As depicted, the goods don't make it to MBY.   Outliers at this point, but curious regardless.

It looks like you will do about as well as me. Virtually every single model run coming out right now is offering me 5 inches.

As far as 00z NAM 3k is concerned, it's straight to rain for Groton. 

And as far as 00z NAM 3k is concerned, Willimantic is RIGHT on the border line for plowable snow here. I checked all the soundings for each hour, and the air aloft does not breach 32 degrees until 13z. Shows a rainer as close as 10 miles to the south. Fortunately, this is the worst model run for this event for my spot. It is not that likely to verify.

I'm still curious if we get better ratios in NNE given the slightly further south projection of the sleet line and heaviest snowfall.  The lift is pretty high up there, in the 600-700mb level.

This has mid-level lift band written all over it at BTV.  It could translate through a decent west-to-east axis.  Meso-band potential of short duration.

Here's ORH too...

I will also say that this is the most dead night of commentary 5 hours before the flakes fly I've ever seen.

I think it's been a tiresome leadup for not the most spectacular returns +/- our peak outcome on guidance was yesterday +/- people shook by Russia

It's crazy how slow this evening has been ahead of a region-wide event.  We start discussing stuff so far out, that hours before the event arrives we are tired of it.

Yeah, that drive from Aroostook down to Bangor for what I imagine would be all the "bigger city" commodities seemed like a looooooong one. I loved Fort Kent and Houlton though.

Nobody is driving from Houlton, or north of there down to Bangor for anything. That’s a 3-4 hour desolate drive down to Bangor.  
 

Houlton and Fort Kent are 2 plus hours apart. Houlton is a pretty big town for that area.   And a Presque isle is known as the hub of Aroostook…its got everything one needs…definitely a small town, but doesn’t feel all that remote for up there.  Caribou is another cool small town, that has everything you need. But Once you get north of caribou…it starts to get much, much more sparse. Fort Kent and Madawaska are neat lil small towns too.  Folks are really genuine and sincere up there…again, it’s a different world in that respect as well.

Nah that’s not it…it’s that this thing kind of has been becoming more mundane for most in CT and SE Mass all day, that some have lost interest.  If this thing was showing  8-14” for those areas, this place would be off the hook.

Guidance has been glacial: could see this SWFE a mile away,  any guidance changes are incremental...

And the best runs (at least for SNE) were yesterday and we've seen some attenuation since... if this was continuing to escalate, this place would be lit

02z RAP looks good

My mundane drive to work at 530 am should be anything but. People want Jack's but tomorrow is gonna be a pretty crazy kind of storm.

Yup… this year has been particularly noticeable. You track a threat for a week and by the time it reaches go time, you could really care less what happens lol

Haven’t paid a ton of attention to down south, but been casually following this one up here.  The QPF has been lower but lately the synoptic features have resolved in a very favorable manner.  500mb and 700mb lows go overhead.  Should create some lift.
