They key is how does it evolve...does the main vortex go into Canada? If it goes to Eurasia again, then I'd rather not even.

Yes but there's a decent shot for us.  I saw that thing on the winter of 28-29 from DT tweet.  Intriuging in that the coldest air was to our west but we were cold enough and I would think a lot of swfe and Bs in that patter.

Does wind chill even matter at that temperature?

Lol - 

In a practical real setting ?   No much ...  If one is not sufficiently protected in an air mass of that gelid amber, they are over the death threshold -  like... the body has frozen solid, and the soul's essence long receded back into quantum information paradox that argues nothing is lost and destroyed in the real Natural universe ...and then the wind blows ?

 Doesn't matter - haha...

Boston had normal snow, but I don't know how sharp of a gradient there was to the north.

I'm just tired of people raving over a phenomenon that hoards the cold on the other side of the globe 7/10 times.

S shore had the most....down near Norwell, Pembroke and Marshfield was ground zero.

I have to disagree with that assessment, especially if spotters used the 6 hour clearing method with many of those storms throughout that intense period. I can prove it with real data who had more snow on the ground. Boxford, MA actually comes in with 48-50" on ground at the highest depth by mid February even Newburyport.at 48".

Disagree.

Prove it.

Once you even get into the minus 20's, Its hard to tell the difference from there on up.

Yes around here cuz it doesn’t get a whole lot colder than the -30’s(which is plenty brutal).  But -60 on up is just insane, and you’d know the difference between that and -20 imo real quick.

I rode the county around Fort Kent at -35°F before, Wasn't a very good time for my heated shield to shat the bed.

I have a hypothesis that I'd like to test for the next upcoming weeks: I think if New England is to get any decent snows, the primary needs to track at or north of Detroit. Anything lower will be a whiff because of the strong, southern block. Just posting this here to verify later.

Links don't work, but I know for a fact max depths of near 4'+ were on the south shore.

I've checked Coop of Brockton, Beechwood, Bridgewater, Plymouth/Kingston area. Haven't see anything go over 4 feet.

Those satellite images aren't going to be perfect. Trust me, I live here and work in Andover. I remember that year better than my own anniversary date. The jack was near me to about Norwell. I'm not just saying that because I live here and biased. You had 30"+ in the long duration event and over 15" from the event after. N shore didn't have that. They had near 20" in NBT in the 2/15 event, but not the long duration one.

Well, the 0z Euro made a dramatic shift for the 26-27th from its 12z run when it sent the system to Bermuda.

May very well be the case.

We're just going to have to agree to disagree. I live north of Boston and have a jackpot fetish, so its not like I was have a vested interest in claiming that the s shore was slightly better off in the most prolific snowfall period in SNE history.
