What are the chances of a flash freeze on the coast Wed. morning?  None of the on air mets has mentioned what the temp profiles are through the storm.

Most of the mesos seem to have a brief lull between the cold frontal rains and the snow coming in with the followup wave. That would give some time to get salt down without washing it away.

Nope. Not my forecast this time but I’m currently favoring a broad 1-3 in CT. I don’t really see anything over 4” unless we get a more discrete low like Will said. 

I'm thinking a general 2-4 for CT, maybe less on the immediate coast SE CT.

I started a threat thread.

I think flash freezes are overrated here...I don't think we really get many true flash freezes...(at least I don't count a few puddles icing up as a flash freeze...or a few slick spots)

I’m not a big Bastardi “agreeer” but he’s probably right in this case.  The Euro in events like this will tend to be too flat or dry.  I’m definitely thinking more NAM/RGem is more likely.  The NAM May have sucked at 12Z in regards to QPF but that was probably a blip as it still looked okay otherwise

it occurs to me ... folks may not be thinking about this - or are...who knows.  But, we're looking at a standardized PG layout on these charts.  

What may appear to be pure ANA by layout/construction of said standard when then adding QPF paint, may in fact be exposed as an actual closed ...albeit flat surface cyclone if the intervals on the pressure gradient were more discrete. 

We know

I don't recall this system as having much of a chance...

no more or less than this one at 196 hours out . It was being discussed in a discussion thread because it was being modeled at the time, by both the delusional and the not much of a chance camp. Better discussion than it's 40 at my house or my yard is back to brown brown....

My point is that that particular system waa modeled as a cutter from the outset. That is not the case with respect to that system.

Plenty of people were looking at the garbage air mass for the weekend storm whether it was inland or off the coast, Its a rainer.

BTV:

A coastal low pressure system approaches the Northeast on Saturday,
bringing the potential for numerous hazards. Widespread precip will
begin as snow Saturday morning, but as temperatures increase
throughout the day, accumulating mixed precipitation and rain
are possible. Precipitation will continue through Sunday,
becoming more scattered, though the threat of mixed precip
remains. Downslope winds are also a concern along the western
side of the Green Mountains on Saturday as breezy easterly winds
are expected ahead of the approaching low. Because of the
duration of the event, hydro-related concerns also exist for
the weekend, and will be monitored more closely as the weekend
approaches. Uncertainty remains regarding precip type for the
weekend event and will be reassessed through the coming week.

Outside of the higher elevations its still rain, Depends on what model you want to use, Some cut it, Some hug it.
