Powerful Multi-regional/ multi-faceted east coastal storm now above medium confidence: Jan 29 -30th, MA to NE, with snow and mix combining high wind, and tides. Unusual early confidence ...

Don't really like where the 700 low is developing and closing off. 

you don't want to be just nw of it?

yeah, but it really does have a lot going for it that helps counterbalance that

Its a big storm, but people have to keep perspective.

No. The people mentioning 1978 are clueless.

I violently agree.

[CoastalWx]

Awfully close to tainting Taunton. And he tried to bun me. Tsk tsk.

[IowaStorm05]

The details are still sketchy at 4 days out but wow the consensus. I pulled up just a few maps and it was all I needed to see. I couldn’t unsee it. The orange. The blinding orange.

Lot of upside.

Me neither. I was focusing on H5 and H7 but the surface is still pretty good. Big inflow maybe?

[CoastalWx]

Definitely not in the 950 category, but beast storm.

[weatherwiz]

Although I wonder if this is a situation where the initial bad (which will be the strongest) actually materializes much farther NW than what is being shown and then as the storm matures and the centers tighten, the band then collapse and traverses over much of the region then finally sitting and rotting (probably eastern sections) and during this transition a second more weaker band materializes like 75-miles or whatever west of the main band.

well that's what I'm saying, people need to be realistic so they can be fully prepared for their inevitable disappointment

[ROOSTA]

Not too often does a storm like this one I think is going to occur. Maximizing every component, re: track, strength, barometric pressure, VV's off the scale, coverage, on and on. Think about it. Sure, they happen from time to time, tracked and forgotten always looking for the next. One analysis for that wrench that could possibly screw the IMBY.
Well, this one could be a contender for Top Five of all-time.

Looks fine. And if I taint I taint, I just don’t think that’s the favored solution 

[ineedsnow]

thats a crushing

[dendrite]

Nice pummeling in S NH

[40/70 Benchmark]

That run looks better than 00z, but I would ease off of 1978...needs to close later.

I think it depends. When the H7 low is more tightly closed off and consolidated I think this usually results in the deformation fairly close to the center...like 50-75 miles NW but when it's more elongated in nature the best deformation is significantly farther northwest (like 75-100 miles).

Inflow should be phenomenal. 

[powderfreak]

Deform all the way back here.  Not bad.

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

All in all, not too bad between the gfs and euro given the lead time

thanks

[powderfreak]

Beaches for the win though.

[JC-CT]

fwiw, I still expect the euro and gfs to meet somewhere in the middle.

I think we meant more where the stall happens.

Just one more bump east like this run compared to 00z and we're in jackpot zone. Still a great solution as is.

[40/70 Benchmark]

Looks like the CF is off of the table...I'm going need the deformation to slide east to get out of that RELATIVE screw zone.
