I think the 6z GFS ramped up QPF a bit for you.

Not really...just barely into the 0.75" zone...maybe it was a tight tick up from 0z. Not really concerned seeing as it's the eastern outlier...just commenting on how it still seems out to lunch. I'm more concerned the NAM will still set the trend and The storm will wind up dryslotting SE CT while SW CT cashes in again.

no kidding. its crazy

Not to sound weenie-ish but when I first saw the maps this AM from BOX I was a little surprised. It looks more like a 06z NAM track vs a SREF/Euro one. Thy must be hedging themselves. Hopefully the 12z suite will put to rest any uncertainty.

Such a large top loaded system even on the NAM, can you explain?

I think you'll be ok...maybe Rockport or Gloucester possibly for a brief time, but looks ok for now.

Thanks...I am a little east of Ray...in Danvers, so I try to gauge my thoughts for this area based on what he is expecting. Valid to do so or would there be significant differences?

You're fine in Danvers. Maybe the dryslot gets close..that's a bigger danger for you, rather than ptype.

I know this is a MBY question, but mixing on the north shore with the latest models?

No. With such intesity thermal profiles are sufficent throughout the column. Dryslot S and E of Boston is more a concern ATT.

Got that feeling. Ya know that cold dry snow feel.:thumbsup:

It gon snow bigtime.

without reading through 29 pages of last nights thread, can someone give me the low-down on last nights euro? did it track the low outside the cape, up the canal, or what? just trying to get an idea on what to expect in the KCON area.

Start reading j/ k Over ACK, snow bomb

The 06z NAM also introduces the idea of possible meso screw zones for some. Another thing to complicate. GC would probably be buried with the 06z NAM track, but the forcing with this is so incredible. BOS could have most of their snow in a 4-6 hr period.

I am thinking that this could be the first storm in over 4 years in which I break the 12" mark. of course it could be that i just jinxed it my thinking that. I look forward to measuring 11.5" tomorrow afternoon. :arrowhead:

There are a handful of wrf/nmm runs that are much further se. Not important to most folks but this area it makes a huge huge difference.

Phil MM 5 seems to be lock in step with Euro at fine detail, jackpots ELI RI BOS North Shore. I like its setup look. You would be OK.Also the geostrophic flow on this storm is signaling cold underbelly JMHO

I see diminishing winds with fog and readings close to 50 right when this tracks over Muskeget Channel to our west.

Typical BS. These tracks always do this. Hopefully it goes east at the eleventh hour. I'm sick of western Suffolk County getting dumped on storm and storm the past decade.
