Oh, and I enjoyed watching local Mets slow walk the totals as their graphics hadn't updated. 1-3, statewide, no big deal. 1-3 with some spots of maybe 3-6, 3-6 but not too big a deal, 3-6 with some spots...
I love a positive bust.

Lots of drifting, but my average was 5.75. will be interested to see what the reports are, as my house isnt the best place to sample. Western parts of RI cleaned up. That's nice as they werent hit as hard by the blizzard. Heading to the cemetery with my skis.

Wow, and still a few to come.
Nothing beats a positive bust. Congrats.

We are just too south of this little band so far. Had dippin dots in the am. Better stuff now but it struggles to accumulate. 8 hours of snow in one form or another, and we have just under an inch.

Ground temps do not matter in sufficient rates..period! The sufficient rates will overcome any warm ground BS. It’s happening in most places currently as we speak.
The "sufficiency" of the rate is related to the ground temp. If you want a reduction to the absurd, go stick a griddle outside.

It’s not minimal temps here. It’s 26-27 degrees. That’s hardly minimal temps. The point is, in a lot of places it’s sticking to everything…as it is here. Roads covered and being plowed. Uptown just doesn’t forecast for the beaches. That’s a silly thing to say that the ground is too warm, cuz it’s clearly not in a lot of places that are in there forecast zones.
Perhaps It might have been more accurate to say, the snow won’t be heavy enough to accumulate on the roadways in some areas, especially right along the beaches, if the snowfall rates are lighter.
Yes, of course the antecedent temperatures matter, and the snow rate matter. It is a variable. It's not a switch. I'm just saying their casually applying it with a broad stroke is as silly as claiming the phenomenon doesn't exist.

Lol…folks that still buy into those silly myths are foolish. It blows my mind that NWS(upton) even says that stuff. Especially when you have arctic air spilling in on top of it.
How could it be a myth? It's basic physics. We have liminal temps, it didn't get below freezing until recently, and when I laser temp a surface it's well above freezing. There's no snow accumulating on anything that retains heat. Yes, snow falling at decent rates would overwhelm that, but that makes a significant difference, since we don't have remarkable rates even in the bands right now, and it's a long duration low intensity event with lots of breaks for melting. There is a large break between this batch and any further sustained snow tonight. Road conditions would be more of a concern if antecedent temperatures were cold. Would they magically melt poundage? No, of course not.

From biking up the east bay bike path in a t-shirt to cross country skiing the next day? I'd love it.

No.

Some of the models show modest snow but over a long period of time, with some down time in between. That would tend to make actual effects fairly minimal impact.
Like, I could see getting 3 inches of snow but never really having much of anything on the road.
Plus there's no commute. I can see them expanding wwa west just a bit for that last pulse, esp given timing.

Really?
Yes. Though it went from some snow showers to maybe a wwa confined to the south east, which is kindof already within the envelope of plausible.

You really are autistic aren't you? Don't make fun of two of the greatest musical artists of all time dude. Their other senses more than made up for whatever you think they lacked.
See now this is actually irony, people... Calling someone autistic for making fun of the blind.

My kid has been out of daycare so much due to positive cases , and it has been so disruptive, that I'm feeling like if there's a storm its a win, and if there isn't it's a win too.

Snow-storm...compared to '78,
Eastern mass wx blogged about it...and fizzled the next day
It's a 3SD of the R-N-A
It's a jog west on the euro, 50 miles too late.
Isn't ironic, don't you think?
No, I don't think. You can't casually foretell irony. That's rather the point of irony.

Not sure why you guys are fighting. We all know this will end up with rain and ice there and 15” of powder here, in the place where snow wants to live.
Snow doesn't want to live there. It just can't afford to live elsewhere.

Sticking out into the Atlantic has it's advantages. I actually envy it. An ocean low farts and you folks shovel 18".
Sometimes the farts are liquid.

The gfs is still trending better. The depiction is still an odd strung out scraper without much organization, but any more trending and it's something of significance for the SE and it's already something for the cape.
No support from the euro.

Lets see how awful the models will be with this storm.
There isn't a storm of any relevance, except on some models. The only reason you have introduced the narrative of "the storm" and instantiated it is because of your reading of these models. Irony.
It would be more accurate to say, "Let's confirm, yet again, how awful humans are with probabilistic thinking."
Still, its something to hold our desperate interest for at least a couple days. Unless lest we continue bickering about who had to walk uphill both ways further in LESS snow than the other guy." Ok, that's wordy, but its a jumping off point.

It's definitely trending better, but good lord I'm picking through the trash looking at this.

Winter storm for the 25th of February is imminent.

I don't think I've ever seen a system like this where the shore didn't capitulate to rain almost immediately. Not that it really matters exactly how much there is when its all getting washed away.
I am rooting for the Berkshires though. Know a weenie up there who is probably staring at his snowshoes right now wondering where it all went wrong this winter.
Similarly, the people who live around the capital district. I mean, that in itself is enough punishment.
