Local on the 8’s… is it a big snowflake or a little snowflake.

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.

I had not realized you moved to Kentucky. How are you liking it?

It was hard.  Wait for the local newscast at 6 and 11.

This is better for CT than 78. Look deeper 

I remember 78 like it was yesterday. I was just a young lad at -8 years old, but I distinctly remember snow drifts that were infinitely higher than my head.

yeah he thinks we are kidding, but that's how it was. I used to watch the weather channel nonstop coverage for something like this, except they wouldn't really have been aware of it yet.

This is most likely going to happen. We're going to see two bands with two max areas and subsidence screw zones in between.

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

Depends....eastern CT, wrong.

W CT, yes.

That was a great run. Looked like it would blow it's load further south then kick eat but the curl up and left with good inflow helped to offset it. Giddy up country boy, LFG!

Yea, I needed at least one of three trends/

1: Closer to track to move cf inland...this looks close to by the boards.

2: Slower close off...trending wrong way, so probably cooked there.

3: Further east track to get closer to deformation...this the shot for this area.

Euro is the only one closing this off with rapid H5 deepening that early and southwest...I don't think #2 is off the table whatsoever.

W CT, yes.

A Euro/GFS blend gives a very good solution for eastern CT. and then there's the ggem.

Snow showers in the 5 day planner

[SouthCoastMA]

Still looks great, especially when you factor in the other models. If they all move to each other, we're golden.

The solid white "snow" wouldn't appear until like 3 days out.

I mean that's a relative term in this system

And how likely are any of those details to be worked out before we get inside of 48 hours?

I don't see a coastal front getting near rt 128....its been several days since any solution has done that. 

[SouthCoastMA]

Im going to ignore that snow map, as it's brutal here. 8" vs 3ft about 20 miles west. 

[weathafella]

It was easier in the old days.  They said 6-12 and you got 10 and were happy.  You were unaware of little bumfuk 10 miles away getting 23.

[ineedsnow]

I know most people are looking at snow totals but holy wind with this!!

I’d always get so excited when the planner showed a day with straight up “Snow”.

That outcome would produce a lot of giddy weenies.  20" from Boston to Berkshires is a pretty historic storm if it played out that way.

Just my opinion.

[SouthCoastMA]

Other than TWC stuff, the most iconic/nostalgic 5/7 day forecast to me was WBZ's in the 90's. Burbank liked to stack up those snowflakes above and beyond those daily graphic boxes for the biggies. 

[CT Valley Dryslot]

Euro is the Real McCoy. Been a while since we've had a real PHL-BOS crusher.

[RUNNAWAYICEBERG]

Euro will slowly tick e over the next few cycles as it rarely makes big run to run changes inside d5 so with all the other guidance being east, we can get a fairly good overall picture already.

I wouldn’t sweat the euro…. Even like an 80-20 compromise in favor of the euro and you are fine there
