Looks like warmth wins. Take down all Wsw in SNE. Rains to Maine . It's just a glorified warm front

 

I believe there is a really reasonable point between that absurdity and the EC that will play out.  Don't overplay the warmth, but it's foolhardy to ignore it.

 

9.3/-6

The absolute key is the secondary reinforcement of Arctic air. Watch that tomorrow, if Pf is 10/-5 look out

 

Oh I'll certainly be that.  Guidance has it below zero and snowing up here on Monday.  I know why you guys want the cold pattern.  While 15F-25F would be fine, when we are zero degrees SNE is cleaning up.

 

Still, that doesn't make it ok to ignore mid-level warmth in some spots.  The cold surface air is what is makes sleet more likely than freezing rain in those areas where some small area in the column goes above freezing.

WBZ has cut way back. 2-4 here, 4-8 for ct ri and ma south of the pike and up to cape Anne. West of orh and nw ct more. 2-4/ southern 1/3 of ri

Seems reasonable

 

Seems that the stations out here have it pretty easy--they're going 6-12" through the whole viewing area.  No fuss, no muss.

Arctic cold front means block is stronger forcing baroclinic zone offshore
