Thoughts on ZR/ sleet in SNE?

On the table for sure, but the ingredients are so mesoscale in nature that we can’t say much beyond there is potential for someone to get a V-day 2007-like scalping, or some bigger ice totals. 

I’m leaning sleet given the cold air depth, but there will be freezing rain somewhere in there too.

Aside from the GFS, most of the guidance has been keeping the big icing threat down to southern half of CT...perhaps parts of RI and even western interior SE MA could get it on the ice if the sfc CF stays pinned far enough south there. But that's not gonna be resolved for at least another 36 hours most likely. 

The Arctic airmass is impressive so I won't be surprised at snow hanging tough for quite a while in areas that eventually get scalped.

It's actually the shortwave I marked here. You can see a secondary WCB forming just to its east.

This shortwave is the one that moves downstream and forces the lee cyclone.

Yes exactly, thats the one that will force the lee cyclone once east of the Rockies (near Texas I think?)

This really does remind me somewhat of some sort of hybrid between Jan 94 and VD 2007 and St Paddy's Day 2007 lol

Lol cept if he leaves it covered in snow. Thinking scalpers here like Scoots said New Haven area. Deep cold to almost the coast

Yeah BOX looks reasonable. Lots of SN and IP even to the NH border. Definitely looks like a nasty ZR threat more central and srn CT I think, esp maybe HVN west. Longitude will help.

What’ are you thinking for the Duxbury Plymouth area?

Trying to figure out whether I’ll miss the game working.

Some white then wet?
