ray will not like the new box snowfall map

 

2-4 near 128

 

4-6 to Billerica/Andover

 

they aren't buying any mostly snow front end until outside 495

 

10-14 N ORH to wa wa

 

14-18 MPM

Why?

Matches my thoughts from yesterday quite well.

6-12" outside of 495

4-8" imby

3-6" inside rt 128

2-5" se of Boston.

 

Folks keep acting like this is some big enigma, when its been pretty apparent how this plays out fpor the past day or so.

6z runs were interesting...wasn't expecting that after the east trend at 00z.

-21F this morning here...plenty of cold in the north country.

Everyone should read the ATL AFD...that's stuff Blizz dreams about, using words like catastrophic, paralyzing, crippling, etc in an AFD.

Thanks for the tip..

Someone will see over a foot, and perhaps comfortably so, but it won't be withinn 75 miles of me.

 

Haven't really changed my thinking it stinks for me and like I told Josh a few days ago there's no solution that works for the Cape.

 

The jackpot will be Berkshire to Sunday River and on either side of that line which gels well with what everyone seems to be saying at this stage.

 

I hope PF gets in on it but he may not, I'm not yet buying the west Euro...having the UKMET on your side usually isn't a great thing.

There's a lot more snow for eastern areas on the 6z NAM than what I expected based on the comments. This is after looking at the hi-res NAM. Verbatim it would be very heavy wet snow at 32.5 degrees or so. Just the kind to cause tree problems. Precarious of course since it relies on dynamic cooling and huge lift.

 

I think the BOX 2-5" forecast or 2-4" is reasonable but there is a chance of a positive bust if we get slammed super hard before the warmth surges in aloft.

 

Eastern areas have cleaned up so far this winter, I'm glad the wealth is being shared a bit more with this storm.

I was surprised to see bob and darren hold last night's call with upton going 10-14 overnight for the western half of the southern counties....someone is changing their forecast after the euro today and someone else is hitting a homerun

Northern Fairfield Cty always does well in these setups...Upton's got the right idea there.

snowing here right now, you all can bite me this may be the most snow I see from this system ha!

 

Light OES I guess with the sun out but pretty.

 

Are people still really using the SREFs in 2014?  They went out with Myspace I thought.

Using?  That's a relative term.  I like to use them for trends and to also have an idea what the NAM will do.  That's about it.

I'm shocked.

That would be sweet. I don't think we've had a two-footer since the October storm. I don't think this one will do it, but we are due.

Unless there is a dramatic shift we get crushed. 10-12" for me 14-18" for you hill folk.

Tough call for school administrator's. I would go cancel rather than risk early dismissal chaos just to squeeze in a half day.

The SREFs are like a bad drug....you know its bad for you but some can't just help themselves. :lol:

 

 

They'll catch on within the next 3 runs.

With the WRF members now it just seems they're utterly useless.   Like a blind man playing darts sometimes it hits the target but in the case of the SREF's it's just by random chance.

Srefs don't look bad...looks like all snow here and good rates too.

 

 

SREFs get the 0C line back to Mitch in the Berkshires and up past dendrite and western Maine....they def don;t keep you all snow.

 

 

But they are likely too warm with that profile.
