Per Google Maps traffic the RA/SN line is basically Newburyport-Woburn-Natick-Hopkinton under some heavy banding. Grass shows white in the median on Route 2 east of 128, just up the road at 128 and Route 3 in Burlington it looks snowcovered. Tight gradient, perhaps a bit SE than advertised. Could be some nasty driving during the evening commute since media/BOX may have undersold the event. And all of this during peak sun angle, too!

I enjoy Tim Vasquez’ channel! He also has some solid books.

almost at 4" here, still all snow. roads are a mess, no plow yet but a couple weeks ago when there was a dusting that already melted they were out, WTF is that about, every year...

1.5" or so here, then turned to sleet, now freezing rain. Temp 29.

so is the low howie

30.0/29 Growth starting to get a bit better. 1"

AI Bundy?

Over the last 10-12 years we've had a lot of a zippy busy northern stream action when we're in the game. Lots of mid range flip flops and phantoms. The good thing is the phantoms break both ways and what looks like a nothingburger at d5+ can become a somethingburger at d4- lol. Tracking can be frustrating because any second or 3rd or 4th or whatever shortwave in line is never locked in. I no longer get deeply involved or overthink in patterns like this until a potential event is first in line. Otherwise it's just an exercise in chasing tails and kicking rabbits

Wantage 2.3" mostly sleet at 1PM 28.8F.

Making the thread as we speak

I just realized this was a December 5 event. We have history on our side, and history is known to repeat itself.

That high is near perfection

Everything about that description is just so ass backwards and wrong . Except it’s not today

Missed this, box expanded WAA https://x.com/iembot_box/status/1995891193381621964?t=pUYFfYZcUshVi8KSVUOWbg&s=19

The 12z Euro essentially has an anafront at the end of its run. The front isn't as north/south as we would want it, but it is good that is still showing. I think we incredible return flow in front of it - likely record highs and sever. Then that baby pushes through and things freeze solid. Let's see if that hypothesis holds.

Back edge in sight. Still have light rain, a temp and dp of 36, and 0.88" in the bucket.

Noticed last night in front of the liquor store it was heavily doused. Super max as in 'Don't sue us'...

Yes indeed!

finally getting going here with mod-heavy snow. 2.75" at 1pm. took that measurement on a wooden pallet in the open so probably an accurate measurement.

There is no way I am going over to rain. Maybe mix but not rain. BDL is still 28F with a N wind. Waiting for 1:00 obv from CEF but they were 28F with N wind last hour. I am not expecting probably 6-8" here. Take em up, take em up, taken up up

Just got back from staying overnight in Franklin, Ma after going to the Pats game last night. It was a slow go on the Pike with several spinouts and accidents. You could see the warm air surge more pronounced near Sturbridge where there was less snow and temps were a bit warmer around to 30-31. Traveling west, temps started to drop down to about 28 as we descended down into the valley and snowfall increased. Looks like there's a couple of inches here in Enfield although rates are pretty light at the moment.

This is the event the analogs had me chirping about since Thanksgiving. After yet Another wobbly model output right up to the last minute(remember the dryness insertion) I’ll just follow analogs. Another good historical opportunity 12/20-12/21 anytime anything goes under us we don’t have the temp issue and it’s only a matter of qpf so this one has and does look real good

4" here now but was prob closer to 4.5" - 5" earlier.

Ehh, my half inch was optimistic. lol Coupla tenths at best. The rain softened it right up so it should melt off the warm ground pretty quickly right? I don't feel like pushing the shovel so I'm going with it.
