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 ...

This run was quite a bit better for NNE peeps from your area to Phin. Seemed to curl that moisture back a lot better. 

It was, There was the hook into the GOM it had a few cycles back.

That map looks like my nieces artwork went through the wash machine...

Actually the Kutchera gets are area to 13 inches. Not bad if it's correct.

Still time for this to correct to 24!

The 18z gfs is slower and more west with the energy that eventually gets buried out west. To my untrained eye (mets here, correct me if I am wrong) it looks like the energy is digging faster and is farther east. In my opinion this tells me gfs and nam are wrong with burying the energy. 
 

edit- not my map

WTF am I looking at George?

[IowaStorm05]

My Dad lives in West Hartford and asked how much snow he should expect. I told him that nobody really knows at this point. That he could get 8 inches or get almost nothing at all. What I also told him is that I CAN say that it is very unlikely he will see anything like 15 or 20 inches as just about nothing is signaling any such thing, and to get a blockbuster there would require a f'cking miracle.

The freakouts are getting a bit ridiculous. This is still really 2.5+ days away. I know it seems plausible to want to see such strong agreement and consistency but the truth of the matter is we're still within the time frame where subtle differences are going to occur. Forgetting about these east vs. west swings, at the end of the day, we're not asking for significant changes here. For things to come together and be a very high-impact event for most...it's not like a ton has to happen for that to happen. There is a difference in needing drastic or substantial changes and very subtle. 

This. Couldn't have said it better. People who write this off, one way or the other are completely ridiculous.

My father, no matter the storm, always says it's a bust.

He said Nemo was underwhelming.

I can think of one reason, but whatever, doesn't matter. Sorry I freaked out/annoyed the whole board, hope you show equal consternation for Ryan's behavior.

Can't say I saw whatever he posted.  If it annoyed you, I'm sure it was well worth the post.

I would stay away from the stouts and stay with pilsners for now, Can always go higher if need be.

Are winds much of a factor in the new EC?

He's getting some extra jogging in since he may not be able to get out his door for a few days

[NorEastermass128]

You all are killing me. I just need one quick look at the Kuchie. 

[ScituateWX]

Weenie question.  When looking at snowfall maps (which I know should be taken with a grain of salt) what is meant by the kuchera ratio that folks have been posting and talking about?  Thanks!

[HoarfrostHubb]

This is pretty sweet 

[CT Valley Dryslot]

I feel bad for Kuchera and his last name being objectified.

[PhineasC]

Way better than 12z here.

Someone over at another board compared the obs with the 18z gfs for the energy that eventually becomes our southern energy. It looks like the obs are faster and more east with it, which suggests that the models that are burying the energy are wrong and the Euro has the right idea.
