ma blizzard

let me know we see something like this again (5/77 500 mb):

any more so than the people debating what constitutes leaf out?

take into account typical GFS BL issues and you have an interesting solution to say the least

pretty wild.. stepping out for a morning run and its 70/57 at KBOS at 830 am on 4/19

def could be brief zr out there too .. maybe thats why they issued? but no mention in text hmm

18z GFS is epic .. talk about a west based -NAO delivering

surprised you aren't tired from shoveling the 2"-4" you forecasted for yesterday what are we thinking for next week? I'm hedging towards a 4/87 redux sometime mid-month, but maybe it will turn out more like 4/97

For sure! Sat looks like borderline top 10 type day .. I can see Sunday going both ways but I'd be weary E/NE MA

Last April, I believe it was 4/15 we had that absurdly cold low lvl airmass where it was spitting snow grains mid day with temps in the mid 30s .. IIRC had some zr and pl overnight before it flipped to rain. So yeah GFS is prob on an island on this one, but in a perfect scenario I'm sure its possible for something like the 12z run to verify one day ..

that GFS solution is so absurd .. like a 2-3+ day mixed precip event in mid April

localized 1"-3" that melts by midday Saturday - sounds exciting

he may have been in subsidence on the NW side of the monster deform band that crushed IJD-ORH-LWM

always cool to see the surface maps of the biggies: https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0477(1983)064<1258%3AAAOTO>2.0.CO%3B2
