Let’s get a Pineapple Express of cutters dropping 2-5” (Wes Fri Sat) then a bigger coastal or two in the next few weeks. Pattern is ripe and we don’t have many weeks of winter left

Some of the best rates yet in Arlington. Half an inch on the ground after just 20 minutes of shoveling. Praying that the newly formed band over BOS stays put for a few hours.

Thinking of taking a strategic map, for BOS what’s an estimate for timing the peak of the storm? HRRR seems to think maybe in the ballpark of 8 AM?

A few miles west of the city, we barely cracked an inch an hour ago. But the pace has picked up markedly the past half hour and the wind is howling

I wasn't planning on pulling an all nighter but at this point I might as well

I'm committed to staying up until the snow gets heavy because otherwise I'll be in a bad mood. Nowcast central

Road still doesn't have any accumulation. Maybe 0.25" 3 miles NW of Boston

Hasn’t even started snowing here yet

Night ruined

Pressure dropping at a steady 2mb/hr rate for the past 3 hours, went from 1000 to 996 according to SPC analysis. Around ~2mb deeper than the predicted timepoint

Just a few last minute ticks North would make a world of difference in northern Greater Boston, holding out hope for some last minute ticks NAM and HRRR are showing a notable northern component later in the storms evolution that wasn't present earlier, this could be a good sign

This is going to be a huge nowcast situation both for where the banding sets up and rots, but also the low pressure dynamics. All the higher end mesos and model runs yesterday show a stronger capture and slowdown, while the weaker ones shunt it east.

That or they prepared the advisory maybe an hour ago. I can see it now.. in the studio high-fiving, when in comes Larry the intern. He’s running the distance, running for speed, busting his butt across campus with news of the rug of the century. One look at the koochie and papers are flying and people are yelling.

I’m melting over anything less than 18”

Way ahead of you. Vodka cran or a classic G&T?
