They probably have just as much interest as we do as to why the models can't figure this one out in a more agreeable way.  Perhaps extra data can assist... The storm is going to be affecting several million people in some way.

Seems like that area is sampled well though coming off land and with satellites etc. I dunno.

It will be fun to be a school admin for this storm.  Parents will be sending some colorful emails, when school is canceled and they wake up to bare ground and pouring rain.

And early dismissals are just as problematic...putting all the kids on the road with maybe no one at home to pick them up. I'm assuming most districts don't even have that as an option?

What's your feeling for your area Kevin?

I have 8-12” with up to 15” possible in highest elevations for this area up to Union. I really haven’t seen anything today to change that .Not saying it’s right, but that’s what I’m rolling with right or wrong .

Most relevant portions of 446pm AFD:

...There still remains some uncertainty on exact snow amounts across the lower elevations, including eastern MA and Boston...

Still dealing with lots of critical differences in the latest guidance suite. While gaining confidence in some aspects of the forecast, still some lingering questions with the precise details.

Among the guidance, we discounted the 12Z NAM, which looked to be a far western outlier with its track. This forecast was based more on the idea of the storm staying just offshore of eastern MA. All the guidance had a little pinwheel effect with the surface low pressure at some point tomorrow into tomorrow night. The critical question is where this happens. The main concern for this will be related to temperatures, which are rather marginal already. A more westward jog to this low pressure will mean armer air and less snow towards the coast.

Another complicating factor to the snowfall forecast will be the timing and track of a dry slot in the dendritic growth zone. This looks like it will impact southeast MA and portions of RI. This will limit snowfall simply because the snowflakes themselves will not be as large or well formed.
