You could argue EPS was in the GEM/Ukie overall look. I wouldn't focus on snow amounts, but low position with those 3 sets of guidance wasn't far off. We'll see what 12z does.

Menacing?

A little violent.

 

Honestly, so much has to go right, and the likelihood is that it won't be a large area getting anything interesting. But in the big picture..high spots should watch.

What day... full sun and mid-40s.  Feels beautiful out here with a wind chill near 32F lol. 

Our expectations are real low right now, as it does feel like a nice day. 

Despite the sun, snow still holding on in the shade and on mulch beds lol.  Dew points near 0F aren’t melting this fast even at 45F.

[CoastalWx]

Stealing my 00z snow... that is a lot of precip.  Hills get crushed in CNE.

 

[dendrite]

Nice CNE pummeling.

[powderfreak]

That is insane.  My snow map was a bit early, still going in ORH hills.

[Ginx snewx]

Turned out to be a nice day overall

[Ginx snewx]

Apruary and all

[Amped]

That also looks like a crazy banding signature over central NE.  Probably similar to Oct 2011.

 

[Damage In Tolland]

Just like last one. Keeps shifting south . Interesting if nothing else.

[ORH_wxman]

Just about the 33 year anniversary....lets go big or go home.

Can someone post eps snow maps . Those are better to show potential.

Look at that setup. Sweet high. 

[Bostonseminole]

Will roads up to VT from Tolland be blocked after this ? We are one week later in terms of spring.. not expecting much here.

[Damage In Tolland]

Ginx.. snow maps

Kevin has become fully addicted to clown maps.

Yeah that would filter in the BL cold pretty quickly once the CCB got cranking....you can see it at 925mb. Just funnels right down into the thing.

This time of year they work as far as giving idea where it will snow.Winter no

I’d argue the opposite. They can be bad with amounts verbatim, this late in season.

I don’t mean amounts. I mean if they paint accum this time year, that’s where you’re most likely to see some

What?  I think it’s definitely the other way around just because most snow maps are run off like 925-850 layer.  

Thats why it’ll punch out 6” with 2M temps of like 35-36F.... because 925mb is 0C.
