Let's hope so. Will be a nowcast.

With guidance trends at 18z, BL temps seem to be the main reason we don't have more widespread WSW east of ORH.

I’d think BOX would extend warnings east to the coast if all the 0z guidance continues the 18z theme. That won’t happen until the 4am packages obviously. 
Need to keep the heavy rates going for it to be reality as @CoastalWx said

Here is the caveat especially inside 128 and lower elevations. It will start to warm a bit near 33-34 perhaps later tomorrow morning and aftn. If precip is light, it may be snowing, but probably not sticking. If we indeed can get some good rates going, then you may see it try to accumulate again as temps try to fall closer to freezing in heavier rates. I almost can see this deal where if it lightens up, you'll see things try to melt, snow sliding off trees etc...only to coat up again in heavier snows. Outside 128 and up over 300-400' as Will said...you should be ok. 

Def rates are the determining factor. Gonna need to be mod-heavy most of the time to reach warning criteria along the CP

Wow... (18z 3k NAM)

 

 Now that would be a positive bust. Nws is 3-4 and wunderground is 2 here. 
Can’t be taken seriously though unless the other mesos start honking 

Birds chirping at 28 with flurries here. I guess it’s an improvement for them from yesterday

This post 2016 stretch is making me start to understand the origin of Torch Tiger. He was once a snow weenie like myself, getting excited over every flake. But Torch Tiger began to notice that the local climate started getting warmer, and he found himself disappointed more and more often. Torch Tiger is quite a bit older than I am, so his spirit was already beaten down somewhat by the rat race that is life. Eventually, he reached a breaking point where he could no longer derive enjoyment as a snow weenie while deep down knowing that winters will get milder and milder as climate change accelerates. The competing forces of reality (climate change) and relentless (delusional) optimism began clashing, and this divide caused him great psychological distress. Eventually it became too much, and he went off the deep end. After his psychotic break, he was a changed man. The carefree snow lover he used to be was a thing of the past. Now, there is a darkness inside of him. He feeds off the sorrow of snow weenies, cackling to himself as he sees snow threat after snow threat slip away while while watching us snow weenies melt. He now loves warmer weather, the mere sight of deep red over the eastern US fills him with joy like snow used to. To him, all the record highs we have been getting represent something bigger, it is only the beginning of the death of the eastern US winter. He believes that deep down, even the biggest snow weenies know what is happening to our winters, and feeds off our misery. I have not gone off the deep end yet, but unfortunately the cracks are starting to show. I can feel myself slowly losing my sanity, with the darkness already starting to seep in to my psyche. I will do everything I can to fight it, but couple more ratters in the near future will be the end of me. My transformation will be complete, and a second Torch Tiger will join the board. Please, make it stop….. Just give me one epic winter in the next 5 years, just one to help me fight those demons.

Uuuuh yes you have in fact. On top of it you make statements about other posters like you know them, I don’t think they appreciate it. 
Every storm is a “blizzard” and now you just want everyone to rain out of spite. You’re all over the place. I think you need to take some self induced separation time from this board and come back a new person without all the over the top hyperbole

Sure, if 2-4 is your jam. I hope it misses this are entirely at this point.

My god we get it. You don’t want a single flake and to be “annoyed” by a light event. We get it, we get it, we get it! And “at this point”? You’ve been saying that since the models started showing less than 12” with this. 
Think you need to just stop looking at the models and come back on Wednesday to see how the 3/4 is or isn’t developing

I'll be happy with 6 and use the snowblower

This is still a 6” storm? Judging by the last page of posts by the usual suspects you’d think a Rainer is on the way. Yikes.

100%. Any hint of some CCB would raise the ceiling again. Just have to get the other guidance to buy a more aggressive solution. 

I’m still not all in, and probably won’t be until Sunday, but this is the best spot we’ve been in down here in CT since early December.

I think at this point the ceiling is 10”-12” even with a decent CCB. 
Still a good storm and great by this years standards 

How does the result of the 28th system impact the 4th, if any?

Im going to double down and make a bet.  Over under is 16 for BOS. If BOS gets less than 16, I get banned for a month, and if BOS gets more, you get banned for a month. Btw, the offer to meet in person at the next gtg and settle our differences with our fists is still on the table. 

You’re out of your mind sir. No reason for me to be banned. You’re the only one on the chopping block and you did it to yourself. Good luck

What’s the over under for getting this guy banned? 12” BOS-ORH?

