12/17 Messy Mix

I think some of the guidance is overtrending...just like I felt the suppressed tracks were BS.

I feel good about my call.

Agree. I'm not falling for this like I did a storm or two ago. If the fronto slams before the switch to mix, along mass pike to NH border is still the best place to be. Could snow several inches quickly.

Definitely not expecting a SNINCR 4/8 at MHT again, but right around midday there is some potential for 1"/hr stuff in a couple hour window.

Man, just woke up and saw this storm and it looks putrid. Some of the guidance slides most of the best forcing offshore southeast of New England. What a disaster for the models on this one. 

Fugly.  Sand here lots of low level stuff going on.  Freezing drizzle near the shore,  down to 26 now.

It's funny...in my head the whole time I was thinking "why is the thump looking so healthy when the shortwave look hasn't really improved?"...but I just kind of ignored that question and figured the models had this. Boy, was I wrong. My initial instinct on the really sheared shortwave look seemed to be the one to follow. It's not a more classic consolidated vortmax.

Its definitely weird.  Tornados suck in all ways. Well I guess I will have to jump my 1 hour of squalls Wed now lol. Wiz might be all over the lapse rates with some TSSN

The whole thing is a mess. From higher heights possibly from convection, squall lines racing east and screwing up the conveyor belts, and sheared s/w. If you compare 850mb valid at 12z today from 6z runs today vs 12z runs yesterday, the WAA is not classic. It’s gotten worse. You don’t have the classic 60kts from the SW hitting a wall. It’s more stretched out over the waters to our south. That’s not helping.

I'm wondering how warm it even gets aloft....recent guidance is cooling things again. N of Pike might not even get a warm layer or if they do it might be weak and not last very long. 

The real strong warm nose gets pushed eastward more...which is also making the thump look even worse. 

But that is pretty classic for a sheared system that can't really wrap up a more consolidated WCB.

What were ya'll expecting I haven't looked at models for New England until I got into work this evening. I thought SNE was generally looking at a 1-3" scenario with a mixed bag of precipitation. Everyone seems pretty let down.

I was wondering that. Might be lighter, but it may not flip over past like BED-ORH maybe? Yeah the thrust is east for sure.

I definitely looked like north of the pike after 12z runs yesterday could get 4-6" I brought Logan down to 2-3" and it might be generous.

I don't think a whole lot changed from the pretty rough look in the snow growth zone, it just got shoved a whole sub-sub-region north (SNE to CNE).

There was about 2-3 hrs where the HRRR was giving a cross hairs signal in these parts. Now it's giving us the middle finger.

It was an uncharacteristic fail all around.

I don't know about this FV3 version of the KFS...

Still some signs that we may be able to pull off a couple hours up here where we can tick off a couple inches real quick, but it's definitely not a high confidence deal.

Certainly a very poor effort by me on this . Very bad. The worst part is most of SNE probably loses the White Xmas. With no other storms coming , we needed this one to happen. 

At least you got accumulating snow already. I got all rain.

What are you expecting at PWM? Based on what I was looking at tonight, well, this morning now I guess lol,  I was thinking 4-6" mainly this afternoon.

It was a total fail on modeling for sure. What a poor job by all of them period.  They’ve been pathetic this early winter so far..big time struggling on so many situations.

The modeling has been pretty  bad overall this cold season so far. Sometimes you can see they’re going to be wrong. But in this one it just seemed like we had everything lining up for a classic thump. We get our icestorm which is fine, but I’m really bummed about no White Xmas for much of the region.

I wouldn’t even trust em one bit on the extended either though...they can’t Nail down a system 6 hours away...9 days away, forget about it. They’re all over the place.
