Awesome pic!

Why does the rain look like it's falling as fluffy white stuff?

3” of it too, Rode 100 miles tough keeping the shield clear in these conditions.

if banding blows and precip is more showery/convective in nature, this is gonna suck for low elevations- even up here and probably beyond.

NAM QPF is rather blotchy. Strange. Almost convective looking.

No wedge of cold air to create a nice smooth overrunning look?

[AstronomyEnjoyer]

Actually looked like the 3km might have had more to give there at the end. Anyway, tis a silly model to use at any hour let alone 60.

The 3k. I like this area up to ORH to NW RI and NW CT.. your area 2-4

Tries for the Kraft in eastern MA. It’s a little stretched out but that was close to something a lot nicer. 

How long until this term shows up in an AFD?  This is one of those things that morphs over time and gets so far away from the original source, but is used regularly enough that everyone understands what it means.  Years from now people will be studying the genesis of the "Kraft" weather phenomenon.  I can see the dictionary entry now:

Used in a sentence:  "Eight hours into heavy snowfall I began anticipating the Kraft by disrobing and performing snow angels in my front lawn."

What's your over/under vs the 1/7 storm debacle?  I am taking the over for no other reason than hope going into the weekend lol.

Warmer and worse than 12z. 

Figured when Will said it was "close" to something better...usually means it blows

Well we actually do slowly cold air advect during this instead of the opposite on 1/7. But of course the airmass aloft is warmer. 

I would stay conservative with maybe 1-2 at the end for now.

Reggie juiced and looks similar rain/snow line to NAM.

We’ve been cooked for Ike 2 days here, I really don’t care at this point.

I do find it hilarious that a run that objectively gives Kevin little to no snow is a run he “likes”. Heavy heavy projection. 
 

This storm could produce some absolutely epic melts
