The 10/10/79 storm was def more anomalous than this one....at least for most of SNE. You can argue right on the immediate coast near BOS that this one was clearly more anomalous due but anywhere off the water that isn’t the case. This is pretty high on the list though even for a place like ORH. Prob only ‘79 and ‘11 were more impressive.

Snowpack is still total powder and sparkling at this hour in the flood lights. It looks like a mid winter evening. My son had a blast shoveling and building a snow slide, lol

Gotta watch Tuesday morning for windexy type squalls. Crazy to be talking about that a couple days into November after already getting a legit October snow event for many.
-
Your area may even get some commahead backlash synoptic stuff....which of course may be upslope-enhanced too. The trend has been to really redevelop that low over S Maine or even a little further south near BOS.
-
This snow looks like mid-winter snow. Just the consistency of it. Seeing it a little bit fluffy.
-
Steady as she goes....slow exit
-
RGEM was putrid. NAM def did well...Euro did too. EE rule!!!
-
HRRR earlier really nailed this final burst moving through eastern areas now. It had it strengthening the the whole time while some other guidance was weakening the ending.

Incoming for scooter to T-blizz....this band went through here a little while ago and was ripping.
-

Yeah I was sort of giving a dry understatement by saying "not often"....lol. In fact, my bet is that Logan has never been 30F or colder at this hour in October since records were kept. I think Brian (dendrite) has previously posted temp records on an hourly bases for stations...I wonder what BOS record cold is for October during the midday hours. This has to be it.
-
Not often to see Logan Airport at 30F in early afternoon in October
-
That band is really starting to crank as it moves east. Still a ways to go for eastern folks...esp SE folks.
-
Yeah it is kind of surprising it didn't. You look at Blue Hill and see plenty of 1-4" events and then a couple 6"+ events (1979 and 2011)....you figured somewhere BOS had enough N wind or NNW during a snow event in October to get a couple inches, but I guess not.
-
No, that pic is from Holliston. I've been driving around today though.
-
Scooter, I checked Hingham coop, looks like their record (since 1960 when the coop started) is 1.0" in 1962.
-
BOS is a total pit....really anywhere right near the coast is so hard to get legit Oct snow. I'm sure it's a bit different for some place around Sharon or Foxborough (hell, we all remember the 3" in 2009 during the Patriots game there)
-
Haven't got an official report from BOS yet, but I think they must have already broken their biggest October snow on record? Logan's previous record was 1.1"
-
You can kind of see it slowly strengthen already
-
HRRR actually strengthens that band out west as it moves into E MA/RI in the next 2-3 hours. Could see another 1-2".
-
He's in Westborough
-
Def getting some redevelopment on the backside...some weak fronto going on there still
-
Pushing 4” now
-
Getting smoked right now.... Incoming for Ginxy too in the next few min if not already
-
Snow is getting dry too. Temp down to 29F
