2.75” snow total with a coating of sleet and freezing rain 32° ice starting to drip off the trees a little

Those of you who like gambling need to get in on predictive markets. I saw that writing on the wall yesterday morning that the storm was going to be a nj-boston special. I put down $10, that Boston would see more than 20 in this month, and now I can cash out for $25 before the storm even happens lol. Free money if you obsessively track models... And can tolerate a little bit of risk

ICON ens decently SE of the op for those who give a damn

Could be quite the gradient from western Talbot to your house. Mt Holly goalposts are still real wide 1 to 16" range...

Contextually concerning when you look at Sandy being 940.

My forecast as of now for my location is 10-15”. Trying to stay reasonable. Banding and extent of NW push will tell the tale.

8 years ago we hit 81 degrees!

Beautiful

We have tools here at the office where I can look at snow levels of every model and I use them as tools for creating the forecast. Just one of the benefits of being on the desk! AWIPS and our tool integration are very sophisticated. I also look at soundings and check other variables to mentally calculate!

I think you hit 12"

High end of the forecast range due to high ratio - 5.7"/0.34" LE, ratio 17:1. 23" at the stake.

Totally agree. Its a nice to have, not a need to have. For this one, it could be the stick of dynamite that gets us to 960s.

Yup...I can't wait to draw a 2' area on my map. Have to break out the special paint brush for that

Hard core, tracking and posting from the hospital Hope you're discharged soon and no further issues.

Weather next

Probabilistic snowfall range 1 to 16".

No one knows where the good bands will set up tomorrow evening. I’ve seen storms like this get @MAG5035 into the good snow totals when he was supposed be somewhat fringed. There is often a second max area. Location TBD.

The new Nam is quite good

I think 2’ risk extends into NE MA to central MA and CT with banding.

I’m no expert! Thought it was overrunning than transfer with a normal phase. Storm never got sub 980 but had very solid winds due to the close in arctic high creating a tight gradient. If this tucks in winds should be higher than 1996 but doubt we get as high or sustained as 1978.

Mesos will have more weight than globals soon. This is a very extreme storm. A sub 970 storm south of LI is no joke

Last night I thought I would be happy with 12”. Now I want 18” or bust.

Glad to hear you’re feeling better for the most part!
