Unreal snow growth . Super fluffy now. Like big goose feathers

 

This. If only it would last all day, but looks like spurts of this on and off much of the day. Back edge all the way out in State College. Maybe another 2-4" on top of the 5-6" or so since Saturday?

Also much colder than I anticipated. 16. Roads are always awful when the temp is under 20 (see last week).

almost not snowing at all, maybe 4.5 total....it started to pick up a bit about an hour ago with some better flakes but it just cant sustain itself....seems like everyone else is getting better snowgrowth and has almost double....radar has looked decent out west many times and it just shreds over this area.....its like living on a different planet

7 AM UPDATE...

MVY REPORTED -FZRA LAST HOUR AND SO WILL KEEP WINTER WX ADVSY IN

EFFECT THERE AND ON BLOCK ISLAND. IT MAY BE OK TO EXPIRE AT 8 AM

BUT WE WILL NEED TO CHECK LATEST CONDITIONS BEFORE LETTING IT

EXPIRE. THE COASTAL FRONT APPEARS TO HAVE SHIFTED A LITTLE WEST

FROM THE PLYMOUTH COUNTY COAST OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS. ONE

MIGHT EXPECT SNOWFALL TO INTENSIFY OVER NW PLYMOUTH COUNTY AND

BOS-OWD OVER NEXT FEW HOURS. RADAR SHOWS MORE AREAS OF HEAVIER

SNOWFALL BREAKING OUT ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...ALTHOUGH STILL

FRAGMENTED TO SOME EXTENT. THIS STORM IS NOT LIKELY TO BE

REMEMBERED FOR SNOW FALL INTENSITY BUT RATHER FOR ITS LONG

DURATION. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN TRICKY NEAR THE COASTAL FRONT

WHERE THERE IS A VERY TIGHT GRADIENT.

Watching this loop , you can make out the Very narrow CF band cutting thru Quincy , esp when there are breaks in overcall radar presentation

This band may be obliterating Blue Hills as well.

 

 

I feel pretty good in how this played out, fit what I suspected the climo would lay out.  Models continued to want to pin the heaviest on the north shore and although snow totals may be high, the WE won't match the 12 hour outputs IMO up there, the heavy stuff is definitely south.

You can see pretty clearly on radar Ct/Ri/Se mass to the s shore has best radar signature

 

Pretty solid from ORH to 128 loop as well

 

Not sure the N shore ever gets some real love from this one

 

The 4km RPM looks good from here on out. Rocks the N Shore especially early afternoon. Still snowing in SE PYM cty
