Lots of confusion..lots of questions..tough one for most places

 

 

I don't think the forecast is that hard...basically 6-10 south of the pike with a pellet-fest for a while tomorrow morning until you get maybe to HFD-PVD line and then you might go less south of that line. 8-12 (iso 12"+) north of the pike into S VT/S NH...maybe some pellets tickling BOS-ORH for a couple hours.

 

Then maybe an inch or so on the back end..maybe 2 out east.

Euro bumps total qpf over 1"+ up here now

 

What is it spitting out over in GC?

 

I thought of you as I was going down the road today.  There were a couple of environmental cops out on their sleds--I thought that would be a great job for Jeff.  :)

 

 

I don't know what the colors represent, but I like being in that bulls-eye hole.  It just feels right.

 

Wonder if Maine never melts out this summer?

 

Don't worry--the black flies are laying in wait.

Yeah agreed. This is a pretty average forecast in terms of difficulty.

This might be the most difficult to forecast storm of the winter.

It already is.  The evolution of this event has changed dramatically, on a daily basis for the past week.  15 million will be getting a lot less snow than forecast 48 hours ago and for areas outside of Boston metro this will further decrease confidence in snow forecasts.

Thankfully is not a tough forecast up here! Snow, snow, and more snow.

Sorry, I gotta gloat a little after this past week. Still, hope everybody minimizes their taint.

 

You're right in it not being a tough one up here.

 

Most people on the board will be doing well.  CT/RI/SE Mass run some risk if things continue to march north, but time's running out on that train.

Sorry but that doesn't make sense. Big storms mean future big snowfalls are guaranteed? One storm, no matter how big, does not always represent an overall pattern for a season. The blizzard does pretty much guarantee we will do ok for our total snowfall this winter, and for that I am thankful.

Well of course we're not in a pattern bringing feet of snow every week (I think). But to think the pattern hasn't changed from dry and cold to wet and cold is silly. It has.

I could go for a 8" fluffernutter...our larger systems have been condo crushers after the Thanksgiving fluff.

the last 8 of my 28 was pure air, have 20 left which includes 3 from earlier and 1.5 from Friday. 39 in Jan with below normal. I remember posting Jan 10th after the epic meltdowns and persistence posts that it will be funny when we end up above normal snow and below normal temps. Its funny and I hope all learn something. This storm is playbook 94

8-14 with ratio Lollies to 16, what separates this from standard SWFE rules is crazy east inflow and the cold. Congrats Dendrite

Ginxy, what's good for Dendrite is good for me.  We are 20-25 miles apart.  Really cold air lurking up here.  15.7F at midday without a cloudy in the sky is pretty impressive almost 6 weeks past the solstice.

Doesn't matter it's distributed. Absurd.

I really thought I would not read another SNE meltdown this winter, guess what lol

Should be another fun storm to nowcast. Those text numbers are absurd rates. Couple of things for the peeps on the edge, those marginal soundings get isothermal and you get QPF snowbombed once its lighter then you sleet drizzle but that is quickly replaced with cold wrap around

I'm guessing, but I think if I manage a foot from this, I'll still be lagging annual norms.  What I'm not guessing is that even if I manage a foot from this, I'll still really be sucking in respect to met-winter norms.  Got a whole lotta catching up to do to raise the grade.  The current D- is likely to get a boost tomorrow.

Yeah the backend looks like a nice 1-3 spot 4 type deal..Those things very often surprise people
