What should happen from here on out..we should see radar start filling back in to the west and sw as the morning progresses and especially this afternoon..So we should see a nice organized shield move from west to east as the mid level centers develop and move east

This better happen in a hurry.  Things are really moving along.  Hope it does though.

what's preventing the warmer air from really working in?  is the system tracking a bit further SE than modeled?  

 

Anytime the depth of atmosphere between the 850 and 700mb levels attempts and/or succeeds in closing off SE of a given region, rule number 1 ... you look at warming with a "degree" (nyuk nyuk) of incredulity.  

 

I was giggling when I saw rain fears N of PVD... that said.  I am actually surprised a little that the transition axis penetrated as far as it did.  

 

Be that as it may ... up here in the interior/NE Mass we got a beautiful low impact gorgeous, classic looking New England snowfall.  Wouldn't even call it "storm" in the sense/spirit of what storming means.  It's just low wind, 31F uniform aggregate snow at about .5 visibility ...at times a little less.   I measured 3.5" 45 minutes ago, and we're in a bit of heavier burst now.  

 

Back edge races through CT though, and it gradually wanes to a  drizzle/snizzle festering afternoon it would appear...

nope... Pretty much over for you down there.  You may get that under the radar drizzle/freezing drizzle/gains and/flurries, if the column stays saturated under shallow inversion that's typical post these sort of events, but the better lift/dynamics are scooting past.

 

Folks, it is typical also for open progressive waves in fast-ish flows to beat out modeling/timing by some.

Same here in coastal Maine.  Been like this all winter.  Nice low impact storms.

Absolutely incorrect. Take a look at radar's to the west. It's coming together now..Not sure what you're talking about TBH

I think it will be intense until about 1 or 2, but I foresee a bit of a lull before it picks back up around 4. But I hope you're right.
