...okay so somebody gets 11-12" after good banding, cool, but to say widespread 10-14" is what I consider extreme. 8-10" with isolated 11-12 is more appropriate.

Fair enough. We'll see I guess. I expect 15-18" totals in some areas with a general 8-12" where it stays mostly/all snow.

 

This isn't the best storm for snow. Tuck those weenies back up into your waist.

:weenie:

I'll have some thoughts after I take care of a few things. Gotta feed the weenie in training.

Decent numbers I think except maybe like 6-9 at BDL.

some tips on weenie training.

Buy him a mini shovel, a ruler(straight not the slanted one you use). Always consult with him about snow flake size, show complete disgust over taint. Never ever say, it's only a couple of flakes. Finally never mention to him in the midst of a snow storm that the Euro ENS torch next week and will melt it all.

I like the replacement HP now showing up in Quebec, also like the overperforming cold all the way to the Gulf Coast, climo time of year, dynamic cooling and omega. 6-12 in CT

Here's our forecast. I feel pretty good about this. 

 

It's a very reasonable layout, Ryan.  My only critique would be to go dramatically lower right about there ...

...because it seems you forgot about the local climo studies wrt shadowing, as the flow comes down off the Tolland dome

Yeah. There's good lift and snow growth for interior regions but the QPF isn't there. The forecasts I've been seeing are bullish for the interior.

I'm with you in that 10"+ may not be quite what was advertised earlier...but it will all come down to the banding and CCB. This almost looks like a Tip favorite, the shredded radar look amongst an absolute firehose band. You are either in it or your not.

Storm of the century it is not. DC will get 6-10. HGR otoh may do very well.

My call:

BOS: 3-6

BDL: 6-12

PVD: 3-6

LWM: 6-10

ORH: 8-14

EEN: 10-14

CON: 10-14

LEW: 12-16

PWM: 8-12

BTV: 14-18

I will mail you a 12-pack or wine of your choice if BTV gets 14-18" and comes in as the jackpot, haha.

I think LEW/Cold Front can take this home.

I think based on models..and climo..and the colder than normal SST's I'd go

 

8-12  RAY to ORH to TOL to DXR

4-8 from HVN to IJD to BOS

3-6 Scooter to PVD to GON 

2-4 rest of Se new Eng

Outside of 495- 6-12"...greatest amounts GC, N ORH hills, s NH/VT

128/495 Belt- 4-8"

Inside of 128- 3-6".

2-5" se of Boston.

As usual, a completely reasonable forecast.

I still think this will be a better "storm" than most of the others we've had this year. Just a whole mess of fun.

 

This will be fun to watch unfold. Probably some surprises in store. I really like how things look for places like the Berkshires, S VT, etc.

The GEFS have an omega bomb front end. I kind of like this feature. I think this will do well for a lot of people. On the other hand with the track the way it is, I think the Dryslot and mix come in with ease....but I think this thump will be big relatively speaking.

 

Yeah it should be pretty big on the front...I'm still wondering if there is a narrow zone of pellets or even ZR around 495 or just northwest for a time after the front end thump.
