40" for Acton?

Hopefully it's overdoing the BL issues along the coast.  An inch or two here?  I'd lose it.

Looks like a very tough call for inside 495 where 20 miles makes a huge difference.

You read the NAM early. Didn’t you?

Heh. That's pretty damn close. That said, I'm not banking on the nam per se. I used the 12z euro as a guide to make that map. Basically expecting a more amped version of the 12z euro, with higher downstream UL heights and earlier phase.

Let's see how this map from one of Ryan's competitors does:

Holy smokes sign me up for the NAM.  18-24" yes please.  Send winter out with a bang.

[RUNNAWAYICEBERG]

Ok, I’m sober again but hungover...I like the early interaction between the streams and how the trough continues to tilt favorably in the early going. Regardless where the models put the L on the surface, thats a growing signal approaching hecs territory from nyc to maine.

Another couple Nam runs and its going to be BECS, Just keep going higher if need be.

I'd hit the NAM six ways to Sunday. Epic run.

Thing is though, that run didn't stall near ACK.

Expand  

It's moving a lot slower though than earlier runs. Slowing down (but not stalling) will still increase ceiling.

[JC-CT]

So far, BOX is far more aggressive than the local stations. Interesting

I like that it tickled back east a bit. The super tucky, dryslot into CT, look seemed overdone.

You def can't ignore the chance of a pretty wide area of 18"+ right now...I'd like to get the Euro on board though. Right now, it's a bit less crazy about the idea, though even on the Euro, you'd prob get some narrow max zones of 18" in weenie bands where they pivot. But solutions like the NAM/GFS are trying to take up another notch with the slowness and residence time in the commahead.

Right but it’s not in Kansas. nyc to maine covers a pretty large area I believe. I never said Southbury, CT USA.

That statement was more about the Nam, We know how it likes to increase the qpf on runs, So maybe it will continue, That was my thought, Really had nothing to do with Southbury, CT but a general comment to your post.

Kick that trough 20-30mi east and the love is felt to the coast.

Completely agree. Never said it is a lock. I have my thoughts on this since the get go...yes, it is exciting chasing this...but I also understand the rarity of things breaking right. Trust me, I been through way too many letdowns to think a nam/gfs solution is anything but model porn. But the flow is ideal to trigger a bigger event.

Yeah, the thing that bothers me is that obviously they think there will be some taint in the middle of the state, but then only having the NW corner at 5-10" would seem to be low.
