  1. Effff even the big snow potentials at this point. 10 types a gawge out there now.
  2. 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.
  3. 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
  4. Looks like a new mid level stalled band has formed - PWM-DAW-ASH-ORH
  5. 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.
  6. Looks like central LI getting LI sound enhancement
  7. The mid level track appears further north than guidance had it, seeing the slot flirt with the islands.
  8. Looks like coastal NH getting into the blizzard conditions now
  9. Notice I am in this zone but without an active blizzard warning
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Great map. I’m looking at this as a coastal storm in all respects.
  13. 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
  14. Says the guy who eats squirrels and also is dumb enough to tell everyone that he does
  15. Awesome vis satellite view this morning with the back door push and block out of SE Canada. Beautiful morning here. Mostly sunny and a warm start. Snow melting in the sunny spots.Would never think a blizzard was brewing.
  16. Don’t want another under 10” snowfall. No thanks. Blizzard or gtfo
  17. Had those meso bands set up overnight and sit just to my south/east. Makes sense you ended up with a lot more. Careful shoveling
  18. I don’t know how people are measuring around here but it was a little less than 3” around 11:30 last night when I shoveled and despite the constant flurries and off-on light snow showers there’s nothing more than a coating. That said in terms of liquid weight the near 3” felt more like 8” of your average snow… This was the wettest snow we’ve had all season by far. Body is soar like I hit the gym hard…
  19. 40/30 Still faint sun through overcast.
  20. 37/27 and sky brightening through the overcast.
  21. Going long wet bulbing not the way to win a forecast with warm onset and easterly fetch. 12z NAM showing temp around 34 with td 32/33 tonight at least during first few hours. Not a recipe for stacking.
  22. The best rates look at onset and some of the short term guidance is flagging a loss to rain or white rain before transition to accumulating snow. Another reason to hedge against the 5”+ amounts
