Exactly what I was thinking....not sure why told me that I'd be thinking HECS at this time, tmw.....this is trending into a mod event with p-type concerns.

I was poking you. 6-12 is an expectation that is not unreasonable given the guidance but not set in stone either. My biggest concern is midlevel taint. If we can avoid that, there may be widespread jackpots of 12+ but the signal is not as strong for that at this moment.

DT almost always overforecasts for SNE when it's going to be a bigger storm here than the mid-Atlantic. It's an overcompensation mechanism. He'll spend days spewing profanities at people then throw up a 12+ swath. Though he usually cuts a dividing line right through Boston.

not a good post here. It's personal and non-constructive.

That DT map is just way way wrong imo. Tough to believe it would get suppressed that far south without a block.

Im going with a barnstable track sorry phil

Made no sense to me, I don't see any model thats has that type of track right now that would warrant those totals here..

No one called for it....but some of the most extreme soloutions hinted around at that type of QPF.

Verification, or modeled?

No model on this current had or has 4-7" of liq equiv over the southwest 'burbs of BOS, and that is what happened in '92. Let's not spin.

what are you thinking for NNE? I'm not all that impressed with qpf amounts even though we will have nice ratios...

Well, If it tracks inside the benchmark 6-12" 8-14" would not be out of the question, What is bothersome is the lack of precip on the NW side of the storm, There is a pretty sharp cuttoff.........

Bingo.....we are in agreement.

Oh okay. Yeah, I'm in northeast VT at school and I'm just learning the effects of SECS up here. Hoping to squeeze out 3-6" of fluff up here, but I dont like the qpf output for up here. Just want a decent storm here at school since I'm studying meteorology. (Even though I got spoiled this winter at home for break) lol

John, I'm not spinning anything.....last night's EURO would have given sections of the elevated interior 30"+......and that is what happened in '92....period.

Will and I spent the better part of an hr discussing it.

Would it match it in QPF, no....but snow, yes.

It will be tough getting snow back to you there based on this storm currently.....

I see what you think - but you are wrong. '92 had a huge liq equiv that last night's Euro didn't touch. You can't disconnect the two -
