Feel very confident on 10" right now. I see no reason to sway from from the Euro/GFS/RGEM right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolri_wx Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 4 minutes ago, The 4 Seasons said: OKX not BOX The OKX forecast area may not see the snowfall rates that lead to the reduced visibility required for blizzard criteria. If their snowfall predictions go up, it means that they're catching some of the heavier banding that may allow the criteria to be met. But I would agree they definitely didn't word that correctly in their discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4 Seasons Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 If GFS is correct, maybe GON wont be a snow hole for once. No surprise, NAM has best FGEN occuring in central CT and MA with good omega in central areas as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see NWS as a scientific expert profession that should not be so influenced by optics in the public eye. Have you seen all the silly winter weather advisories this season that ignored the criteria simply because it was snow during commute time?

TheSnowman Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 NWS Finnally Upgraded to what's we've talked about for days. And what Ray has said for a week+. 10"-14" / 16". * WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Travel will be very difficult to impossible. Total snow accumulations of 10 to 14 inches, with localized amounts up to 16 inches, are expected. Increasing westerly winds with times with gusts up around 40 mph, downed tree limbs and power outages are possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxsniss Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Never made sense to exclude Boston from blizzard warning vs. other coastal counties 18z NAM... actually looks a tick west of 12z, more like 6z thru 12hours... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 This is impossible to really forecast for Ct. I believe there is a chance the best of the deathband just crushes somewhere in that state. Tolland honestly looks juicy down to L.I. Its becoming quite likely this is gonna kick ENE around 38.5-39S of B.M imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkO Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I'm liking the look of this run of the NAM. It seems like it's finally got it's siht together and not some multi-personality strung out crack whore. Apply the 2/3 qpf adjustment and run with it.
