I think EURO doesn't link up the disturbances like the GFS does and that is why the EURO is a little off on the storm potential for mid week.

mmm..  not sure I agree; i think has Scott noted the high pressure has been getting a little bit more prominent of a player in the critical thicknesses.  There's even PP "nosing" down and it's January- i mean... what part of nosing PP doesn't win in January.

Yeah it takes time. For me, it was just nice to see some disturbance of the vortex instead of a black hole from top to bottom. It's better for it to be disturbed. That's ok too.

Absolutely!   ...to the point of frustrated comedy, anything different is good - haha

Amazing how strong that high is... like 36 hours ago this was for like Sunday River and Sugarloaf.  That high is so stout that it pretty much prevents more than an inch or two getting up that way on this EURO run.  Just runs into a brick wall of dry air.

Yeah I didn't think it would get that cold into SNE. Thought maybe some mix or whatever into nrn ORH hills, but that's snow down to BOS...or at least close by.

Yeah I was just looking up here and its a cold dry snow.  Like low to mid 20s with 0.4" QPF....I'd take. 

That gradient though from like 21F at Dendrite to 32F and paste at ORH is pretty impressive.  Also probably helping the QPF in that frontal zone.

Euro....Few days ago warm and a system going west.  Couple of days ago a weak secondary with almost enough cold air for a paste up here in CNE.  Yesterday looked like a good wet snow.  Today wagons south.  SNE gets the paste down to almost south of the Mass/RI/CN line  and I'm on the northern edge. All of Mass gets snow NW of Taunton to Plymouth.  Tomrrow high and dry up here with another SNE snowstorm.  Like the trend for you guys down there.

??  It's a nice snow event for you.

Any chance this ticks cold enough for snow here? Seemed like a long shot a few days ago... but that high is pretty stout 

Perhaps, but remember....srfc features like high pressure are driven by the mid and upper level features. Basically you would need the low to be forced a bit more south and better confluence to the north. I'm not sure it can happen...but then again I did not expect a Blue Hills blue bomb like the euro has.

Maybe the map I saw was counting sleet as snow..but the 3 inch line was here.

I love you saw the 3" overhead and interpreted that as 3-5" ;).

Anyway this is the p-type totals.  Doesn't look like it prints any snow there yet but IP/ZR plenty.  The trend has definitely been colder so might just have to wait till 00z to get some snow.

That little weenie appendage if higher amounts from the ORH hills into my area is common in late season events.

That is the elusive paste you always want.  The evolution at 500 is real convoluted. The initial s/w moves in and weakens, and then one sort of dumbbells down to the south of it and helps keep precip going.  Definitely some flags with this.

I'm also fine with heavy icing

I think spots near the MA border could sneak 3-4", but its crazy how the heaver snows parallel the pike.

I mean...this may be an over trend, as I don't expect 9" of paste...but a few inches a good bet.

I am guarded, though bc the EURO is probably rushing development, as it usually does.

That is the reason I never bought that rain to snow event a couple of weeks ago that many pros did.

Curious how the ensembles look. Also, if that ULL to our northeast does not tickle Maine like the euro has, it's a cold rain.  But, these are the storms I would expect the euro to have a better handle on.

Honestly if that exact scenario happened and Ray and Will got 10+..I would be 100% ok with that..almost would want that

It's definitely not an ice look synoptically...almost looks rain or snow. It is mild at 850 somewhat....but I don't see a pronounced warm tongue.

The event is now 66 hours out.....I am confident that the euro has the right idea, which is why I waited until the gf nodded off last night and scrambled to blog. I was blowing it off until I saw the 00z euro, and then hit the keyboard to warn of a potential moderate event, with possible power implications.

The main question in my mind is how quickly is it rushing development bc we can't afford much loss of dynamics in marginal airmass. However, the more impressive +pp may be allotted us more wiggle room in that regard.

I'm leaning snowy north of the pike.

Yes....a buy the pseudo 50/50 locking the +pp in place.

We may finally thread a needle, aside from the one that sne winter enthusiasts have been planning to gouge their eyes out with, heretofore.

GEFS are definitely further north with the whole thing than the EURO.

But the ensembles seem to follow their OPs so my guess is the EPS will be further south (compared to the American guidance) like the Euro OP.

 

Yes.

I don't read much into them at this relatively short lead-
