Wow it’s raining in Randolph? What a disaster 

Yup...some snow mixing in but wet pavement 

Will this turn back to snow? Hyde park Dorchester and Randolph all basically rain/mix... wondering if we should send plow trucks home or keep them out

What is the timing of this looking like? What time does it look like accumulating snow will start and end 

Is this something that will stick to pavement in the Boston/ Foxboro area.we have all our plows and sanders put away trying to decide what needs to be put back on if anything?

Any chance this tics back to something like what the euro had this morning for south of the pike or is it likely just gonna stay with the current idea.

GFS still looks good for Wednesday. It's basically had the same solution for like 10 runs now. 

What is it showing?

Plow guy asking for a forecast should hire you lol, give you 10% of every contract.  Easy 500 bucks on the side a storm with a good contractor. Money to be made in post storm analysis too. Man I wish I had gone into Met instead of Envi.  Under the table ching can be had with the right contractors 

It definitely helps a lot being able to ask on here. It’s always a tough call on what to plan on and tell everyone for storms like this and you guys help a lot.

What’s this looking like for the Boston area/ south of Boston towards Foxboro. Will this need to be plowed or is it just a little snow that’s gonna get washed away right after

What’s the approximate start and end times of this looking like

12z GFS is a hellacious front end thump N of the Pike.  

Anything decent south of the pike or should i get the umbrella out 

How widespread are these squalls looking to be? Pretty good coverage of more hit or miss?

What’s everyones thoughts on the pattern going forward? Any chance of a decent snow in sne anytime soon or do we seem to be stuck in this pattern? It would be nice to have something to track

Some snow in the Boston metro area - I'm assuming 'metro' is what you're after? 

Once past January we get into the seasonal SST nadir in the Harbor and GOM regions... and with CAD (cold air damming) nosing down, ... warm contamination from the nearby ocean becomes less factored.

That's A

B... the standard metric, the 850 mb isotherm, is agreed upon by the more dependable guidance types (and the associated synoptic reasoning) to align somewhere S of the city... while the best forcing for QPF is passing through. 

There is some wiggle room with these considerations ... barely.  But, that's the way it looks to me now, and I'd think a burst of light to moderate snow by < 4" is the more plausible result, barring any such wiggle.  Keeping in mind, we have 4 solid days from 00z guidance last night ...so this isn't the Dead Sea scrolls.

Yeah more like the Dedham/ Hyde park area. Also Sharon foxboro mansfield area. 

Havnt paid much attention to this one and am wondering if this has any potential to get snow in the Boston area? Have a few plow trucks that I need to fix and trying to decide if it’s worth me spending the whole weekend fixing them or if this is just gonna be more rain.
