Marty walsh is a contender for the democratic nomination for governor in four years. Was he consulted in this decision? What was his take? he'll certainly be asked tomorrow. He certainly better have an answer. Little things like this matter. Just ask Lindsay. No one remembers anything about him except for the fact that a snowstorm is named after him.

Briz600 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 To be fair this thing was media hyped to be a big storm. Given the last few storms, and the poor model consistency I don't think anyone wanted to take chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Good snow growth here but still not all that heavy. Low level dry killing us even under the better echoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I mean... if an rgem or something verified there could be some legit closings tomorrow but I see no reason to call it now based on how fickle this has proven to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 1 hour ago, weatherwiz said: What I am a bit shocked about is the lack of more rapid deepening of the sfc low. I think that is one reason which is sort of holding this back. While the mid-levels are strengthening (albeit slowly) the result isn't occurring at the surface. Unfortunately the models actually don't strengthen the low much more...perhaps going back to what I was looking at earleir with how they weaken this low and begin a transition process to a second low development well east of the Cape. Due to good ascent though, even with slowly strengthening mid-levels the radar will slowly fill in. If there is some plausible reason that could allow for the sfc low to strengthen a bit quicker I would think we see precip generation quite rapidly Remember the lead wave kind of mucked up the baroclinic zone. So this wave has less to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s their setup/secret?? We need to employ their tech over here so this forum doesn’t crash in the future. you realize that accuweather is a commercial for-profit enterprise, right? their secret is that they have income, employees on the payroll, advertisers, etc. therefore they have the $$ to put into their digital infrastructure. and you realize that this board is not a commercial enterprise, right? no employees, very limited income (which is why they ask for donations), and very limited infrastructure. the people that "work" on this board are volunteers.
