NAM bufkit profile for GYX says we peak at 50-55 mph up here later tonight and lasting through much of tmrw. The soundings seem to to be verifying well to this point... so it could get pretty damn nasty. If the nam isn't totally on crack, it says we have 20-30 microbars in the sgz between roughly 3 and 7 am...that spells 1 to 2" per hour rates coinciding with those winds.

Sweet! I hope my power holds ... though at these wind speeds that's a pipe dream.

Not sure of my accums. Measured out the door a bit ago at 2.5" but it was right next to the house and I could see deeper areas on the deck rail. Hella windy out here.

That is beautiful music to my ears :snowman:

Will what are you thoughts about the drying progressing from the southwest of you and I?

I think we'll stay mostly in the good stuff...it could try to sneak into our area at times, esp over the next 2-3 hours....but its going to be progressively shunted south as the night goes along and the 7h low deepens....we should try and see some of the moisture to the E and NE wrap back SW around that center.

So I thought we found new ways last year to get shut out

South coast of CT got 2 ft in Dec 09 and we got 1" here in the valley. Let us not forget NYC getting 2ft and we had rain. Most of NE got screwed in that one. This year we find new ways. Poor dendrites and dry slot from hell. Such is life in the CT valley

The Valley is on a horrible run the last few years and Eastern Mass is on a relatively good run...I'm taking that in tonight.

SHEETS of snow...looks like top of Mount Mansfield out there.

Absolutely agree. Looks like 4-6 tops here in the valley. Oh well easy morning commute in the AM.

RUC got ripped all afternoon by everyone on here.. Will said it was a horrific model outside of the first 3-5 hours or so, lol.

It did seem to nail the heavier bands in E.NY though, but its western edge was a bit too large.

It brought the huge banding well up and past ALB....so yeah, it did a terrible job. It also changed me over to nearly rain with the 850 0C line.

RUC did not do well. Mesoscale models like the MM5 and SREF did well.

Some awful looking dry slots and the band seems to be shrinking in from the west. What gives?

You'll be fine stop worrying but you're possibly seeing the edge of where the heavy stuff ends up.

Someone who knows what they are doing in the randolph stoughton canton easton sharon area measured about 15" a short time ago. Not saying where as I don't want it to end up as an official second hand report. I know it's a great report, but it is what it is.

It was awful in positions of lp though...abysmal.
