It says people typically are asleep between 3:30AM and 5AM.

I think the lack of posts is due to most of them not going to bed until a few hours ago.

What time do you have to drive tomorrow?  Even Rt 2 should be ok by later in the afternoon.

Since when has sleep kept people from posting about an impending storm?  :) 

 

My daughter's plan has us leaving around 7:30.

I'm worried about sleet getting into S VT and SW NH. The GFS is cold, but I wouldn't touch it with a 10ft pole right now. RGEM/EC blend and call it a day. NCEP needs to go tabula rasa and start anew.

 I'm fully prepared for a ip-fest.

I'm worried about going from light rain straight to sleet later.  Still big bust potential with this storm.

That's a pretty nice Saturday here. I'm thinking that may be my best chance. Euro was pretty mild overnight.

I think the front end will be pretty disappointing for most. Lots of sleet and kitchen sink precip. I'm most interested in the 6-10 hour period between 09z and 18z Saturday.

Every 3 hrs. I treat it mostly as a nowcast tool. It's unstable Beyond 24 hrs out.

Ah that makes sense.

HRRR really likes the northern ORH Hills later today.  East slopes of the Berks and ORH Hills with big elevational gradient despite widespread snow.  Sleet storm ripping south of the Pike.

Will i havent been following tbe trends regarding the first half of storm at all.

Is this like a 1-3 or 2-4 deal for lwm by late evening or midnite or even less is likely.

As we get closer to go time this is definitely starting to look more interesting for C/E MA than it is for W MA or S VT.  

Expand  

I think S VT will be fine. Could be a bit iffy south of there but we will see. It's no lock that things work out over eastern areas either. I absolutely love the midlevel look early tomorrow but we still need to make sure things dynamically cool. The RGEM going warmer at 06z really bothers me. It started looking like that NAM run where it took forever to cool the CCB.

I would think way up in LWM should get that much by midnight. But I think sleet will get past them for a while. I just don't see a big WAA slug either. It's more like this steady light to moderate precip until the CCB starts taking over and really ups the rates.

Will- are the NW RI hills and NE CT hills somewhat close to the Ma border a wild card; it looks like the should be able to pull 4-8. How much is sleet or ice?

The GFS way HORRIBLE with the 3/14 threat. Never saw the west trend.

Looks like the overnight runs held serve. 6z NAM cooled but who cares what's going on with that thing. Still a really odd look. 

SNH, RT 2, and NEMA crowd needs to start confidently chucking. 

Expand  

If the RGEM verifies won't be so many chuckles.

RGEM/NAM warm/west consensus is hard to ignore. Really difficult to discount considering how well that blend worked in 3/14. RGEM has been pretty good at seeing how tucked in these can get.

It could be an interesting difference between you and me with this one.  But, I'm pretty sure we ping along with everyone else south of VT/NH.

Its really not whether this tucks in or not though. All about the waa push from the primary and how quickly mid levels can cool afterwards when the coastal gets going.

In the silence of the responses, I can hear the sound of sleet hitting the pavement in the not so distant future.

Ping. Ping. Ping.

Lol RGEM chucks them high and far for the areas I just mentioned. I just don't think those areas have much to be worried about.

Yeah they aren't that far west. It's all about that midlevel warm layer. They are just more aggressive wth it.
