That storm really was awful for the coastal areas of the northeast. I was only 12 y/o and in NNJ then but clearly remember the infamous snow map that the weather channel had up 1.5 days before the start of almost all of PA-NJ-SNE in purple saying 2-3 feet, locally more. Then remember that Sunday night the bust started going public with a now 3”-6” forecast, heartbreaking. That one hurt, so did 1/05 and 1/15. Just missed in NNJ-NYC while SNE got croaked in all of them. Got our revenge so to speak in 1/16 but the pain of those others was too much and moved up here 6/17, for personal reasons too. Sorry for the side track down memory lane. Please move to banter if need be

Wow, beautiful! That’s even more of a dream. Good on you for living it out. YOLO

Yeah that truly looks like a fantasy. You sir have an awesome house in an awesome place with an awesome job. I envy you but am happy someone here with a passion gets to live it out

They certainly were. This definitely exceeded my expectations with 3-4”. Was thinking a sloppy 1-2” before the changeover. Glad the entire sub-forum got accumulating snow. It’s been a long time since that’s happened, 1/29/22 I think?

Back down to 30 with freezing drizzle in Chelsea. Roads were awful throughout this event until the changeover. I was driving up rt. 1 and 95 at 345 this morning and it was snow packed, no treatment whatsoever so I can only imagine how bad they’ll get again as it gets colder and colder. Seems the plows were kind of caught off guard at least with the initial thump this morning, came in very early or they were just banking on it not sticking too well

I think it’s pretty obvious why it isn’t getting talked about. This place will be a ghost town after Tuesday. Time to close the shades until February and even that should have low expectations. Fully expect an improved pacific to do nothing in terms of winter weather for the coast, it will find a way to not work out

At least you got a squall period. Tough crowd

It’s snowing below 0 in northern Arkansas. That’s something you don’t see every year, this airmass means business. Wonder if it’s some sort of record for that area

Boston gets the 7-10 split along with Metrowest. Hopefully Tuesday delivers something to whiten things up

A low riding over the cape will do that even with an arctic airmass behind it

You’re right, it doesn’t really mean anything. HRRR really shouldn’t be used outside of 24 hrs or even 12-18 hours. It’s great for picking up where heavy bands will setup in an ongoing coastal, not so much a medium range synoptic system

Wrong. It’s gonna be way below normal next week and even after that the warmth might but muted I wouldn’t have expected you saying that. You really know how to spin things for your agenda. I’ll give you last year, you were correct that it was gonna be warm and snowless even though you would have predicted that no matter what but to just shit on next weeks cold and bit even acknowledge the fact that it looks like the pacific is changing just truly shows what you’re trying to do. No changes

Sure did. I recommend everyone get away from the models, off this board and out for the rest of the afternoon. It’s 57 here with a nice breeze. Won’t feel this again for about another 2 weeks, maybe longer. Check back in this evening

Funny to see the Pioneer Valley with the western Mass jack. In my 4 years of living there going to UMass the valley never even came close to the hills around them. They were always the lowest, not this time though

Sounds about right. The light snow the past 2 hours has put about another half inch down. Will finish close to 4 and Logan should be about the same

No. They were in the middle of a band when that was reported so it’s def more No changes though

Coastal areas are gotta have some treacherous driving conditions out there right now. All the rain and melted snow washed any salt and pre treat away and then the flash freeze. Don’t hear a lot of plows out either, think they called it quits this morning, oops.

Dumping here the past 1.5 hours. Pushing 2in. 26 and dropping fast, the flash freeze is real

Really coming down in the north shore down to 95 band including Boston. Wouldn’t call it whiteout or blizzard but visibility dropped to about 100 yard for the last 30 min

Finally all snow here on the coast and things starting to whiten up. Need one more degree to start sticking to pavement. 33 now

Dusting on the grass in Chelsea. Still flipping between fat flakes and drizzle here. I guess 2-3 was even too much here. Congrats to those NW of 95

Eh, not really. You’re probably thinking about backlash snows from an occluding storm that show up on the models hundreds of miles south and west of a departing system. This CCB would be different coming from a maturing/strengthening storm. There’s a difference

All hopes lie with the CCB tomorrow. Inside 128 is cooked with the WAA snows

Going with 2-3 in Chelsea. Logan reports 1.5. Gradient is going to be crazy at the coast. Could easily see a place like Melrose or Saugus get 6-10. As others have said, it will come down to the CCB and how strong/long it lasts. If it really gets going tomorrow then the coastal numbers will go way up, even Logan

Sure, but there wasn’t as many of them when they hoisted warnings. Big changes on the 12z runs for coastal dwellers. I hope I’m wrong but I just can’t see coastal areas (within 5 miles) getting to 6”. Maybe they’ll drop them for just that, coastal sections
