    I don't see this storm going over 15 hours for us here in Eastern Southern New England.

    I was looking through the "KU" book carefully. One "weak" but potential storm analog is the December 10-13 1960 Northeaster (La Nina Winter). Again a weak analog. However, in the "Near Misses" section, there are a couple that come close. Need to be closer to the potential event before even I can narrow this down to anything similar in this potential set-up.

    Rays thoughts are correct. The only question right now since it's 4-5 Days out is how close or how far off shore this main surface low tracks. We all know the drill. Clown maps are fun to look at but we'll all see what the reality is on the ground Thursday in our neck of the woods. However, it is nice to see the heart of our viewing area in the crosshairs for this potential snow event.

    Not sure about east being so bad. Here in Wilmington I picked up about 5.0" from the October 30th storm and 2.5" from the December 5th storm. Total so far 7.5. Not bad as far as I'm concerned.

    Man this thing is hailing its' butt.
  6. Greg
    Stated that same thing earlier.

    What I'm overall getting at is "Verticle Vorticity" When the precip rates are the most intense over you, it helps bring down the colder air from above.

    I can't believe that potentially the pre Halloween storm will have heavier snow totals vs this northeaster. I had about 5" in that, I'm actually wondering if it's at all possible to get close to that now given this radar.
  9. Greg
    Again folks, most precip intensity driven.
  10. Greg
    Many areas will be around freezing this evening and late tonight. The real key to the forecast for final accumulations rest on those bands hanging over you. Once it lets up, it becomes very showery in nature. So a very precipitation rate intensity driven storm. The storm track is fine, the airmass is debatable.
  11. Greg
    Track looks really good.
  12. Greg
    Center of the storm is still off shore just south/southwest of Nantucket moving northeast. Dryslot over the outer elbow of the Cape. Hopefully this Banding sets up just right so we can get some good snows to fall within this relatively short period of time left.
  13. Greg
    No, A dryslot. The center is still off shore, just barely south, southwest of Nantucket. You can see it on the satellite image.
  14. Greg
    Boston Weather Service seems to think the track is staying mostly off shore and not over the Cape and Islands as some but not all the models have. So that may be where the difference in thinking is. Which may translate to the potential heavier amounts shown.
  15. Greg
    It actually could on the low end of the scale of that. This will have better dynamics than the 4.3" storm before Halloween.
  16. Greg
    No. Different track, longer duration storm.
  17. Greg
    Tightly packed and wound-up system.
  18. Greg
    That's a little aggressive with the forward speed of this thing. Thinking Boston area Northshore 4-8", Higher Elevation from Central-Eastern CT, Worcester to Southeast NH to Eastern ME 8-12". Normal Measuring technique.
  19. Greg
    Not sure I totally agree with that statement. The - NAO depending on how far back with weather data you go generally indicates a fairly even percentage on that.
  20. Greg
    I saw a 1.5" reported in Charlestown at 10:36AM on the National Weather Service site. Been snowing at a decent clip since then.
  21. Greg
    These are some very good and honest reports. I really hope with this weak La Nina we can get a decent amount of blocking to get a good winter out of it. Here's to to keeping the hope alive.
  22. Greg
    3.0" inches of snow here on the glass porch table as of 12:05 PM. I did not expect this here. Still snowing.
  23. Greg
    Very rare inland October Bombs don't count.
  24. Greg
    Had about 2 inches on the nose here in Wilmington, MA as of 10:40 AM. Still coming down nicely. Highly unusual for October 30th.
  25. Greg
    Very nice to see this. Gets you into the holyday spirit.