Despite rates earlier, roads are pretty messy with a couple of inches of snow/sleet. Peltfest now

Rates are crap here. Maybe we can squeeze out an inch before the changeover?

BOX is very unimpressed with this. Has nothing (snow and ice) inside 128, less then 1” 495 including ORH and 1-2 up the border.

I don’t think accusing someone of being bipolar and “off their meds” is a comparison. You are just being a dick for no reason because my posts annoy you, that’s it, and you used mental illness as an insult. What a bitch move pretending you were making a “comparison” rather than just being a dick because you don’t like my posts. Im with you on the anti PC thing though, so how about this? There is nothing I hate more than fake “tough guys” hiding behind a keyboard and talking shit. At the next GTG, you and me meet outside half an hour early and settle our differences with our fists. If you show up and win the fight, then maybe I’ll start listening to what you have to say. If not, I don’t ever want to see your miserable ass replying to my posts again. You don’t reply to my posts, and I won’t reply to yours. 

So you’re so upset by an off your meds comment yet you want to use violence against me? Lol. This place really is great. 
This is just clogging everything up. Mods please delete all this nonsense, mine included. I’m done on this subject.

Btw, that making fun of mental illness nonsense was unnecessary. People actually struggle with that shit you know, it’s not a joke. Seriously, go fuck yourself for that. 

It wasn’t meant to make fun of, it was a comparison. Please don’t bring out the PC crap and turn it into that. Take that stuff elsewhere

I’ve been burnt quite a bit after making posts like this, but man the upcoming pattern looks exciting. Better than anything we have seen all winter. I could be conservative and say “tamed down 2018, etc”, but fuck that! Extreme weather can and does happen, and there are signs that it’s coming on the models. Im calling for eastern Mass to finish the season with above normal snowfall, that’s how much snow I think we will get in March. Yes, there is a western trough but with the strong blocking expected to develop the SE ridge will be suppressed south with a broad conus trough in place. 

Weren’t you just posting no even 12 hours ago about how much rain was coming and that you were done with this winter? Now you’re back to your old ways with these neurotic posts. 
Get back on the bi-polar meds, George and quit posting crap like this until there’s multi model consensus inside of 3 days, please

Why is the Jersey guy laughing at everyone’s posts about north trends!

Because he’s one of the many posters down there that are obsessed with Boston/SNE weather in the winter. If they’re missing out the next focus is on here, hoping that we get screwed too. It’s very much a jealousy thing. 
I know cause I used to be one. Would never come in here and throw it in your faces though like these guys do. Pretty childish. 

Big dog potential on the back end of that blocky look. Think everyone (save for a few aforementioned posters) would sign for that then call it quits.
Step 1 is to get that look to verify to begin with. Looooong ways to go

this is a pretty classic progression with the cutoff Scandi high retrograding towards the Davis Strait. same way we got that December block

Looks good for now. 
Omega and tblizz gone for now, will return if 00z takes a step back.

So I just saw the oddest thing. I just so happened to flip through the three  different stations here in Connecticut for the weather. Both WTNH and WVIT are calling for temperatures in the upper 30s to low 40s from next Wednesday on. They both show chances of mix or snow and/or rain... something wintry. Wfsb however Shows temperatures next Thursday at 60? Something seems off. It just seems way odd like they're almost taking this week and putting it into next week. I almost feel like they made a mistake lol

It’s a week out. News forecasts can vary greatly at that lead time, really any forecast can vary greatly that far out. Not that odd.  

Work for Commuter rail. The amount of issues on Saturday morning were like nothing the infrastructure has ever seen before. Multiple signals just stopped working, hundreds of frozen switches, crossing gates not operating and the worst of them all- broken rails everywhere. About 75% of service on Saturday had to be canceled or had severe delays (more than 30min late). Afternoon improved as issues were fixed and things stated thawing (being able to operate in regular cold) but there were residual issue until Monday morning. 
Waaaay more problematic than a snowstorm/blizzard or any type of record heat.  
Truly a once in a generation event 

-10 here. Wonder if Logan hit -10 between hours 

-8 now. Coldest ever for me. 
Does Logan hit -10 by morning?

-5 in Chelsea. 
Logan has 2 hours to break the daily record. A degree an hour is very doable
