SouthCoastMA Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 the NAM did cut back. 1-2" seems reasonable down this way towards the Cape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 1” along 84 with 2” along 95. Let it happen, add to totals, enjoy a refresher, and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan addressed this aspect last night in his broadcast on TV(I know you live in Boston and don't get to see him), said it will look like nothing all day today, until at which point when it hits the ocean/coast, it will blossom/pop and that's when we will supposedly see some light snow. That's the theory anyway....maybe it doesn't work out that way and it's a nonstarter?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 That is correct. It won't look like anything and then within 1-2 hrs you'll have a broad precip shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big jackpots for this area that I remember are Feb 1983, Jan 1996, PD2 and Jan 2016. Jan 2016 was better than Jan 2015 here and made up for the Euro debacle from the previous year.

ORH_wxman Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Looks like the NW trend has gone as far as it will go on this one...too bad we couldn't get another push, but that is kind of typical. Should be enough for the south coast again and SE MA...but looks like the rest of us will prob just get a coating or flurries. Maybe we'll get a little band pushing north before it exits...RGEM tries to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean fine NW RI isn’t bad I guess....didn’t want to get into the whole “where is it the best for snow in NE” thing....all I was saying is there are places I would not want to be...mostly along the shore and that SE area.....West Hartford - for its location in the dreaded CTRV - has held its own many times.....sometimes I think that CTRV thing is overplayed.....elevation wise I have to defer to you in WOR or DIT.....definitely on the wrong side there here in WH....

Snugharbor Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Hi guys. Was hoping to get some advice. I'm in in southern RI and have to get to a wake in Putnam at 4. Way up looks fine. If I leave there around 5 am I looking at a disastrous ride back? Or mostly more issues from traffic than actual snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest nws release indicates moderate snow along coast from 7-10 tonight which I'd be OK with as I'd be driving home from CT around 5-5:30 and should be back before it becomes "moderate" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
