I won't, but so tempted to book a flight for tomorrow to spend the weekend in BOS for this one.

There is a nasty cold signal in the wake of this storm. Particularly low temps. With a fresh snowpack and another plunge in 850s that may have some legs.

yeah I can only imagine - I hope they don't put the plowed snow in there

8” is a big psychological cutoff for many. For a lot of people, the line between a moderate snow event and a major snowstorm is right around 8” or so. When you get close to double digits then it starts to look like what many would call a MECS. And I don’t just mean the number, but also the look of the snowpack.

It’s wetter with the snow but same temp

He's a hoodie of mine and actually Wtnh Chief Gil Simmons parents live down the street. Good Met vibes 15 to 20

The Potomac River is probably salt water at this point

.3 less QPF on the new Euro compared to the 12z and .2 less than the 00z GFS. Not a bad run at all. Just noting some observations

Bncho is right. Besides, the storm is gonna get its act all together and wallop us all. Hey you haven't truly lived, until you go to bed early during the height of the revitalized storm and sleep right through the historic death band!

Who’s to say it won’t trend back in our favor. The European model hasnt been great the last few stoms either

Truly the best storm I think I'll ever experience.

yeah - DC definitely salts WAY more. Like our streets right now are basically white.

It was supposed to be rain here, and all of a sudden it's freezing rain on the cars at basketball practice.

Euro very aggressive in bringing in the sleet Sunday afternoon. Still a good thump before then, but it cut back snow amounts compared to the 12z run. The trends are not good with the mid level warming. Thank goodness we have such an extreme arctic airmass in place or else this event would fall apart.

Happy 10 year anniversary for one of the greatest mid-Atlantic blizzards of all time! Still feels like yesterday. It was as close to perfection as any storm can get.

From what I can tell it looks like most models have seen a slight uptick in overall QPF at 0z. Good sign. That warm nose will be the wildcard for most of the Arkansas crowd.

Congrats to MBY on that Euro run with 21.2! Just incredible! Even my family in extreme southern OK is looking at 5-6 inches! Trying to temper my excitement...I know Lucy can always be lurking. Lol

Kevin is a Moosup guy smart man

Also hey everyone please be mindful of our snow removal/city planning thread. Make sure all relevant storm discussion stays out of here.

Ah I was in NYC for the Boxing Day storm this year and wondered why there was so little salt compared to our roads down here. I do think the less salt and more focus on clearing is the better way for a city and it’s more environmentally friendly.

Watch....but N CT should be fine.

you won't lose much to virga - the heavier precip will saturate the column pretty quickly

yep. 12z Euro on the left. 00z on the right.

Think that's model noise or something to watch?
