  1. Temps or are you worried about the best stuff going south? Seems like if you end up with an inch of QPF but 925mb is like -3C during the bulk of the good stuff, you'll pound paste.
  2. GFS has another clipper right behind the 2/17-18 system. Active northern stream.
  3. A lot of good cross-hair sigs showing up on different pieces of guidance.....if QPF is around an inch, wouldn't be surprised to see some of the hills get 15"+ since they can prob go 15 to 1 or better on the ratios with that look. Might be tougher to pull those ratios lower down where it's more like 32-33F.
  4. Actually I may have spoke too soon on 2/18...that's still a decent look and close to the NJ model low that @Typhoon Tip and I were discussing.
  5. GFS juiced up the clipper this run...but the 2/18 threat looks weaker behind it.
  6. H7 low basically tracks over southern shore of LI to Block Island or maybe just a touch S of BID on the GFS....that's a great spot for HFD/ORH/BOS.
  7. There;s your NJ model low on the ICON....GFS was close at 06z, we'll see if it comes aboard at 12z.
  8. Yeah it's wringing out all the QPF where the best 850-900 forcing is...I'd expect to see that when you have a really weak vort and a more rounded trough....not a neg tilt with a strong vort.
  9. Funny how the Reggie QPF is so paltry again outside of SE MA but the H7 fronto is in the roughly same spot as NAM
  10. ICON is south of 06z....though the 06z ICON was easily the furthest north model. The 12z ICON is going to look a lot like the 12z NAM
  11. Agreed....QPF is very useful, though even that can be iffy at times, but QPF is an order of magnitude better than snow maps. When it comes to coastals, give me some good Mid-level maps with fronto and a few soundings....the QPF map can then be used with those other variables to get a more accurate picture of the potential snowfall.
  12. Going to be a sharp cutoff....I don't think it goes from like 10-12" to 2" in 10 miles....but it could go from 12" to about 5-6" in 15-20 miles.
  13. I've become more and more disillusioned with clown maps...they are lazy and often too wrong...looking at mid-levels and soundings is way better.
  14. 12z NAM so far seems to have more northern stream interaction through 18h vs 06z....so we'll see if this bumps back a touch NW with the precip shield.
