I’m back to highest rates of the storm. Solid moderate with a band intensifying overhead. Thinking the last quarter of this will really stack up this evening here.

This storm is remarkable in the sense that its heaviest snows are happening in the most densely populated areas. That banding that stalled over Philly last night, NYC sw CT and LI this and then Gloucester, Boston SE MA/RI CCB

Looks like a new mid level stalled band has formed - PWM-DAW-ASH-ORH

That’s not it; it’s also the powder here vs the heavy wet snow. Here we are trading worse visibility—with the blowing and drifting snow— for less outages.

Looks like central LI getting LI sound enhancement

The mid level track appears further north than guidance had it, seeing the slot flirt with the islands.

Looks like coastal NH getting into the blizzard conditions now

Notice I am in this zone but without an active blizzard warning

Man I thought nws lost these county line defined warning areas. Southeastern Strafford county NH should be in a blizzard warning area. Feel like this storm was taken too lightly around here.

Just clowns

Someone get this guy for loitering.

The numbers on LI are too low. Nemo did 24-30” on central LI and that was with a sharp cutoff in NY. Basically advisory level event just west of NYC. No deform snows just outside of NYC. This system in much better location and antecedent airmass. Losing basically nothing to white rain, rain or slot with this. Need to see range 24 - 30”; locally 3 ft.

Great map. I’m looking at this as a coastal storm in all respects.

This thing will come up the coast off shore. It has the mid level ridging to do it. I’m expecting a more impactful event up here to PWM. The latitude gain won’t translate well to points west though. That sharp cut-off on the western side is legit
