Awesome!

Southborough is my hometown and I will be visiting my parents there this upcoming Friday... I hope there'll be enough snow left over and uncompacted!

Should we start a pool on who you think (town/city wise) will get jackpotted?

I'm thinking someplace around Southboro, MA... 22".. maybe Framingham - cpick's storm

Hoping it is Ray

It can be 35-36F and it will still be thumping snow. I am not worried at all.

I didnt get this into the earlier post.

Notice the pivot point on the QPF...it went way NE again. Now it's in VT. Note what happened again to the SW of that point. From EVA up to Albany the .5 line edged east and the QPF bomb over NJ diminished some. It's going to dampen out it can only fail/make changes so much in tight, but I think it has one good move similar to this one in it. That would put it left of the RGEM probably, but east of this current american guidance.

The 5h should absolutely jump east quicker than modeled. At the same point in time tonight it's stronger and a smidge NE. I think it ends up stronger even earlier just looking at the surface low, water vapor, RUC etc.

The pivot point on the GFS is partly a reflection - a rudiementary one, of where the new 5h is taking over and starting everything on the new trajectory. one more shift like tonight and it should help in two ways - by cutting the N movement off sooner it also increases the chances the dryslot never touches land.

Let's eee, nowcast time.

All models show it's rumble in the jungle time, the s/w's and the trough itself are about to go bezerk.

I think you are in awesome shape for a couple of reasons:

1. I think there's a very good shot the 5h is going to take over hours earlier. Soon as that happens north progression stops.

2. I think the RGEM has the better idea and the american models are still choking for whatever reason.

Yeah, I like the idea of BOX's snowfall may but rotate everything SE about 15-20 miles. I think the Rt 24 corridor will take a wallop.

Roughly 12:1.

That sounds fair for your neck of the woods... given modeled temps on the WRF and GFS though, I'd be hard pressed to expect much more than a 10:1 paste for I-95 and SE (maybe even 8:1 for those that get to 32-36F). Hard to get higher than 8-10:1 when its 32F or a shade above.

The ratios may make up for the lack of QPF further west though...west slopes of the Berks back into eastern NY get a 16-18F powder storm, lots of blowing and drifting.
