Tracking Jan 7 coastal storm. Lingering compression/flow velocity has not lent to consensus, but it seems at 30 hours out.. finally?

Yeah that was it. That will happen with this wherever that fluff mid level band sets up 

Someone will get 10-12 inches

For everyone, or just western areas? I heard the same thing about the NAM, and it was worse north. 

It's better for you too

It's usually designated for a 24 hour period....so you'd want to see 24mb in 24 hours....which this one will achieve too.

They'll be measuring it in feet in NS.  Congrats Hazey.

warnings might have to be pushed back by morning   more models coming in robust

Consolidation in time.   A growing idea it seems...

I think Hazeys on the coast, he may mix, close call, inland's going to get buried.

BOMBS AWAY!

18z is congrats north shore MA

[HoarfrostHubb]

That’ll do pig

That’ll do

[wxsniss]

Box will want to expand the 8-12" area if this keeps up, at least further west along the pike region into southeast MA

What creates the arctic sand that fringe zones and shadowed areas can be subject to in coastals.  Lack of good lift combined with non-ideal DGZ temps?

The Arctic sand is usually shitty growth caused by lift in a very cold profile. That’s when you get the tiny flakes and Needles. Sometimes the dryslots have that because the snow growth zone dried out and you’re left with lift somewhere in the column  that is not conducive to good flakes.

LOL.  One could have had a short-fuse thread emerge during the eight days this storm thread has been around.

[mahk_webstah]

That looks like a Kevin to Ray death band lollies over a foot. Will have to miss this one up here but we will certainly appreciate your videos and pictures

[moneypitmike]

We built a room on our house which is ideal for snow watching (and severe watching for that matter).  I'll call it the weenie room.   I'll be breaking it in tomorrow.

Gotta think a deformation area will be near that QPF gradient in these more robust solutions 

[TheSnowman]

Here we go again.  Same Old Story.  

 

A Storm Starts Out to Sea where NW of me is out of the game, Then I’m forecast to be in the Jackpot, THEN the day of the storm / Nowcasting, The Jackpot moves to NW of me.  
 

It’s happened oh 15,748 times.

Harvey's heavy area is 6-9 eastern areas

Gassing up for a Brattleboro road trip?

18z GFS almost looks like it's wrapping the convection into eastern MA by 12z Friday... Will mentioned this hypothetical earlier:
