My thoughts and some things I debated/considered:

-  how far back west of Worcester to push 8+ amounts... lots of evidence this is trending more amped NW, + better SLRs there, so this is more NW of the jack zone on Euro/RGEM

- is there potential for > 12"... tough given quick hitter, but I would put that in south coast to PVD to NW CT area

- other mesoscale features: I posted about CF enhancement earlier but this moves too quickly to really set up and have discernible impact

Pretty happy with this. The distribution was fairly accurate with the jack zone along the BOS-PVD-NWCT corridor.

Obviously I was too low in that area. I posted the mesos in the other thread... there was some evidence from the RGEM that this would be an open wave on steroids, but only in the last 6 hours did the other guidance and hi-res models really come aboard. I think I was also all a little snake-bitten from Saturday and was initially waving caution flags Saturday evening.

Synoptically, this felt relatively simple... an open wave marching straight northeast with intense 850-700 fronto painting a jack zone at the northwest edge of an 850 low. Other than advance of the mix line, there were no smaller features like far northwest deformation bands pivoting over an area or coastal fronts with enough residency to need more nuance.

Yeah, nice job! And great analysis before, during and after the storm!

Nice to squeeze out a footer or even just double digits in a season like this one.

About 20" in 5 days from 3 separate systems. I'll take that any Winter no matter how bad it's been.
